• Yay for guns!

  The ban on handguns in Chicago has been overturned! Gun control hasn't done anything to reduce violent crime here and it's disgusting that citizens can't have a gun for defense of their homes and families. The criminals certainly aren't worried about buying, carrying, and using firearms. Now honest citizens have the opportunity to own the means to defend themselves. Even with the ban, you're more likely to be shot in Chicago than in Afghanistan. I think we had 50 shootings last weekend. Overturning the ban won't give criminals guns as they don't legally purchase them.

  Meanwhile, our southern border has plenty of gun and drug-toting Mexicans but there doesn't seem to be much of a response from the Feds. Cops are getting death-threats from Mexican gangs and somehow that's not a national security issue. The Mexican government can't or won't prevent drug lords from violating our borders for illicit purposes. We'll ship troops half way around the world to protect our country but we won't deploy a few thousand troops to secure our borders?

  Obama spent a year on healthcare but border security, the economy, and the oil spill are bitched about but not receiving nearly as much effort. He's asking for more stimulus money and encouraging socialist Europe to keep spending - and they ignored him. Obama is too liberal with money for Europe - 60% of their population supports price controls and money for failing industries! Europe has recognized that it can't spend its way out of a hole but the President of the United States just keeps digging despite being able to see the trouble they got themselves into.

  Big Government, Big Fail.
