Death Records Now

Just yesterday there were 26 gang related shootings in Chicago. Obama has a voting record on this issue and it has been reported that he voted "NO" in Illinois on making gang members elgible for the death penalty if they kill someone to help their gang, and opposed legislation aimed at cracking down on gangs (HB1812, 2001). So, if he can’t or won’t help change Chicago, how will he help/change America? It seems like Chicago people need their leader at a time like this and he is no where to be found. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/21/us/21chicago.html
Some of you think it is the Mayors job – the mayor didn’t vote against legislation on tougher penalties against gang killings; Obama did.

Well – I have a friend who currently is living in Chicago and has reported seeing him getting his hair cut. So I guess Obama is making change in Chicago in terms of his hair.

will that mean addicts can take a trip to Mexico for a trip and not get arrested? Border towns may have to thank Mexico for the increase in real estate market.

And for the record, I side with Mexico with their approach. It’s the only sensible alternative to thwarting crime and death from enforcement which has failed miserably.

So, what is your opinion of Mexico legalizing the possession of heroin, cocaine and marijuana?

Reference:


Hooray for the government of Mexico’s respect for individual freedom. Consenting adults should decide for themselves (with easy access to factual information to base the decision on, of course) whether they wish to take the risks involed in using mind altering substances like marijuana, tobacco, cocaine, caffeine, alcohol, etc … not have Nanny Government make their decisions for them. I hope that Act 2 is Mexico giving the USA the same message Canada gave us when asked to cooperate with our efforts to enforce Alcohol Prohibition: "Enforce your own stupid law."
