By AWR HAWKINS – 19 Jun 2022 – for Breitbart.news My cmnt: This death and mayhem goes on in Chicago and other large democrat-run (sometimes for generations) cities perpetually and endlessly with democrats continuing to do absolutely nothing about it. Why don’t they scream and cry for more ‘gun control’ laws? Because they damn well know that they are powerless to disarm the young, black men who do most of this shooting – strictly because of their politics. Stop and Frisk in New York City took so many illegal (and they are ALWAYS illegal) guns out of the hands of … Continue reading Report: 32 Shot Friday into Sunday Morning in Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago

By AWR HAWKINS – 10 May 2021 – for Breitbart.news My cmnt: I have posted several of these columns on this website previously. We are trying to draw public attention to the blatant, disgusting hypocrisy of the Left by showcasing a corrupt, democrat-run (for about 100 years) city that cares not at all that blacks are being shot and murdered by other blacks on a daily basis but will burn the country down for the rare times a white cop shoots a black person in the act of resisting arrest while committing a crime. At least 26 people were shot, … Continue reading At Least 26 Shot Mother’s Day Weekend in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago

By AWR HAWKINS – 21 Dec 2020 – for Breitbart.news In Chicago, 4,005 people have been shot this year. That is 1,400 more than 2019. My cmnt: Trolls like to make a big deal about a misleading statistic. They point out that the shootings or murders per 1000 people makes Chicago relatively safer than many other cities with higher rates. That would be true if the shooting/murders were spread evenly across the entire city but they are not. They are concentrated in the ghettos and occur among mostly people of color (i.e., blacks shooting blacks). This is what Mayor Lightfoot is culpable for. Guilty, … Continue reading Over 4,000 People Shot Across Mayor Lightfoot’s Chicago in 2020

By AWR Hawkins 23 Nov 2020 – for Breitbart.news My cmnt: It is becoming hard for me to understand why democrat-run cities are allowed to continue to be home to violence and murder. Yet it is nothing new. Perhaps it is just the inevitable result of creating hopeless welfare states of uneducated boys and men with no futures. Or it will go on as long as democrats need 90% of their vote to keep getting re-elected. People dependent upon the taxpayer for their jobs and livelihoods tend to vote democratic so the gravy just keeps flowing. Fifty people were shot, … Continue reading 50 People Shot, 5 Killed, over Weekend in Mayor Lightfoot’s Chicago
