The man who coined the phrase Stuck on Stupid has some advice for the idiots
running Chicago: It’s time to bring in the National Guard to help stem the
carnage.
To reduce the homicides and shootings plaguing Chicago streets, elected
officials should consider calling on the state and federal governments for
help, even the National Guard if necessary, said a retired Army lieutenant
general who spearheaded the military response after Hurricane Katrina.
“Just like we do with any disaster. When the tornado comes, or the
floods come, the federal government comes in to help,” Russel L. Honore
said Thursday at a news conference in Chicago.
“Let’s not let this be about pride. ‘We are big ol’ Chicago, we are
too proud, we can handle this.’ Maybe you can’t handle it. If you need
help, get the federal government here. But let’s control the streets so
children and elderly people can be in a safe community.”
Of course since Chicago pols and the president are hopelessly stuck on
stupid they’ll never agree to something like this since it underscores
their own incompetence. Besides, they’re too busy demonizing law-abiding
gun- owners for their problems.
“Trust me, we can tap this down,” Honore said of the shootings. “It
would take a commitment, and it’s not going to be popular. Many people are
going to say why are you bringing that to my community? (But) do you want
law enforcement or do you want people shooting day and night and destroying
the lives of innocent people like the little girl who lost her life here a
few weeks ago?” |
