48 people were shot and killed in Chicago last month alone. Where is the outrage?
Raymond won’t even walk down 79th Street in Chicago I bet unless surrounded by 100 cops.

At a Democratic fundraiser, Barack Obama never used President Donald Trump's name but implied that he is using fear as a weapon. Do you agree? www.fox32chicago.com/news/obama-like-trump-grappled-with-family-immigration
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) - The Trump administration isn't the first to grapple with the question of how to handle tens of thousands of immigrant families stopped along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Four years ago, Barack Obama faced a similar crisis when record numbers of Central American immigrants fleeing violence began showing up at the border. Officials had to deal with the same court case the current administration began fighting Thursday, a day after President Donald Trump issued a new executive order to stop separating migrant families whose parents were arrested for illegally entering the country.
More than 60,000 family "units" - which the U.S. government defines as a parent and child - were stopped along the border in the 2014 fiscal year, a fourfold increase from a year earlier. In the last fiscal year, that number exceeded 70,000.

Obama....WTH is this guy’s real name for heaven’s sake. Does even he know?
Initially, the Obama administration released mothers and children with notices to appear in immigration courts in the cities where they were headed. At times, immigrants were transported from Texas to Border Patrol facilities in other states so agents could keep up with ballooning arrivals.
The Obama administration then moved to hold mothers with children in family detention facilities - a 100-bed center in Pennsylvania and two larger facilities that opened in Texas in 2014. Those spaces provided a few thousand beds.
Immigrant advocates opposed the move, arguing that minors couldn't be kept for long periods in these facilities because of a 1997 settlement agreement governing the treatment of immigrant children. A federal judge in Los Angeles agreed and ruled that the children could not be kept in detention.
At the same time, the Obama administration faced criticism when photos of children in cages at a Nogales, Arizona, facility became front-page news - reminiscent of what happened last week when similar images came out of Texas.
Republican critics blamed the crisis on Obama immigration policy and the administration launched public relations campaigns in Central America to warn people to not make the journey. The crisis became a big campaign issue in midterm races in border states like Arizona.
After the federal ruling, the government started releasing many families more quickly since short detention stints would neither deter immigrants from coming nor give immigration courts enough time to evaluate asylum claims, said Seth Stodder, a former assistant secretary of homeland security for border, immigration and trade policy in the Obama administration.
The U.S. government could erect more detention facilities, Stodder said, but resolving asylum claims quickly isn't so easy since immigration courts are backlogged with hundreds of thousands of cases and immigrants often need time to obtain evidence from their countries.
"It is less about whether there is space to put people. They can find space to put people. The real issue is legal," he said, adding that ankle bracelets or monitoring programs might help ensure immigrants show up for court without the need for continued detention.
The Trump administration has sought to deter immigration through a "zero-tolerance" policy announced in April that mandated the criminal prosecution of all immigrants caught at the border. Authorities began jailing the parents and sending their children to government-contracted shelters, sparking an outcry from immigrant advocates and many lawmakers.
After separating more than 2,300 children from their parents, the administration shifted course this week and said families would be detained together. Officials filed a request to change the rules governing the detention of children under the court settlement - a move that advocates for the children said they would oppose.
Another challenge the administration faces stems from claims by many of these immigrants that they are fleeing violence and persecution in their countries. After initial screenings, they may proceed in many cases to seek asylum.
A recent decision by Attorney General Jeff Sessions to narrow the scope of asylum cases based on gang or domestic violence might result in cases moving quickly. But Stodder said doing so could also lead to more appeals and possibly more challenges of immigration rulings in the federal courts.
"Due process will be had," he said. "The question is whether it is in the immigration courts or whether it is in the circuit courts."

@Kathryn44 how do you block
@V77 Curser on their name, right click and a menu drops down...block is on the list 😃
@Deleted User are you Nevr anywhere else online?

@Deleted User ok I know someone named Nevr.

Hugh Hefner was the Genesis of pedogate. Look up Brooke Shields and Eva Lonesco. Even Peter Fonda started with Shields in Wanda Nevada. Hefner's death was two weeks before the Las Vegas Massacre. Then Weinstein, then NXIVM, then Pedovores.
I’m so bummed.
PARIS — A notorious French criminal serving 25 years for murder made an audacious escape from prison Sunday after a helicopter carrying several heavily armed commandos landed in a courtyard, freed him from a visiting room and carried him away.
It was the second daring escape by Redoine Faid, who once blasted his way out of a different prison with explosives hidden in tissue packs.
His latest escape, from Reau Prison, took only “a few minutes,” France’s Justice Ministry said. Unarmed guards said they could do nothing to prevent it.
“Everything is being done to locate the fugitive,” an interior ministry official told Reuters.
Dressed all in black, two commandos wearing balaclavas and police armbands entered the prison to look for Faid.
They used a grinding machine to open the door to the visiting room, Martial Delabroye, a representative of the guards’ union, told BFM television.
The commandos used smoke canisters to hide from video cameras, and the helicopter touched down in the only part of the complex that was not covered by anti-helicopter netting, said another union member, Loic Delbroc.
When the chopper arrived, Faid was meeting with his brother in the visiting room.
A third commando was holding the pilot at gunpoint, union members said.
French media reported that the three men took the pilot hostage at a flying club in the Paris region.
He was later released with no physical injuries.
