Islam Could Save Chicago?
I think we are all aware that there have been a few thousand murders in Chicago this year. Funny thing is,that they have some of the toughest gun laws in Illinois....but that hasn't stopped a the gun murders. Here's another newsflash for my liberal readers....CRIMINALS DON'T OBEY LAWS!! THAT'S WHY THE ARE CRIMINALS!
But I digress.
Check out this article from a respected site that claims The Nation of Islam could actually end up being Chicago's savior.
What????
The Nation of Islam could be Chicago’s savior
On the evening of Sept. 28, a family of six was gunned down as they returned to their home, killing a grandmother and a pregnant mother and wounding three others, including an 11-month-old baby. The weekend marks the second in a row when more than 50 people have been shot on the streets of Chicago.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the Democratic leadership in Chicago continue to run around in a daze, denying the obvious and blaming the problem on gun laws to deflect from the real issues. The crux of the issue is that in Chicago, entire communities have completely disintegrated from within. Effective leadership at the local community level is sorely lacking, as are present fathers and strong family structures. The vicious cycle shows no sign of abating, as gangs of fatherless children and young adults raised by the prison system are left to fend for themselves and form their own fractured and violent facsimile of a social structure.
The situation in Chicago is so desperately broken that alternative solutions bear considering. One of the few sources of strong leadership in many of these communities is the Nation of Islam.
The religious organization has long endured controversy over allegations that it is a virulently anti-Semitic and extremist black-nationalist group. The inflammatory rhetoric of some of its leaders — including its current leader, Louis Farrakhan — lend credence to such claims. These extremist elements should be sternly and unequivocally condemned. On the other hand, more moderate Muslims have made it a point of standing up for their communities.
David Muhammad, a retired mechanic who lives on the West Side of Chicago, was featured in the CBS News “48 Hours” documentary “The War In Chicago” for his work in documenting drug dealing in his neighborhood. For more than a year, he recorded live video of an open-air drug market that had set up shop in front of a Baptist church, and posted the videos to YouTube. The radical strategy garnered Muhammad scores of death threats from local drug dealers, but the spotlight ultimately proved more than they could endure and they eventually moved on.
Some might be perplexed as to why a Muslim would risk his life protecting Christian worshippers, but for Muhammad, the answer was simple. “In Islam, we’re taught to protect all institutions of God. So it was like a slap in my face for them to deal drugs right out of the door of the church.”
The fact is, the Nation of Islam brings to the table things that other private security firms and the police don’t: Credibility within the community. It is one of the few community-based organizations that actually recruit in the prisons and also offer transitional services to ex-offenders. One of the problems cited by HUD with regard to the group’s Baltimore contracts was that it had hired ex-offenders as guards. But this was actually a strength. The Nation of Islam had in fact cleaned up ex-offenders, taking them off the streets, getting them off drugs and instilling them with discipline before redeploying them in neighborhoods where they were known and now respected.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men have given it their best, and yet violence in Chicago remains an ongoing tragedy that has shown no signs of abatement. It is time Chicago takes the next practical step in partnering with moderate members of community-based organizations with proven track records of curbing violence and crime. While we should condemn bigotry and extremism in all forms, this should not deter us from engaging with more moderate members of the Muslim community to develop constructive, community-based solutions to address the acute problems Chicago is facing. Certainly there is some middle ground to be found in a city that is being torn to shreds in the absence of sane leadership and mutual cooperation.

Please take note that the NATION OF ISLAM has little or nothing to do with the Islam of the Sunni and Shia being practiced in the Middle East. Nope. The Nation of Islam is a strange religion that Louis Farakahn preaches. It's all tied up with BLACK POWER and also has a very strange element consisting of UFOlogy. Yep....space men coming in a ship!
You simply can't make this stuff up.
Satan always sets his traps to actually feel good and rewarding when they snap. No pain, but instead pleasure and success. It's only after that he has you bound and wrapped that he starts to whisper his plans for you to carry out. In the same way, Nation of Islam MIGHT ACTUALLY HELP the black folks of Chicago to quit shooting each other...but make no mistake about it, if Nation of Islam takes over hundreds of thousands of black people...there will be hell to pay for it.
Jesus warned that in the last days we could expect race to rise against race...and as we watch the black people rioting and looting in Ferguson, MO earlier this year...it doesn't take too much of an imagination to one day see angry black people seriously disrupting this nation.
Does that make me a racist? Absolutely not!! I just sent Ben Carson some money and I hope and pray that if it's the Lord's will he becomes our next president!!
Matthew 24:7
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
