USA -(Ammoland.com)- Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin may have hit on an idea that will bring 99 percent of the people of Illinois together.
Last week, Boykin flew to New York and asked United Nations Assistant Secretary-General Fernandez-Taranto to send UN troops to Chicago to help quell the violence. Boykin points out that the UN sent troops into the conflict between the Tutsis and the Hutus in Rwanda.
If I recall correctly, the UN troops mostly watched while somewhere between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people were murdered in a 100-day period. No one actually knows how many were killed under the watchful eye of the UN. The murders go on to this day.
Every morning, trucks go out and pick up the bodies for disposal. The reason such an action would bring everyone together is that we will all be shooting at the despised UN troops. In fact, I think we should prepare.
The first step is to print targets with UN helmets in the 10 ring. It could be a fundraiser for us. In the meantime, Commissioner Boykin might stop by the Chicago Public Library and do a little research.
When we were in grade school, most of us learned that the District of Columbia was a 10 mile-by-10 mile swampy area donated by the states of Maryland and Virginia for the establishment of the Nation’s Capital.
What no one ever thought about was how deep the swamp was or was going to get. Right now it looks like a team of geologists are going to have to drill really deep to find the bottom, if there is one.
It is beginning to look like the bottom of the swamp, maybe on the other side of infinity. The smell is just as bad as the depth suggests. Phew!
The Founding Fathers were afraid of such a problem and warned against what we are seeing right now. It is not popular to speak of or think highly of the Founders of our great country right now but, I do and, I revere them more every day. They could see the future. Most of the politicians and bureaucrats in Washington can’t see their own shoes.
I want to thank all those who expressed concern over Donner and Blitzen’s injuries.
Santa’s press office has updated me on the situation. I have been assured that even if Donner and Blitzen are not ready to go, Santa has gotten 10 good relievers for this year’s Rookie Reindeer tryouts.
Two of those rookies are Meteor, Comets younger brother, and Rose, Cupid’s sister; they are warmed up and waiting in the reindeer pen, ready to go. In the tryouts, Meteor set a new rookie record in the 3000-mile dash, and Rose came in first in the chimney obstacle course. I don’t want anyone to worry; Santa is on his way.
Merry Christmas!
