Mother loses fourth child
to Chicago gun violence

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Shirley Chambers of Chicago had four children - three boys and a girl. Now they´re all gone. Chambers will bury her son, Ronnie Chambers, on Monday. He was the last of the single mother´s children - all victims of gun violence in Chicago over a period of 18 years. "I was in shock, truly, because I´m just knowing that Ronnie´s going to grow up and be an old man. That was in my heart," said Chambers, 54. The loss of four siblings to the same fate illustrates the depth of Chicago´s stubborn gun violence problem

Comments:
Emmanuel now wants the authority to enter the homes without warning or warrant of lawful gun owners in the name of enforcing the FOI card requirements.

No word on what he plans to do about the criminals.

She lost her child to GANG violence. But they don´t want to talk about that. Might insult some of the White House VIP guests.

Let´s get it straight. It is not GUN violence. The streets of the worst Chicago neighborhoods are not overrun by packs of guns, just lying in wait for someone to walk by so they can go off on their own.

If Chicago were beset by a wave of attacks by rabid dogs, we would not see headlines decrying the "tooth violence," and we would not hear calls to pull all the teeth from the mouths of chipmunks, squirrels, and horses. That would be rediculous. The rational response would be to remove the mad dogs from the streets.

Even though his Rap Sheet was over 100pgs long he´d "turned his life around" and was mentor/music producer for the rising star "Yung Killa"...Cabrini Green-tore down black owned homes/businesses and provided "free"Govt. housing, Govt.healthcare, Govt. schooling, Govt. Food, Govt. daycare, Govt. Transportation, Govt. adult Education, Govt. counseling, Govt. protection, and all they asked was that you vote for more Govt....and more Democrats. Single mother living off of the Govt. her WHOLE life...now has nothing but a broken heart from broken Promises. (Bet she still votes for ´em too)

I feel for the poor mother. I can imagine that relocating to a safer place would have been a challenge financially, but surely there was some way she could have managed it. Instead she chose to keep them in that dangerous environment. And it was a choice.

No, not lost to gun violence. Lost to a primitive, vulgar, violent "culture".

I moved my family out of the city for their protection. I suppose the addiction to government bennies is to addictive to give up, but surely she could have moved to a smaller town in Illinois and kept her government goodies. Wild horses could not keep me in a god forsaken place like Chi-town after the first one got killed.

Not to be crass, but Chi Land stories seem to all run together at this point. So many of these children who are killed by a gang member PULLING THE TRIGGER OF A GUN after it is pointed at a living being They seem to believe they are performing the abortion but way past the due date. Doesn´t death ever take a holiday in that town?

#11, that was totally uncalled for. It isn´t ALL blacks that live in these circumstances...and it isn´t only blacks either.

Yes, I feel bad for the poor woman. I know that people should try to do what they can to better their lives and protect their children. But what folks seem to forget is that these people have been conditioned for generations by leftist lies and policies. Their community leaders and "reverends" are also bought and paid for by the Democrat party to ensure that these people are held down, don´t dare question their "benefactors", pressure the people through peers if they try to change things, and keep them dependent. The people don´t think they can do any better. There are no jobs, their schools are horrible, and the women are practically expected to become single welfare mothers. The Democrat Party destroyed them and they love the fact thar these "undesirables" (remember progressives believe in eugenics and think some people are inferior) are killing each other. It is criminal.

Yung Killa? That´s disappointing, but not as disappointing as the parish priest´s comments. I´m thinking number one on the problem list is no daddy at home, not mentioned at all by the priest. (Nice one, #8). Shouldn´t the priest working on getting his flock to marry before having children?


Reply 16 - Posted by: The Architect, 2/1/2013 8:19:17 AM     (No. 9151958)

The article says she is a "Single Mother", but doesn´t say if her husband is dead, or if there ever was a husband. I´m thinking its just a string of "Baby Daddies". This all could have been avoided if she didn´t have an unwed litter of children. Or if she had maybe worked hard and tried to get them out of the environment they lived in instead of living off the dole. Oh yeah, and I´m sure that Ronnie´s "talent" and "Mentoring" of a rapper named "Yung Killa" was really going to take him places. Well, I guess things would have been far worse if they hadn´t lived in a city with the stricktest gun control laws in the country.

I find it hard to believe that 100% of this woman´s children were killed by random acts of violence. A little digging would probably uncover extensive gang ties for every one.

Unwed motherhood, and living on the dole in a housing project limits your choices in life, and this woman is living the consequences. My sympathy for her is limited.

It´s "a cliché" to say that America "is the greatest country on Earth," Pres. Obama told a DNC event in New York City on Monday. "And more than anything, what I will be striving for over the next three and a half years is to see if that spirit that I saw in Boston and West, Texas, if we can institutionalize that, if we can create a framework where everybody is working together and moving this country forward.

A high school student is fighting back after her senior photo was pulled from the school yearbook. The photo shows North Carolina senior Caitlin Tiller holding her now one-year old son. The school asked students to have their picture taken with something that best represents them or an achievement. Tiller chose her son because he represented her drive to stay in school. The school didn´t see it that way. Caitlin says she was told the picture promoted teen pregnancy. She sees it as a symbol of responsibility and love. "They should be proud that the students are willing to stay in school

A man whose bid to become a police officer was rejected after he scored too high on an intelligence test has lost an appeal in his federal lawsuit against the city. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York upheld a lower court’s decision that the city did not discriminate against Robert Jordan because the same standards were applied to everyone who took the test. “This kind of puts an official face on discrimination in America against people of a certain class,” Jordan said today from his Waterford home. “I maintain you have no more control

Obama administration
simplifies health care form

Washington - The first draft was as mind-numbing as a tax form. Tuesday the Obama administration unveiled simplified application forms for health insurance benefits coming next year under the federal health care overhaul. The biggest change: a five-page short form that single people can fill out. That total includes a cover page with instructions, and an extra page to fill out if you want to designate someone to help you through the process. But the application form for families still runs to 12 pages, although most households will not have to fill out each and every page.

For many patients, getting a second medical opinion is a common and often recommended endeavor; it helps people to get the most accurate diagnosis possible. But for one couple, the decision to get a second opinion for their baby boy’s illness ultimately resulted in police forcibly removing the infant from their California home, RT.com reported. Anna and Alex Nikolayev, a young Russian couple living in Sacramento, took their 5-month-old son Sammy to Sutter Memorial Hospital in Sacramento when he started to exhibit flu-like symptoms. The Nikolayevs had been taking Sammy to Sutter Memorial since his birth, when had been diagnosed with a

The Nation of Islam styles him its “Supreme Captain” — a potential successor to his controversial father, Minister Louis Farrakhan. But when he’s working for the Harvey Police Department, Mustapha Farrakhan is just a regular part-time cop. If, that is, he’s actually working for the Harvey Police Department. Farrakhan, 52, certainly has a police badge from the crime-plagued south suburb. He drives an unmarked Harvey Police squad

Janet Rogers was a school board president with two felony convictions — and Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan wanted to run her out of office. Madigan’s prosecutors put Rogers in jail for theft and fraud in 2004.And Madigan’s office believed Rogers had no business being on a school board in 2013. Earlier this year, Madigan’s lawyers asked a judge to boot Rogers off the board of Harvey Public School District 152 because she was “unlawfully holding and executing the office of a board member.”

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

Washington – Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-MO, issued a video statement Friday in response to reports that the Internal Revenue Service unfairly targeted conservative nonprofit groups. (Snip) “There’s a reason Lady Justice wears a blindfold in America. That is because in America, we don’t apply the law based on who you are, who you know, or what you believe. We apply the law equally.” “We should not only fire the head of the IRS, which has occurred, but we’ve got to go down the line and find every single person who had anything to do with this and make sure
