I agree with you Dr Dave Rio can have the games. The people seldom benefit from such events and only a few business with have something to gain along with the crooked politicans who will toss many contracts to their buddies who will contribute to their campaign war chest. People who will attend the games will those of the wealthy class who will travel mostly from locations other than the hosting city. Yes we are better off without these games.

Speaking of illegals and south of our border, did you see this? LOS ANGELES (AP) - A Southern California immigrant rights group on Friday asked Target stores and a costume company to stop selling an "illegal alien" Halloween costume it said is offensive to immigrants. Halloween Costume Sparks Controversy How could a Halloween costume of a criminal be offensive to those who have come to this country legally by following its laws? Immigrants are here legally.

This type of thing will happen here in the United States soon, I think.

Will people wake the hell up then?

Robert, Bob, and BZ.

Wouldn’t it be nice if law enforcement could turn those mamby pamby helo’s, with a big spotlight for armement, in for some Apache Gunships
with a loud speaker that could shout the message…”make my day you scumassed prick”.
I can just hear the bleeding heart asswipes from larazza.

If the assholes that *run* the American government have their way, we’ll be just like them all too soon, One World Government and all…

It seems just about everything south of the Continental US is like that.

Please allow me to give you another view, if I might:

Do you recall the opening scene in the newest Hulk movie, 2008, with Edward Norton, entitled “The Incredible Hulk”?

Do you remember seeing Dr Bruce Banner living in squalor amidst massive — and I mean MASSIVE — hills of ongoing and ongoing cardboard and metal siding shacks that were never-ending??

You thought maybe that was just a long-winded special effects shot??

Nope.

Just a PORTION of what surrounds Rio de Janeiro.

Shooting intensifies in Rio slum – and the locals love it

The world wants to go here? It sure as hell can, with my arms opened wide.

Be my damned guest.

P.S.
At least Chicago has a nice lake and some wind to blow the smell away.

Back in the mid-90’s we flew into Roosevelt Roads NAS in Puerto Rico. As we flew low over Puerto Rico, we noticed police lights on all over the island; seemed like ever cop car had its lights on but was in no hurry to go anywhere. When we got to base operations, we asked if they knew what was going on. We were told its normal for cops to do that at night so they don’t startle the drug dealers and initiate a gun battle. It seems if they provide warning to the dealers that you’re in the area, they won’t shoot at the cops.

Thank God for the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

Well sadly, it did happen here, not to that extent but…About 10 years ago, during a new years eve celebration our local street gang in the casa blanca hood shot at a PD chopper. The bullet (.223 cal) went through the under belly and into the pilots foot.

Prior to that in the mid 90′s same hood, a traffic stop turned ugly and the perp fled through the hood, the chopper was called in to help with the search, when it arrived and turned on the spotlight a flurry of gun fire directed at the chopper forced the pilot to evade and evacuate the scene…

In LA there have been numerous reports of gun fire directed at the choppers…

Perhaps those thugs in RIO are better shots than our mexicans?
