    No white people shot or killed, so this Chicago mass shooting won't get any national media attention.

    The guy you voted for told us specifically that he was going to solve the violence in Chicago.

    Any action taken on that front yet?

    Especially when capacity is an issue, why would it be controversial to try and ensure your actual constituents can attend your town hall?

    And, even more than that, why provide a forum for protestors from outside the district?

    How fast did you expect him to solve this?

    Fuck, we're sending more troops into Afghanistan because the last guy couldn't even hold on to our victories there (or in Iraq).

    It's going to take longer than 100 days just to try and secure -- or decide to circumvent -- local leaders' cooperation.

    Somebody didn't read the story or watch the video (all of 54 seconds long).

    He bolted when he got asked if he would still take donations from someone in another district. If you don't have the patience and chops to field moderately confrontational questions, maybe don't become a Congressman.

    LOL you really believe Trump is going to "solve" violence in Chicago, don't you?

    Oh, he should have stayed and answered the question, no doubt.

    There was a legitimate answer for those questions. Running makes him look stupid.

    On his own? Of course not.

    But, much of the violence is solvable.

    I'll find the article about how gang members, arrested on gun charges, get spring on bail, only to commit more crimes, with a gun, while on bail.

    The NRA thanks you for not publicizing the use of ARs or AKs in criminal activities. Please use the preferred "modern sporting rifle" when discussing them.
