10 Arrested in Student Brawl at Proviso East High School

What does that have to do with needing any legitimate reason for going after a party that has been in control around here for the last 75 years?

Did you want to try and find a Republican City that you can try to Compare who has the bigger failures? Are you that confused as to where there is more physical violence?

So you have nothing and didn't bother to find out if GOP-run cities have highschool brawls all the time.

In short, another rightwing troll thread.

No its not that I got nothing, that's you coming up with nothing.....I know what Chicago Stats are concerning violence. When you got something to muster up with. Then come back and see me. Course you wont find one to measure up with. As your only comparisons are more of those Democratic Controlled Cities.
 
Violence in general in Chicago is higher than anywhere in the country.

But for your amusement: City Mayors: US Mayors
Alberquerque
Fresno
Indianapolis
Miami
Oklahoma City

Only one you might have a case for would be Miami which has had an unswing in violence in the last few years. Chicago's school system is almost synonymous with failure and violence and the spending is outrageous.

Outstanding OC....! See, I wouldn't take the time to give validity to Red's premise. Seems she has devolved into attack debate much like others such as HoJ. That type of discussion is only meant for one reason, and that is to get you to violate the rules. In real life, I wouldn't give either the time of day.

However, right you are. Liberal spending down the rat hole of the public school system in cities like Chicago doesn't result in better education, or any greater understanding of making ones way in life along side of others, it only seems to generate places for more of the violent types to gather on one place.
 
Not to minimize your point, but I have to say that I don't recall any incidents of mass school shootings in Chicago's troubled schools - that seems to be entirely a disillusioned white youth thing. I'd rather see neither, but if I had to choose I'd rather see 300 students fighting it out, outside the school, only those who want to fight are fighting, and innocent children are not gunned down or murdered hiding under their desks terrified. The innocent ones here at least got to go home and avoid the mess.
Please tell me your being sarcastic here..... Have you been to Chicago? I'd bet not if this is your response Whenever I go south/southeast for vacation I take the longer route around the wind bag city and for good reason. And for you to compare one mental patient with a gun in a school to a whole culture of violence & corruption that is Chicago is just mindless.

So have you figured out how to show what policy caused this incident? An explanation as to why this type thing happens in wildly divergent geographic, socially and political areas? Anything of actual substance to go with the mindless insults?

Now Throw in Chicago having the Most Gangs than any other City in the US, plus what Politicians they work for.....imagine that, and they want to talk Violence within Democratic Cities. :lamo

I don't think it ruins my point at all. The numbers speak for themselves.
 
So have you figured out how to show what policy caused this incident? An explanation as to why this type thing happens in wildly divergent geographic, socially and political areas? Anything of actual substance to go with the mindless insults?
How about the high Tax policy that scares all the jobmakers away? How about a welfare policy that promotes sitting on your arse as opposed to forcing you to work if you want a check? How about Gun laws that disarm the law abiding citizen & make it easier pickings & more attractive to a criminal?
 
I don't think it ruins my point at all. The numbers speak for themselves.

Only to the uneducated. Let me help: correlation does not equal causation. I learned that concept over 30 years ago in public school. It is sad that so many don't understand.

One of my examples was from a school in Florida, part of the one of the 10 fastest growing counties in the US. Try again.

What was my point, Redress. What point was ruined? The top-ten cities winning the dubious distinction for most deadly cities in the country are all run by Democrats. That was my point. I suggested no causation. Only presented the facts. If you drew a conclusion from that, whose problem is it?

Heya IY. :2wave: As well as the Most Gang-violence, the most gang shootings, and the most with Schools filled with gang members. That's ALL of Chicagoland Area. City and Suburbs and ALL of Cook County. U know.....one of the most expensive places to live in the Country and the Most taxed. Home of the Chicago Machine and Democratic Utopia. :lol:

Isnt it funny how those that look for the expansion of government cannot see how those in government are Writing and making the Laws. Manipulating and controlling the money. Setting up the social standards. Controlling and manipulating their daily lil lives. From Cradle to Grave.

Yet they want to talk and make comments about Education. Try and mock ones intelligence. They do so in the PC world. Not on the Bricks not even in the work environment.

The ones that really make me chuckle. Are the ones that have never been anywhere to know anything. Nor the ones ever having to be in the mix.

And yet no one has managed to refute my point. Not You, not the OP, not any one can show the policies that caused riots in the schools that unlinked to, from just the past year and a half, and my list was hardly all inclusive. Wonder why you all fail to do that and run from the facts presented...
 
Perhaps this is sort of the chicken and egg thing.

In lower socio economic areas that are highly populated with blacks and hispanics it is quite doubtful you would see any of the Romney boys living. So it only seems to make sense that you aren't going to find that many Republicans living in that particular area. Hence it is only reasonable that the voters would be Democrats living there.
The Republicans tend to be the party of the rich and the Democrats tend to be the party of the working class and poor. I did say the word "tend" to be and not inclusive.

Yet you cannot even figure out from the Very first Post. That he didn't say a word about any Policies. Wonder why you tried to take things out of context in the first place? Did your education teach you to do that? What school was this? Are you sure those Teachers were actually teachers? From the very First Post.

A flood of more than 300 fighting students poured out of Proviso East High School on their last day of school May 31 and carried into the streets of Maywood for several hours, police said.At least 10 students were arrested, including a girl allegedly using two chef’s knives after being beaten down by other students, and the fight required more than 40 officers from neighboring agencies including Oak Park, Forest Park, Westchester, Bellwood and Broadview, according to the Forest Park Review.
Three students were taken to Loyola Medical Center with minor injuries, including one girl who was struck over the eye with a lock, the Review reported.

Well, isn't Chicago just a model for tolerance, live, and let live utopianism? Good Grief...What a blight these cities like Chicago, and Detroit are....Interesting that they both have been under progressive/liberal leadership for ever. Coincidence? I think not.

This took place due to your false connection to what he was saying in the first place and trying to deflect what was stated. Notice Nothing about equating policies.

Musta been due to the fact that he pointed out this happens in Chicago and Detroit. Noticing it happens moreso Under progressive/liberal leadership.

See when you start to talk about education and all that.....first look to common sense before trying to apply your book methodology. Ya might want to check out the Liberal Writer R.L. Hubbard. Start with that I'm Okay.....Your Okay! ;)

Btw.....get back with me when you are done with the Basic book course in logic 101.

There was really no need for this type of buffoonish response, the I beleive J-macs main point was that citys (especially Chicago) that live under more progressive policys seem to have more of this type of violent behavior. Maybe you could address that point instead of trying to turn it into something it isnt.

If God gave America an enema, He would stick it in Chicago. I take the long away around too. On the outskirts of the city, I can hear the faint cries and the gnashing of teeth. Chicago is as close to hell as I have ever been. And, yes, the Bears SUCK!
