CFP: On March 31, a South Bend grandma brought her grandson to the hospital. The 11-month-old baby boy had been shot. His grandmother’s car had also taken fire. It was another early morning in South Bend.
Around the same time, Mayor Buttigieg, was toting up the $7 million in donations from his charm offensive as his bid for the 2020 Democrat nomination got underway. The national media never bothered reporting the shooting of an 11-month-old boy in the city he was supposed to be running, but instead confined its coverage of South Bend matters to a publicity stunt wedding officiated by Buttigieg.
Buttigieg’s South Bend actually topped Chicago’s 16.4 homicides per 100,000 people with a homicide rate of 16.79 per 100,000 people
The horrifying shooting of an 11-month-old boy on the millennial mayor’s watch was not an unusual incident. In the last few days, even as the media was gushing over Buttigieg’s presidential ambitions, two Indiana University South Bend players were injured in a shooting on Notre Dame Avenue, a blind date ended in a shooting, and yet another shooting added to the bloody toll in the real South Bend.
Those are quite a few shootings for a city of barely 100,000 people. But South Bend is a violent place.
While Chicago is notorious for its murder rate, in 2015, Buttigieg’s South Bend actually topped Chicago’s 16.4 homicides per 100,000 people with a homicide rate of 16.79 per 100,000 people. Those numbers put Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s city on the list of the top 30 murder capitals in the country for the year.
In January, three shootings in one week killed two teens and left a woman paralyzed from the waist down. In one summer week, the casualties included a 12 and a 13-year-old. Last year, a man shot 6 people when he opened fire on 50 partygoers in a house and was sentenced to 100 years in jail.
By 2017, shootings had risen 20% on Mayor Buttigieg’s watch. Rapes increased 27% and aggravated assaults rose from 183 in 2013, the year before Buttigieg took office, to a stunning 563 assaults.
It’s hard to know which are flying faster, bullets in South Bend or dollars into Buttigieg’s campaign
Some of these stories, particularly the recent shootings of two baseball players which shocked Indiana University, should have been covered by the national media, which instead chose to broadcast Buttigieg’s publicity stunt of officiating at a pregnant woman’s wedding in a hospital. Had the media stuck around, it could have reported on the trail of shooting victims making their way into the hospital. more here
To quote the London mayor..”you’ll just have to get used to it.”
…pretty tired of this gaywad. Can we talk about someone who actually is, you know, a THREAT?
…our President would wreck this guy before he even got to the debate stage, if the Democrats were so foolish…
“The Media Cheers Mayor Buttigieg While South Bend Bleeds”
Just like his rectum? 🤔
Sorry. 🙃
I’m still trying to figure out how to pronounce his name. And I’m beginning to thing he has a name that must not be spoken.
Butt-edge-edge?
He’s on the edge, alright. I am so sick of all these Democrat doofuses.
“… By 2017, shootings had risen 20% … Rapes increased 27% and aggravated assaults rose from 183 … to a stunning 563 …”
And why should any of that bother him?
Rich, white, faggots did OK, didn’t they?
It’s not like anyone *REALLY* GAF about the ghetto rats, is it? They’re just props.

Rush threw out he thought this guy was impressive and would do well in the debates against other dems and the media ate it up and ran with it crediting him. He is playing them.
I don’t believe we use non-woke terms such as “rectum” any longer, Jerry. Nor is it acceptable to use hurtful terms such as “anus”, “colon”, “poop chute”, or “chocolate starfish”.
I believe the proper term is “back hole enthusiast”.
The Democrats are now just a front for a unarmed global attack, and Americans still “believe” in them at the voting booth. Surprise, surprise voters, your being screeed with your pants on.
He has made his mark not solving the problems of South Bend ( btw: That is quite a Dickensian name for a town with a gay mayor), Now he wants to show America what he’s incapable of at the national level.

“I’m still trying to figure out how to pronounce his name. ”
…It’s pronounced “Asshole”, @Jimmy. Just like every OTHER democrat. They must be related.
…Or inbred…
It appears we have a new contestant in the “Little Chicago” sweepstakes.
Waiting for Gary’s response…
That’s Mr. Bean’s gay brother… Backdoor Bean.
Buttitchscratch I believe is the phoneticized pronunciation.
