Stupid fuck robber stick up a student infront of the cop shop seriously

Three men abandoned their weekend robbery attempt when the Northwestern University student they had confronted pointed out that they were standing in front of the university police station.

The incident began about 10:40 p.m. Sunday as the student walked east in the 500 block of Clark Street, according to a university alert. The student passed a large group of men walking toward him on the south side of the street, and as he passed, one person in the group yelled "yo" at him, the alert states.

The student did not respond and kept walking, turning north on the east side of Hinman Avenue. Three men approached him and demanded his money.

"Empty your pockets or we'll shoot you," the alert quotes one of the would-be robbers. The men did not display a weapon, the alert notes.

The student told the three men that he didn't think it was a good idea to rob him while they were standing in front of the university police station, according to the alert.

The three men fled south on Hinman and west on Clark. The student was unable to provide police with a detailed description of the men, and neither Evanston police officers nor university police were able to locate them.

Anyone with information about the incident should contact Evanston police at 847-866-5000.

Illinois lawmakers approve $1-a-pack cigarette tax increase



I Patrick Quinn do solemly swear that I will wipe my ass with the Constitution and rob people of their money so help me God

SPRINGFIELD --- Illinois lawmakers today approved a $1-a-pack cigarette tax hike to generate more money for health care for low-income people.

The Senate voted 31-27 in favor, sending the measure to Gov. Pat Quinn, who has said he supports it.

The state cigarette tax would rise from 98 cents a pack to $1.98 a pack.

If it passes, the state would generate $350 million and use it to leverage another $350 million from the federal government.

Another provision would put in place a new tax on the state's hospitals with the hopes of generating $50 million that could leverage another $50 million from Washington.

The House approved the cigarette-tax increase Friday.

Sarge's History lesson

Memorial Day is a federal holiday observed annually in the United States on the last Monday of May.^[1] Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.^[2] Formerly known as Decoration Day, it originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died in all wars. It typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, while Labor Day marks its end.
Many people visit cemeteries and memorials, particularly to honor those who have died in military service. Many volunteers place an American flag on each grave in national cemeteries.^[3]
By the early 20th century, Memorial Day was an occasion for more general expressions of memory, as people visited the graves of their deceased relatives in church cemeteries, whether they had served in the military or not. It also became a long weekend increasingly devoted to shopping, family gatherings, fireworks, trips to the beach, and national media events such as the Indianapolis 500 auto race, held since 1911 on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend.^[4]
Annual Decoration Days for particular cemeteries are held on a Sunday in late spring or early summer in some rural areas of the American South, notably in the mountains. In cases involving a family graveyard where remote ancestors as well as those who were deceased more recently are buried, this may take on the character of an extended family reunion to which some people travel hundreds of miles. People gather on the designated day and put flowers on graves and renew contacts with kinfolk and others. There often is a religious service and a "dinner on the ground," the traditional term for a potluck meal in which people used to spread the dishes out on sheets or tablecloths on the grass. It is believed that this practice began before the American Civil War and thus may reflect the real origin of the "memorial day" idea. ^[5]

fact about constitution

The Philadelphia Convention adopted the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787 [01]. Anyone born after that date must be a natural born citizen in order to be eligible to serve as President of the United States [02].
President Obama's father, Barack Obama Senior (1936-1982), was a British East African (Kenyan) native who never became a U.S. citizen. President Obama -- regardless of where he was born -- acquired British nationality, at birth, by descent from his father. The President publicly admits that his citizenship status, at birth, was "governed" by the British Nationality Act of 1948 (see Barack Obama's "fight the smears" website).
FactCheck.org has confirmed President Obama's foreign citizenship at birth:

...at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S. citizen (by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who was a citizen of the UKC. (FactCheck.org: Obama's Kenyan Citizenship)

An increasing number of Americans are concerned that, since President Obama was born with foreign nationality (in addition to U.S. citizenship), he might not be a "natural born citizen" and therefore might not be eligible, under the Constitution, to serve as president [04].
