Re: Chicago

In the final days of her tenure as Attorney General and head of the Department of Justice, Loretta Lynch telephones Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel and says, "Pot, this is kettle. You have a problem."

And the Chicago Tribune even posts a weekly-updated map and list of the most recent shootings in Chicago. The year ended with 4,368 people shot and 762 murdered; 2017 has already seen 104 shootings. There were 480 murders in 2015, the most in the city since 1997. They positively shattered that record in 2016.

Questions for Chicago:

1) How's that ultra-left Obama crony Rahm Emanuel workin' out for you as mayor?

2) How are some of the nation's strictest gun control laws workin' out for you?

3) Is it any surprise that Chicago saw the greatest population loss of any major U.S. city in 2015? The only one of the 20 most populous cities to lose population? The greatest population loss of any Metropolitan Statistical Area in the U.S.? The first population decline in Chicago in 25 years?(http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/loca ... story.html)
