    Chicago Is Now Shooting Mail Carriers
    Chicago postal workers, saying it is too dangerous to deliver the mail, are threatening to stop delivering in some neighborhoods one week after a mail carrier was shot on her route.

    Postal workers and community organizers joined together for a prayer vigil Thursday near the scene of last week’s shooting.

    The 24-year-old mail carrier remains hospitalized. She was shot four times during a drive-by shooting in the Burnside neighborhood.

    A $50,000 reward is being offered to find the shooter.

    The day after this shooting, another mail carrier was struck while on route in Chicago, this time with a paintball gun.

    Mail carriers in the city of Chicago are threatening to stop delivering in some neighborhoods after a 24-year-old postal worker was shot on her route earlier this month.

    On Friday, Chicago postal workers attended a rally with community organizers to protest the violence plaguing the city. At the rally, Mack Julion, president of the Chicago chapter of the National Association of Letter Carriers, urged members to stop delivering mail if they don’t feel safe.

    “Any letter carrier who does not feel safe in any one of these communities, then they are not to deliver mail, and customers have to pick up their mail,” Julion said. “We are not going to have another situation where the letter carrier is shot down.”

    “That’s a traumatic experience, especially when you had a coworker shot the day before,” Julion said. “It’s not funny. These are federal employees … Our members are at work trying to do their job trying to support their families, trying to serve the community.”

          Chicago demoRAT leaders doing a great job.

          I'm sure once the welfare checks and food stamps can't be delivered, things will change.

            True fact:

            Recent study shows black male citizens of Chicago have a 50/50 chance of living past 65 years of age.

                      Nobody gets welfare checks in the mail anymore.
                      It's all online, direct to bank accounts.
                      What if you don't have a debit card you say?
                      The state gives you a bank issued debit card.

                      My wife's girlfriend works for the welfare department, she tells me things.

                                Chicago has more gang members than the population of Green Bay, Wisconsin.

                                      Actress Alyssa Milano called police when she believed an armed gunman was on her Bell Canyon property in California on Sunday morning.

                                            ... 'Defund the police' activist Alyssa Milano calls 911 sparking massive police presence in her quiet California neighborhood claiming an armed an gunman was on her property - but it was really a teen shooting at squirrels with an air gun..
                                            ...The 47-year-old lives in an 8,000 square foot, $2.5 million home in the upscale gated community that sits just 20 minutes north of Los Angeles...

                                            What a twat.

                                              Remember when she showed up at what was basically a Supreme Court Justice nominee congressional sexual harrassment hearing looking like this?
