Chicago July 4th Weekend Shootings of Blacks Dwarf Sandy Hook, Media Uninterested

Posted by Brian

I don't celebrate this. It pisses me off. 74 people shot. 12 dead. Since Wednesday! Over 200 killed this year, or more than 1 per day.  Yet the media are virtually silent, concentrating instead on a San Francisco plane crash that killed two people. Perhaps the fact that the vast majority of the Chicago victims are black has something to do with it.

In Newtown, Adam Lanza killed 26 people, including 20 children, and the media goes ballistic.  The media also had a field day with the shootings in Aurora, CO, and at Columbine.  The common theme among those shootings is that the victims were white.

The vast majority of the people dying on the streets of Chicago, Detroit, Washington, DC, and many other gun control meccas is that the victims are black or another minority. Plus, it's not white people killing blacks. It's black on black crime.  This doesn't fit the media for a good story.  Tip for the media: The story is not the race of the people being killed, or who's doing the killing.  It's the horrendous numbers of people being killed as a direct result of strict gun control laws.

Chicago's (and New York's, Washington, DC, etc...) gun control laws, touted by politicians and so-called experts as a blueprint or the rest of the country, prove time and again that they do not make Chicagoan's safer, but actually make people targets for the criminal element who do have guns.

While Obama and the rest of the leftists in this country try to make it harder and harder for law-abiding citizens to get firearms and ammunition for their own protection, those cities where they have been successful with strict gun control laws look like shooting galleries for the criminals.
Meanwhile, in places where concealed carry is lawful, and law abiding citizens are able to own and obtain firearms easily, crime statistics plummet.  It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out the connection.
We as citizens need to start pointing out the hypocrisy, and complicity, of the media in keeping Americans ignorant of the real statistics and deadly results of gun control laws.

Posted at 8:15 am on December 27, 2012 by Twitchy Staff

Former President George H.W. Bush is surrounded by family in the ICU of Houston’s Methodist Hospital as he fights a “stubborn fever.” Doctors are “cautiously optimistic,” but the 88-year-old “remains in guarded condition.”
Thoughts and prayers flooded Twitter Wednesday as news of Bush’s illness spread. But the stomach-turning death wishes and plans for ghoulish celebrations weren’t far behind. Here are just some of the repulsive haters salivating over the possibility that Bush won’t recover.

New Ad: Romney, Bain Capital Now Responsible For Deaths

Posted by Brian

If the Obama campaign and his Super PAC surrogates are having a race to see who can get to the bottom of the political cesspool first, there is a new leader. Priorities USA, an Obama Super PAC, has released an ad which essentially blames Mitt Romney for being the cause of death for a woman who passed away from cancer.

Priorities USA Hit Piece Ad

According to the Washington Post, the man in the ad is one Joe Soptic, who was laid off from his job from his job at GST Steel in 2001, when the company filed for bankruptcy.  This was a full year after Romney had left Bain Capital.  Mr Soptic's wife passed away from the illness in 2006.  Mr. Soptic claims that he lost his insurance when the plant closed, and was unable to get insurance.  She, however, had insurance through her employer up until 2003.  Mr Soptic also says that he thinks his wife knew she had cancer before she got sick, but was afraid to say anything because of the lack of insurance.  I feel sorry for this man's loss, but this guy is not just your average Joe six-pack that this PAC happened to stumble across.  If he looks familiar, he should.

Joe Soptic on DemocracyNOW with Amy Goodman

According to the Washington Examiner, he showed up back in May in an Obama ad blasting Bain for losing his job, and was unable to put his daughter through college.  He also complained to the leftist show DemocracyNOW that his pension was cut by $400/mo., which contradicted an earlier claim that the amount was $283/mo.  Whatever the amount, this guy is an Obama hack, and he is being trotted out to show how mean and cruel Mitt Romney is. Oh, did I mention that he said Bain was really mean to the union?  Did it occur to this guy that maybe he, and his union, might have some responsibility for the company going bankrupt?  That maybe the wages were over-inflated? Or maybe the benefits packages were too generous?  And that maybe because of some of these things, along with the price of steel plummeting during that time, the company couldn't produce a product which could be competitively priced on the global market, and still make a profit?  Just a thought.

One of two things is going on with this guy.  One, he is just a grieving widower, who is looking for someone, anyone, to blame for a series of unfortunate circumstances that have affected his whole life, and has decided to blame Mitt Romney for the situation he now finds himself in, and is being used by the Obama people.

OR, as I tend to think, Mr. Soptic is a partisan union hack getting his fifteen minutes of fame.

Regardless, this new Obama ad sets a new low for the 2012 campaign season, and one which will be difficult to sink lower than.  Not that Obama and his surrogates aren't entirely capable of getting even deeper into the muck.
