UN peacekeeping troops in Chicago might solve deadly violence in black community, official says
Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin on Thursday was traveling to New York to meet with U.N. Assistant Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Support Oscar Fernandez-Taranco of Argentina.
“I’m hoping to appeal to the U.N. to actually come to Chicago and meet with victims of violence, and maybe even possibly help out in terms of peacekeeping efforts, because I think it’s so critical for us to make sure that these neighborhoods are safe,” Boykin told the station at O’Hare International Airport.

Democrats want foreign troops to police America... How typical..
Question, when was the last time a Republican politician came to Chicago and spoke to the victims or their families of these shootings? What logical solutions have any other Republican politician given to order to help out with the problem in Chicago?
Chicago is owned by Democrats, but there is hope!
Being Chicago is a Democrat run city... Question, when was the last time a Democrat politician did anything to do anything about these shootings?
What does that got to do with Republican politicians coming to town to discuss solutions on how to solve these problems? So you're saying all Republicans are banned from coming to Chicago?
And?!....So are you saying because Republicans aren't in control, they cant come to Chicago to talk to victims or help in discussions about solving this problem? So it's basically fuck em if we aint in charge then huh?
I'll answer that as soon as you answer my question, because you cant even list the Governor of Illinois, A Republican, who actually came and spoke to the victims or spoke to the community regarding the violence going on.
Yup, that's pretty much the way it is. You no doubt have seen what happens to Conservatives who have tried to speak at liberal places, right?
I'm SAYING that the Democrats have FAILED to do anything and your attempt to make this a Republican thing falls flat. You not answering the question is proof enough of that.
What I'm saying is you all are criticizing this Democrat for being trying to find a solution to this violence, when Republicans have done nothing but bitch and moan, the only time Chicago comes up in a Republican's mind is when someone talks about gun control or when an unarmed black man is shot by police, nothing else! Point blank Chicago is not a Republican or Democrat thing, it's a American thing and if the only thing Republicans can do is bitch and moan without providing solutions regardless of if it's their problem or if they were in charge then they need to shut the fuck up about Chicago or about anyone that is trying to find a solution!
...talks about gun control or when an unarmed black man is shot by police, nothing else
has nothing to do with the leadership failure I'm talking about.
You seem to be changing gears pretty quickly here. First it's a Republican thing, now an "American" thing. Place the blame where it needs to be placed.
It is a PEOPLE PROBLEM not a gun problem. As I stated before, a gun needs a person to manipulate it in order for it to work. You aren't going to fix a damn thing going after the gun. You have to fix the people.
the chances of the UN going into Chicago are "slim has left the building" . I think there has been once or twice in the past 50 years when Chicago has led the nation in murder rate, if even that many. There are many other cities that are candidates for such intervention, were it to happen.
"Conservatives" obsess about Chicago because it is Obama's home town.
And that's the problem.......the entire seed was about bad mouthing a Democratic politician that was trying to find solutions to this problem and the only damn thing I've heard from you all is Democrat this Democrat that! Well where are Republican solutions? What have Republicans been doing or suggesting to remedy this problem?
Where did I claim it was a Republican thing?! Last time I checked Republicans reside and hold political positions in Chicago just like Democrats. No, what I said was if Republicans cant help with the solution, then shut the fuck up about Chicago or anyone else that is actually trying to make a difference. Instead of being part of the solutions, people like you prefer to be like the 2 men sitting in the balcony on the Muppets Show
And that's the problem......you and you ilk want to revel in who is to blame, pointing fingers, and lambasting people who are trying to help fix this problem, but actually have absolutely no inclination or thought on how to help, why? Because you all are not in charge so it's not your problem right?
What the fuck are you talking about?! Now who is switching gears? When did guns come into the conversation?! No one is talking about guns, this politician is not talking about going after the guns.....but thanks for showing everyone you could give less than a damn about Chicago unless it's trying to further your agenda!
Fine, I'll accept that, but since you feel like that then shut the fuck up about Chicago or about any Democrat that is trying to help the situation that is going down in Chicago, Chicago should never fly out of your lips regarding ANYTHING....because if Chicago burns to the ground like you claim you want it to, you and Republicans are just as much to blame because instead of trying to help you bitch and moan.
Liberal places? Fuck liberal places, have they even been to Chicago? Have they spoken to the victims? You don't have to make a speech to show that you are concerned!........just more excuses.
And what have Republicans done to help out? What solutions have Republicans came up with as a way to help any of those cities?
Ever think because it's Democrat problem? Look, I get it. It's easier to blame somebody else. Like in this case, blaming Republicans for not stepping in to fix a Democrat problem. Sorry, but I don't have the time or the crayons needed to explain it to you any farther.
Of course - that's the code word for repukes - Chicago!!!!!!!!!!!! In a gun control town hall type meeting with President Obama - the first person said - 'the violence in Chicago - your home town President Obama.'
the answers is to bring in guns to a gun free zone. who would a thought of that.
This can't be anything but a joke. The UN peacekeeping force can't stop anything, and probably isn't even capable of observing. Just ask General Romeo Dallaire what a great job they did in Rwanda. The Liechtenstein Navy would do a better job.
first problem... the UN can not go to Chicago without trump approval... not happening.
second problem... who is going to keep the UN safe?
our constitution allows us to shoot any foreign troops on our soil that are here without our blessing
