Obama's Chicago: Almost 500 Murders In 2012

From the Chicago Tribune: Hours after he was fatally shot, a small, shallow collection of blood stained the ground in the Southwest Side alley where Federico Martinez was killed.
As his neighbors and friends gathered around a small memorial commemorating the Gage Park man’s life, they struggled to make sense of his death.
“He was just telling me he was trying to straighten his life out,” said Alexis Nieto Davilla, 24, who said she knew Martinez from the neighborhood. “He wanted to become a good father for his kids. But he got gunned down.”
The murder of Martinez, 32, brought the city closer to 500 homicides this year, statistics show. This year is the first time the city has had this many slayings since 2008.
While the city of Chicago has more working police officers per capita among the five major cities, it has the second-highest homicide rate. In terms of raw numbers, the city will finish 2012 with the highest number of murders in the country, statistics show.  http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-chicago-violence-homicide-violence-december-26-december-27-20121226,0,629542.story
This is Obama's Chicago.  This is Obamaite, Rahm Emmanuel's Chicago.  This is what Obama wants America to look like.
And almost 500 murders with one of the toughest gun laws in the country, how can that be?  These people must be getting killed by knives, sling shots, beatings, baseball bats etc.
Chicago: Welcome to Obama Land.
