There’s a sort of mumbled “saying” here in the Mahoning Valley …
“When “The Mob” ruled here, there was little [urban] crime” …
Don’t know how true that was/is (I was a youngster during the heyday of “The Mob” here in Y-town).
April 23rd, 2008 at 3:58 pmWell well well…. I just don’t know how this can be, Chicago is a gun free zone. On my way to work everyday, I see a sign that says if I bring a gun to Chicago, I go to jail. Apparently, there are people not paying attention to the signs. I’m sure according to Rev. Wright, it’s white people exterminating black people.

April 23rd, 2008 at 5:06 pmIs the MSM keeping a running death toll???? Maybe we should just surrender now for peaceful ends? Pull all the troops out, after all the freedom fighters only know one way to live right?
