Chicago's homicide count eclipsed 500 last year for the first time since 2008. Chicago's homicide rate was almost double in the early 1990s, averaging around 900.
COMMENTS:
Chicago has the toughest gun control laws in the
country. Sorry Rahm & Barry, but I
have to tell it like it is. The fact is
that the cities and states with the LOOSEST gun laws in the country have the
lowest gun violence. Just ask the
FBI.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Yesterday, you were asked what Obama will do about the
criticism over the Superstorm Sandy mishandling and you didn’t really answer
the question. Is he going to crank FEMA
up, or not? (Georgette ~ Twin Falls, ID)
A. Historically, when he’s been justifiably criticized over
anything, he’s actually not done anything about it, although he may have squawked like a wounded tortoise.
I think that to him, any subsequent action on his part would be an
admission that he screwed up in the first place and his psyche simply can’t handle
that.
Q. AT&T Mobile is warning people that cell phones can
spread the flu? (Chelsea ~ Morgan Hill,
CA)
A. Yes, viruses are getting into everything, you know. Of
course, it goes back to your hands and what you touch including your cell
phone. They’re even recommending not
using your cell phone in public restrooms.
I once had a controlling boss who called me several times one morning
while I was in the restroom. I kept
ignoring the calls, but finally answered.
He was steaming and demanded to know why I had not been answering his
calls on the company cellphone. I held
it down next to the commode and flushed.
We got along fine after that.
Q. I heard yesterday that Hillary Clinton is now wearing
glasses designed to prevent double vision?
(Marguerite ~ Tucumcari, NM)
A. They say it may be due to her fall and concussion. Personally, I think it is a result of too much
double-talking.
