President Trump announces a crackdown on illegal guns in Chicago and is sending in a special 20 man ATF task force.
I don’t know who developed the plan but it is the wrong approach.
Yes…I am crtitiquing a Trump announcement. We are Conpats not cheerleading tank sheep.
Here is why:
The plan addresses a symptom, not the cause.
The Chicago bloodbath is drug gang activity. Will a war on illegal guns work better than a war on drugs?
Will gangs stop killing each other without guns?
By focusing on it as a gun problem (in a city with extreme gun control laws) it distracts from the cause– out of control gangs. Nationally.
At Conpats. com we have said all along America is not serious about gun and drug problems until we start locking up gang members and reform the prison system so it isn’t a college level gang recruitment and training system at taxpayer expense.
Welfare and other support benefits must be taken from anyone in or associating with known criminal gang members.
There should be no gang associates in federal housing projects; they should be quiet neighborhoods not criminal breeding grounds police are not safe in.
Taxpayer financed housing projects should be an example of how to rejoin society not monuments to the failure liberals and conservatives have allowed to fester.
Gang related crimes and violence is government subsidized at every level from training in prisons to food and housing. This is insane and the cost to taxpayers and society as a whole are astronomical.
The burden begins with the birth of gang mamababies, spreads to schools that cannot deal with them then neighborhoods and businesses victimized by their rampages.
All along the way our subsidized medical care births them, nurtures their care, sews up their stab wounds and removes the bullets. Police and first responders clean up and sort out the mayhem. At taxpayer expense.
Costs for gang activity cripple city, state and federal justice and penal systems. Their drug distribution reaches far beyond their own neighborhoods creating more death and costs to society.
This is just the tip of a mammoth iceberg.
The failure in Chicago is more than just the obvious Democrat management failure that is always predictable.
Chicago is the poster child for decades of failure by liberals and conservatives who still are refusing to acknowledge the 800# gorillas in America.
Constitutional Patriots say it is time for governments to stop making taxpayers finance the crimes, costs and burdens of lawless American street gangs.
Mr President….it is bigger than illegal guns. It is a culture of crime. You cannot pull one tooth out of a bear and keep it from acting like a bear.
Stop making taxpayers support a violent nationwide army.
