Parody As a Weapon Part CXXII
Does Aurora bore all of us, or just those afraid to listen?
In the last edition of Parody As a Weapon Part CXXI , the fitness for duty of a former Director of Central Intelligence was examined, with a failing grade musically announced. In this addition, outside the comfortable realm of song parody, there will be an examination of the Biden/Harris administration and Martha Raddatz’s reaction to transnational gang members illegally entering the country and victimizing the people of America, in particular those who rent apartments in Aurora, Colorado.
The Republican Vice-Presidential nominee J.D. Vance appeared before the partisan political hack Martha Raddatz filling in for the partisan political hack George Stephanopoulos on a recent Sunday show, and tried to fact check the Ohio Senator by challenging the notion that the members of the Venezuelan criminal organization were a threat to Americans as the mayor of Aurora, Colorado Mike Coffman pointed out that they had only taken over a few apartment complexes there. Raddatz got more than a “handful” back in response from the former Marine Vance, who wielded the words “Do You Hear Yourself” to Raddatz like a pugil stick blow to vanquish his opponent.
Apparently it is lost on Mayor Coffman (who, I am ashamed to admit, served as an enlisted soldier in the Army as well as a Marine officer) in addition to the ABC news operation that Tren de Aragua is active throughout the Western Hemisphere, and that most of its members identified as operating in the US thus far have crossed into the US illegally during the Biden administration and were paroled into the interior of the country rather than being deported.
That any of them victimize a single US citizen or legal resident is directly attributable to the policies and malfeasance of Joe Biden and his border czarina, Kamala Harris (with toady Alejandro Mayorkas as a culpable co-conspirator). When useful idiot politicians and collaborating members of the media quibble over Donald Trump’s use of terms like “invaded and conquered” or “infested”, they choose the side of the predators over the prey, and ignore the cost borne by taxpayers for the resources to deal with the problem that never should have been created in the first place.
Of course, this is not the first time in history where the impact of violent acts and organized crime is under examination in an election environment. Using the distorted lens of Martha Raddatz and the perverse thinking of Aurora’s mayor, I offer a story they might have produced nearly a century earlier during a similar event.
MAYOR CLAIMS CITY IS STILL SAFE FOR ALL ON ANY HOLIDAY
Dateline: Chicago February 15, 1929
The Mayor of Chicago told reporters today that despite the reports of rampant crime, bootlegging and murder, that his city is as safe as it has ever been.
“Some day great entertainers will sing of Chicago as a ‘toddling town’,” announced the city’s chief executive gleefully, “because on any day, it’s a great place to raise a family”.
The mayor’s remarks came on the heels of a violent gang dispute that left seven men dead in what has been termed “The Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre”, as warring mobs are said to be struggling for control of the lucrative liquor trade and other vice rackets on the North and South Side. While some claim that the mass murder was engineered by racketeer Al Capone as he attempted to eliminate competitor Bugs Moran and his loyalists, the mayor downplayed the violence and any effect it might have on how the city is perceived.
“Entrepreneurs are great risk-takers, and some times markets have to sort themselves out. The good people of Chicago and those who would like to visit have nothing to fear, as our police, who have as good a reputation now as they ever have had, have any problems under control”, the mayor went on to offer. “Heck, some folks say our police were even there before the shooting started”.
The mayor berated those who tried to blow this and similar incidents out of proportion, suggesting that an unknown and unnamed treasury agent was trying to make a career out of the perception that Chicago was a dangerous place where corrupt politicians had sold out to vicious thugs and gangsters.
“Those who spread these rumors and lies want to make Chicago untouchable, but for now and well into the next century, I challenge anyone to find a reason to suggest that Chicago could in any way be considered unsafe, or besieged by gang warfare. Chicagoans might experience a crime here or a crime there, but you don’t have to make a federal case out of it” the mayor challenged. “In fact, I dare you to try”.
The mayor also offered hope for the future.
“Chicago is the home of great institutions that will last forever, like Sears & Roebuck and Montgomery Ward. The chance for future problems of this nature is even more slim than the chances that the Chicago Mercantile and New York Stock Exchanges will someday stop only rising in value”.
