Honestly, no matter how diligently comedy writers slave at their craft, the politicians trump them by just walking around and blabbering.
Chicago's murder rate is skyrocketing. Now, this could not possibly be attributed to the fact that Mayor Rahm(bo) Emanuel, former Obama Chief of Staff is not remotely up to the job of actually running anything, only in manipulating the system to get himself and his kind elected.
Governance, what's that?
It has to be SomeoneElse's fault, preferably George Bush, but blaming Bush for this particular tragic mess won't even pass the laugh test amongst the most rabid Chicago Democrats.
Sooooo.....if we can't stop the craziness, let's......make money from it! That's the ticket! We'll just tax the bejeezuz out of every gun and round of ammo sold in Cook County!! That'll solve the problem, by golly!
Right?
Huh?
What do you mean, people will just drive to St. Charles or Geneva or Wisconsin to purchase guns and ammo? They wouldn't dare!
What's that you say? The gang-bangers who shoot up entire neighborhoods aren't interested in obeying gun laws? You mean to say they're criminals, not victims of a racist society? You don't think the tax will matter to them, but that it might discourage the law-abiding from defending themselves?
Nooooo....no chance of that.....
