Honors Student Derrion Albert's murder, one of hundreds of killings in the city annually, should serve as the flagship video for Chicago's attempt at securing the Olympics.

After all, decades of unbroken Democrat rule have successfully built a culture of urban dependency predicated upon easy access to welfare, food stamps and other "free" social programs. These, in turn, have led to a dramatic increase in  concomitant rise in violent crime.

 You don't support your own country getting the olympics?

 

Is that what you're saying?

 

 

 

LOL I see you're from SC.  AKA America's most violent crime ridden state.

What region has the most murders?  Oh ya, the south.

I'm really torn on this one Sabiancym,i want us to get them but "damn" Chicago.In order for them to get the Olympics they will have to wall some neighborhood just to keep the visitors safe.

The economy is on fire,Afghan,needs troops,heath care,and he THE ONE is off lobbying for the Olympics.Something is wrong here...

Chicago in 08' had the highest murder rate in all the states.

Actually, NO an emphatic NO, I do not want my country to get the Olympics. Do you think it will be free? Fuck no, the American taxpayer will once again get fucked in the ass paying for this. Also fix your shitty city and state before you host something like the Olympics.

In America I have bad teeth. If I lived in England my teeth would be perfect.

If Obama wasn't from Chicago this thread wouldn't even be here.

 I guarantee it.

 

 

I live here.  It's a great city.  I'd think my opinion has a little more weight than yours.

Nope. The Olympics are a joke. Anything labeled as a "competitive sport" is allowably submitted as a competition.

I do not believe it to be the responsibility of the President to throw sales pitches, no matter what city.

I agree with the Olympics being a waste of money. The only people who benefit from it are people working in tourism.

Because people who come to the olympics don't eat, so restuarants won't make any money.

 

 

Please, it'll stimulate damn near everything in the city.  They're projecting to come out billions ahead.

I was refering to restaurants as well when I spoke about it.

Sportmanship is fine and all, but it quickly loses it's value for me when that so called sportmanship costs millions and millions of dollars.

Pride? What pride? the only ones who really deserve to be proud are the athletes. Everybody else has a false sense of pride because one of the winners turned out to live in the same country. Big deal.

Would you say the same thing about the military?  I've never been to war, so is it safe to say that America has never won any wars, just the people who actually fought in them?

 

 

 

We're out anyway.  Rio will probably get it.

How much tax payer money was spent on trying to promte this in the first place? Not only promote it, but actually go there and lobby for it? WE are broke, we have no money for frivilous ventures right now.

The Olympics, as it is now, does not mean a single one of those things.

Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

I don't know and I don't care. At least we aren't paying the full amount for the Games. Remember the cup is half full.

You guys will complain about anything and everything as long as it relates to something liberal.  If this were Dallas no one here would be complaining about it. 

 

I live here.  I have always lived here.  I don't want to hear some small town rednecks telling me how dangerous my own city is when they live in a town 100 times smaller.  I know no one who has ever been mugged, assaulted, murdered, etc.  I feel completely safe walking around.  The places where crime does happen often are far away from downtown and anywhere that anyone coming to the city to visit would actually be.

 

You know nothing of my city.  So shut the fuck up about it.

Ever been to chicago? Its pretty dam clear when you've hit a bad part of town and its pretty well split between north and south. If it all take place on the north side then it be fine.

First, I have never supported building a 1.5billion football arena. So I am not sure why you are bringing up football arenas.
 

Though I can see the use in building a football arena if it is going to be used continuously for years to come and it actually brings more than 1.5 billion in revenue. If it is a long term investment to a city, That is their perogative to use it to generate revenues.

I think you just have a massive massive political bias against it.  Or you are in a crappy business and had a meeting on the lower south side.

 

No one can walk down Michigan avenue and say Chicago is a filthy city unless they have a serious grudge against the city.
