Trump cites Chicago gun violence in speech




Donald Trump faulted President Barack Obama for failing the nation's inner cities and cited Chicago's history of gun violence as an example of that as he accepted the Republican nomination Thursday night.
"I have a message for all of you: The crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon, and I mean very soon, come to an end. Beginning on Jan. 20 of 2017, safety will be restored," Trump told delegates.
ADVERTISING
"The most basic duty of government is to defend the lives of its own citizens. Any government that fails to do so is a government unworthy to lead," he said.
Trump, who has billed himself as a "law and order" candidate, contended homicides jumped by 17 percent in the nation's largest cities, calling it the biggest increase in 25 years.



"In the president's hometown of Chicago, more than 2,000 people have been the victims of shootings this year alone. And almost 4,000 have been killed in the Chicago area since he took office," Trump said.



"Decades of progress made in bringing down crime are now being reversed by this administration's rollback of criminal enforcement."
A Tribune review of shooting incidents in the city showed more than 2,200 people had been shot this year as of July 20. The number of deaths since Obama took office on Jan. 20, 2009, was not immediately available.
Trump was correcting an earlier misstatement. During a July 12 rally near Indianapolis, Trump gave a larger, inaccurate homicide number for Chicago during the Obama presidency.



"Look at Chicago, look at what's going on," he said. "Since President Obama became president, almost 5,000 killings in Chicago and nobody talks about it. Well, we're going to start talking about it."
Also Thursday, Trump pledged to put "the American people" first with a plan to "begin with safety at home," including "safe neighborhoods."
"This administration has failed America's inner cities," he said. "It's failed them on education. It's failed them on jobs. It's failed them on crime. It's failed them in every way and at every single level."

#TRUMP VERSUS #CLINTON READ THE FACTS OF EACH PARTY'S HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:

LIVING IN CHICAGO aka #CHIRAQ DEMOCRATS WHO HAPPENS TO BE OF COLOR LACK ANY AUTHORITY OR A BACKBONE TO SPEAK UP TO RACIAL ISSUES

1.) DEMOCRATS HAVE LOCKED ME UP 5X'S TO COVER-UP THE FACT A FORMER CHICAGO POLICE OFFICER IMPREGNATED HIS NATURAL BIOLOGICAL DAUGHTER.

2.) IF THE ABOVE IS NOT SICK ENOUGH EVERY BLACK PERSON IN AUTHORITY FROM JUDGE ALL THE WAY TO DOROTHY BROWN CLOSED THEIR EYES AND EARS BECAUSE BEING A DEMOCRAT IN CHICAGO MEANS DOING WHAT THE RACIST CORRUPT WHITE MAN TELL THEM TO DO.

3.) A BLACK DEMOCRAT IN CHICAGO WILL NOT DEFEND ANYONE OF THEIR OWN ETHNICITY THEY HAVE ASSIMILATED THEMSELVES WITH THE VERY PEOPLE WHO DON'T RESPECT THEM OR LIKE THEM.

4.) IT IS IS RARE YOU WOULD FIND A BLACK MALE DEMOCRAT WITH AUTHORITY CRITICIZING ANYTHING A WHITE MAN IS DOING IN OFFICE WRONG BUT EVERYBODY WILL CRITICIZE OR MAKE A MOCKERY OUT OF PERSONS OF COLOR WHETHER THEY ARE RIGHT OR WRONG.

5.)  THE DEMOCRATS WILL ONLY EMPLOY OR APPOINT A BLACK MAN WHO IS SPINELESS, PASSIVE WEAK AND WILL DO WHAT HE IS TOLD THIS IS THE VERY REASON WHY CHICAGO IS IN THE SHAPE THAT IT IS IN BECAUSE MANY OF THE BLACKS IN POWER ARE TODAY'S UPDATED VERSION OF "HOUSE SLAVES"

PEOPLE OF COLOR ARE BEING DESTROYED BY THE VERY SYSTEM OF DEMOCRATS WHO HAVE LYNCHED, RAPED BLACK MEN OF COLOR SENSE SLAVERY

Buck Breaking- Hidden, Untold, History https://youtu.be/Mg_13WJ4gDo via @YouTube

BLACKS IN POWER DON'T KNOW THEY ARE FREE MEN AND WOMEN ARE STILL ENGAGING IN TERRORISTS ACTS PERPETRATED BY THE VERY PARTY THAT TOOK DELIGHT IN VIOLENCE AND DEMONIC RACIAL SEXUAL ABUSE.

NO WHERE IN ANY HISTORY BOOKS IS IT RECORDED REPUBLICANS USED BLACKS TO BEAT DOWN A MAN IN HIS OWN RACE TO A POINT WHERE HE COULD'NT FIGHT AND LATER RAPE THAT MAN SO AS TO DEMONSTRATE POWER AND CONTROL OVER THAT ETHNIC GROUP WHICH IS CALLED BUCK BREAKING!

OTIS LEE LOVE. JR.

DEMOCRATS DON'T BELIEVE A MAN OF COLOR IS TO BE IN HIS CHILDREN'S LIVES THEY ARE NOT TO WORK, BUT ON WELFARE WITH A LINK CARD BEGGING WITH HANDS OUT, INCARCERATED, OR BE EDUCATED DEFINITELY NOT A POSITIVE ROLE MODEL FOR ANYONE IN THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE THE RACIST DEMOCRATS DON'T SEE HIM AS A MAN OF INTEGRITY, A MAN FREE IN THE CONTEXT OF THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.

AS LONG AS DEMOCRATS ARE IN POWER PEOPLE OF COLOR WILL ALWAYS BE DISENFRANCHISED BY THEIR POLICIES THAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF MASS INCARCERATION BY BILL CLINTON HILLARY  ALLEGEDLY HAD INCREDIBLE STOCKS IN PRIVATE PRISONS AND ALLEGEDLY MADE A LOT OF MONEY.

I HAVE BEEN FIGHTING RACIAL INJUSTICE RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN THE COURTS AND HOUSING DISCRIMINATION AND VOTED FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA TWICE AND STILL NO CHANGE------IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE HISTORY YOU WILL REPEAT FROM WHENCE YOU GOT HERE!

DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!

I WANT TO PERSONALLY THANK AL OF MY TWITTER FOLLOWERS AND SUPPORTERS FOLLOWING AND SUPPORTING MY POSTS AND TWEETS WITH LOVE. #1LOVEALL

The Long, Sad, Violent History of Democrats'
Racial Hatred for Blacks

Perry Drake
May 2003

It has always seemed unnatural and unwise to me whenever I hear someone who's been slandered by a particularly egregious lie reply that they're not going to dignify that accusation with a response.
For it has always been crystal clear to me that whenever your honor, integrity and reputation are called into question that you should be quick, thorough and – when circumstances demand – quite loud in defense of them.
Otherwise, people will assume that the accusation must carry some weight and the falsity levied against you just might end up sticking.
That's what has happened to the political party that I belong to – the Republicans. For decades the Party of Lincoln has been under almost constant assault for being "racist" and "openly hostile" to blacks.
However, nothing could be further from the truth – but you would never know it by the party's spineless, practically nonexistent defense of its record on race and civil rights.
From the days of Lincoln until the present, blacks have had no better friend, party-wise, than the Republicans. Since its inception in the mid-19th century, the GOP has built an exemplary record on civil rights, particularly if you want to use the Democrat Party as a comparison.
The party's first president, Abraham Lincoln, issued the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863, the height of the Civil War, squelching any chance that the European powers of the day would intervene in the conflict in favor of the Confederacy. With the stroke of his pen, Lincoln destroyed the last real hope the Confederacy had for a victory.
Soon after the war ended, it was a Republican-controlled Congress that rammed through the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution that, among other things, abolished slavery, guaranteed equal protection and due process and addressed blacks' right to vote.
In the late 19th century, Democrat governors and Democrat-controlled state legislatures in the South couldn't pass Jim Crow laws fast enough. Those Democrats created a nearly century-long, legal racial caste system that relegated blacks to the lowest educational, political, economic and social strata. I have family members who grew up under Jim Crow. To hear them tell it, it weren't no joke.
And let us not forget that during the same period it was Democrats throughout the United States who organized and ran America's premier terrorist organization – the Ku Klux Klan.
And speaking of the Klan, remember the great Democrat President Woodrow Wilson? After a screening of D.W. Griffith's paean to the Ku Klux Klan, "Birth of a Nation," Wilson, turned-movie critic, said of the film: "It is like writing history with lightning. And my only regret is that it is all so terribly true."
Needless to say, the NAACP had a different outlook. After its viewing, the civil rights organization was mortified to the point of launching a nationwide protest in 1915 against the film. The group was equally appalled by President Wilson's comments and it launched a public protest against him.
Before we move on, one more thing about President Wilson. He was the president who led our nation into WWI with the ringing declaration that it was to make the world "safe for democracy." In Woodrow's mind, though, "democracy" applied to everyone except those annoying little dark-skinned people in America who are always clamoring for civil rights. In 1913, Wilson introduced segregation into the federal government.
Yes, dear readers, the man who is worshipped as the utmost "progressive" (where and by who have you heard that term used lately?) of his time allowed federal officials to segregate "toilets, cafeterias and work" areas of various federal departments.
It was left to Wilson's successor, Republican Warren G. Harding to scrap the segregation policy. And Warren G. didn't stop there. In 1922, Harding delivered a bold speech in Birmingham, Ala., (A Democrat stronghold that was later known by blacks as "Bombingham") in which he called for black equality. Up to then, no U.S. president had ever spoken so forcefully about civil rights.
Harding was elected in 1920. Funny thing about the Republican Party platform that Harding ran under. It called for federal anti-lynching legislation. Guess which party didn't? If you said Democrat, go to the head of the line.
Moving on, in answer to the burgeoning civil rights movement in the '50s, it was Democrat governors and Democrat-controlled state legislatures in the South that placed the Confederate battle flag on their state capitol flags. It's an issue that continues to inflame racial passions even today.
In 1957, Orval Faubus, the governor of Arkansas, called out his state's National Guard to prevent the integration of Central High School in Little Rock. In response, President Dwight D. Eisenhower sent U.S. troops to the city to escort nine frightened black teens into the school past riotous mobs inflamed by Faubus' defiance of a federal court order. Faubus was a Democrat. Eisenhower was a Republican.
On June 11, 1963, Alabama Gov. George Wallace stood in the doorway of the University of Alabama to block its integration. Wallace was a Democrat. Now, I grant you, John F. Kennedy was the Democrat president who federalized the Alabama National Guard and ordered its units to the university to force its doors open to black students. But it's not generally known that the then-Sen. Kennedy – with an eye on the Democrat presidential nomination for 1960 – voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1957, the law that really got the ball rolling on federal civil rights legislation.
And it was Kennedy's brother, Robert, who in 1964 assisted the FBI's efforts to destroy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by approving the wiretapping of the man considered the heart and soul of the civil rights movement.
And to think at one time you could find in black homes across the nation what I used to call the Black Person's Trinity: chintzy, black-velvet portraits of JFK, RFK and Dr. King painted side by side.
As far as other important civil rights legislation, the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 would never have became law if not for Republican senators and congressmen whose overwhelming support offset extreme Democrat opposition.
Now honesty demands that I admit that I have never been in favor of affirmative action programs. As a black man I find them demeaning, and as an American, divisive. But that's an argument for another day. However, the fact remains that it was President Nixon who implemented the first affirmative action program with the Philadelphia Plan in the late 1960s. The plan required government contractors to set goals and timetables for hiring minorities. Nixon was a Republican.
Sure, some will say that it's all well and good to cite the historical record, but what about now? What have the Republicans done of late? I begin by pointing out that Democrats continue to demonstrate a curious affinity for standing in schoolhouse doors, especially when black children are involved.
But of late, Democrats are not trying to keep black children out, but in. In public opinion polls on school choice, blacks overwhelmingly favor vouchers to rescue their children from failing schools. No one knows better the damage that poor schools can do to their children's future and communities than blacks. Republicans are in favor of school choice. Democrats aren't.
Also in more contemporary times, President Bush appointed two blacks to the highest positions in government ever occupied by blacks in America. Today, national security adviser Condoleezza Rice and Secretary of State Colin Powell are very powerful, influential members of the Bush administration. Powell, in fact, is fourth in the succession line for the presidency.
Oh, by the way, do you know who is third in line? Sen. Robert Byrd of West Virginia. Old "Sheets" himself. The same Byrd of the "white niggers" comments on March 5, 2001, and who was a member of the KKK. And Sen. Byrd was not just any old member. No, sir. He was a "grand kleagle" – a recruiter!
Does anyone remember the late war with Iraq? It lasted about a minute but you may have had a chance to notice that the vice chief of operations at Central Command was a brotha – Army Brig. Gen. Vincent Brooks.
And let's not let the "fair and free" press off the hook. Back when Jim Crow and segregation were "the law of the land" in the South, the press served as cheerleaders for all those kind, compassionate Democrats as they lovingly lynched black people by the hundreds on a yearly basis.
Small wonder that the press behaved as badly as it did, though. The people who ran those papers, which proudly featured the brutalized and desecrated bodies of black lynching victims on their front pages quite frequently, were all Democrats.
Today, whenever a Republican says anything that can be twisted by Democrats and race hustlers to smack the least bit of racism, the press is quick to pounce on him like Jesse Jackson on a bag of stolen federal dollars.
The hypocrisy of the press on matters of race is appalling. Just take a walk into your average newsroom and tell me what you see? Wait, I'll save you the trip – a sea of white faces and sprinkled here and there, a black face or two. Or better still, tune in to any one of the numerous weekly Sunday news shows and what you'll find is overwhelming white.
Now here's a homework assignment – what political party do you think most of the members of the press belong to? Here's a hint – Democrat.
I need not end here. I could go on all day citing example after example on this matter (Does the name Bull Connor ring a bell, for instance? A Democrat. Hah!). But it would be heartening indeed if the next time accusations of racism are hurled against them, that Republicans would grow a spine and quickly, thoroughly and – when circumstances demand – quite loudly defend their honor, integrity and reputation.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS ROOTS IN VIOLENCE, RACISM AND BIGOTRY


History can be an annoying, pernicious thing. Especially for those who try to hide it.
When I read this morning that a high school in the South was going to drop its racist, confederate name, I immediately thought of Democrats Strom Thurmond or Robert Byrd, who were Klan members and staunch segregationists.
But no … the school is Nathan B. Forrest High School in Jacksonville, Fla. Forrest was a Confederate General and a leader of the Ku Klux Klan.
I decided to research a little bit into General Forrest and it turns out he was honored at the 1868 Democratic National Convention. In fact, the KKK was founded by Democrats to terrorize blacks and white Republicans.
The history of the Democratic Party is rooted in racism, violence, lynchings and bigotry. The National Review published an article detailing the racist history of the Democratic Party:
May 22, 1856: Two years after the Grand Old party’s birth, U.S. Senator Charles Sumner (R., Mass.) rose to decry pro-slavery Democrats. Congressman Preston Brooks (D., S.C.) responded by grabbing a stick and beating Sumner unconscious in the Senate chamber. Disabled, Sumner could not resume his duties for three years.
July 30, 1866: New Orleans’s Democratic government ordered police to raid an integrated GOP meeting, killing 40 people and injuring 150.
September 28, 1868: Democrats in Opelousas, Louisiana killed nearly 300 blacks who tried to foil an assault on a Republican newspaper editor.
October 7, 1868: Republicans criticized Democrats’ national slogan: “This is a white man’s country: Let white men rule.”
April 20, 1871: The GOP Congress adopted the Ku Klux Klan Act, banning the pro-Democrat domestic terrorist group.
October 18, 1871: GOP President Ulysses S. Grant dispatched federal troops to quell Klan violence in South Carolina.
September 14, 1874: Racist white Democrats stormed Louisiana’s statehouse to oust GOP Governor William Kellogg’s racially integrated administration; 27 are killed.
August 17, 1937: Republicans opposed Democratic President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s Supreme Court nominee, U.S. Senator Hugo Black (D., Al.), a former Klansman who defended Klansmen against race-murder charges.
February 2005: The Democrats’ Klan-coddling today is embodied by KKK alumnus Robert Byrd, West Virginia’s logorrheic U.S. senator and, having served since January 3, 1959, that body’s dean. Thirteen years earlier, Byrd wrote this to the KKK’s Imperial Wizard: “The Klan is needed today as never before and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia.” Byrd led Senate Democrats as late as December 1988. On March 4, 2001, Byrd told Fox News’s Tony Snow: “There are white niggers. I’ve seen a lot of white niggers in my time; I’m going to use that word.” National Democrats never have arranged a primary challenge against or otherwise pressed this one-time cross-burner to get lost.
Contrast the KKKozy Democrats with the GOP. When former Klansman David Duke ran for Louisiana governor in 1991 as a Republican, national GOP officials scorned him. Local Republicans endorsed incumbent Democrat Edwin Edwards, despite his ethical baggage. As one Republican-created bumper sticker pleaded: “Vote for the crook: It’s important!”
Republicans also have supported legislation favorable to blacks, often against intense Democratic headwinds:
In 1865, Congressional Republicans unanimously backed the 13th Amendment, which made slavery unconstitutional. Among Democrats, 63 percent of senators and 78 percent of House members voted: “No.”
In 1866, 94 percent of GOP senators and 96 percent of GOP House members approved the 14th Amendment, guaranteeing all Americans equal protection of the law. Every congressional Democrat voted: “No.”
February 28, 1871: The GOP Congress passed the Enforcement Act, giving black voters federal protection.
February 8, 1894: Democratic President Grover Cleveland and a Democratic Congress repealed the GOP’s Enforcement Act, denying black voters federal protection.
January 26, 1922: The U.S. House adopted Rep. Leonidas Dyer’s (R., Mo.) bill making lynching a federal crime. Filibustering Senate Democrats killed the measure.
May 17, 1954: As chief justice, former three-term governor Earl Warren (R., Calif.) led the U.S. Supreme Court’s desegregation of government schools via the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision. GOP President Dwight Eisenhower’s Justice Department argued for Topeka, Kansas’s black school children. Democrat John W. Davis, who lost a presidential bid to incumbent Republican Calvin Coolidge in 1924, defended “separate but equal” classrooms.
September 24, 1957: Eisenhower deployed the 82nd Airborne Division to desegregate Little Rock’s government schools over the strenuous resistance of Governor Orval Faubus (D., Ark.).
May 6, 1960: Eisenhower signs the GOP’s 1960 Civil Rights Act after it survived a five-day, five-hour filibuster by 18 Senate Democrats.
July 2, 1964: Democratic President Johnson signed the 1964 Civil Rights Act after former Klansman Robert Byrd’s 14-hour filibuster and the votes of 22 other Senate Democrats (including Tennessee’s Al Gore, Sr.) failed to scuttle the measure. Illinois Republican Everett Dirksen rallied 26 GOP senators and 44 Democrats to invoke cloture and allow the bill’s passage. According to John Fonte in the January 9, 2003,National Review, 82 percent of Republicans so voted, versus only 66 percent of Democrats.
True, Senator Barry Goldwater (R., Ariz.) opposed this bill the very year he became the GOP’s presidential standard-bearer. However, Goldwater supported the 1957 and 1960 Civil Rights Acts and called for integrating Arizona’s National Guard two years before Truman desegregated the military. Goldwater feared the 1964 Act would limit freedom of association in the private sector, a controversial but principled libertarian objection rooted in the First Amendment rather than racial hatred.
June 29, 1982: President Ronald Reagan signed a 25-year extension of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
The Republican party also is the home of numerous “firsts.” Among them:
Until 1935, every black federal legislator was Republican. America’s first black U.S. Representative, South Carolina’s Joseph Rainey, and our first black senator, Mississippi’s Hiram Revels, both reached Capitol Hill in 1870. On December 9, 1872, Louisiana Republican Pinckney Benton Stewart “P.B.S.” Pinchback became America’s first black governor.
August 8, 1878: GOP supply-siders may hate to admit it, but America’s first black Collector of Internal Revenue was former U.S. Rep. James Rapier (R., Ala.).
October 16, 1901: GOP President Theodore Roosevelt invited to the White House as its first black dinner guest Republican educator Booker T. Washington. The pro-Democrat Richmond Times newspaper warned that consequently, “White women may receive attentions from Negro men.” As Toni Marshall wrote in the November 9, 1995, Washington Times, when Roosevelt sought reelection in 1904, Democrats produced a button that showed their presidential nominee, Alton Parker, beside a white couple while Roosevelt posed with a white bride and black groom. The button read: “The Choice Is Yours.”
GOP presidents Gerald Ford in 1975 and Ronald Reagan in 1982 promoted Daniel James and Roscoe Robinson to become, respectively, the Air Force’s and Army’s first black four-star generals.
November 2, 1983: President Reagan established Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday as a national holiday, the first such honor for a black American.
President Reagan named Colin Powell America’s first black national-security adviser while GOP President George W. Bush appointed him our first black secretary of state.
President G.W. Bush named Condoleezza Rice America’s first black female NSC chief, then our second (consecutive) black secretary of State. Just last month, one-time Klansman Robert Byrd and other Senate Democrats stalled Rice’s confirmation for a week. Amid unanimous GOP support, 12 Democrats and Vermont Independent James Jeffords opposed Rice — the most “No” votes for a State designee since 14 senators frowned on Henry Clay in 1825.
By the way, if we’re going to strip schools of the names of racists, Strom Thurmond High School in South Carolina and Robert C byrd high school in West Virginia should be at the top of the list.
