The number of people shot in Chicago is running 50 percent above this time last year as the city braces for the summer, traditionally its most violent period.

So far this year, at least 1,382 people have been shot in Chicago and at least 244 of them have died of their wounds. Last year at this time, 904 people had been shot, 157 of them fatally.

May already has seen summerlike gun violence. More people have been killed so far this month than in all of May 2015.

Stop shooting people. People want to go for a walk to get ice cream and stuff and end up getting shot. It's not right and I won't stand for it.

Seriously though, what the gently caress is wrong with Chicago?

People have their own agency. If they want to live in violence, than that's how they'll live. Who should solve Chicago's problems, the rest of America ? It's on the city and it's citizens, who apparently are ok with this.

Plus most of the victims are gang-members who aren't really human but human-trash, so nothing of value is taken from society by their

passing. Actually it's a good thing since it's frees up valuable resources for the people who want to live in a civilized society.

Do it ironically posted:

it's because the black media shills only concern troll when a white cop shoots black person (sometimes legitimate sometimes not), and they ignore all of the black on black violence which accounts for the large majority of violence to black people

That is their culture and it's not our place to say if it's right or wrong.

someone answer this

like imagine if all drugs were federally legalized and homegrown and cheap as gently caress along with the massive fund boosts in treatment centers

will they become shoe polishers? bootleg dvd salesmen? would prostitution skyrocket? experimental drugs might become more common. this makes for good thought experiment

The United States Military has a place for young men with weapons training and no fear of death !

Have 'em kill America's enemies instead of out compatriot brothers. Nothing wrong with killing if it's pointed in the right direction

City records 300th homicide with 13 over Father's Day weekend

The city recorded its 300th homicide this weekend and went on to record six others over a 60-hour period that saw 59 people shot, 13 fatally, from Friday afternoon through early Monday morning.

So far this year, about 1,800 people have been shot across the city and more than 200 of those wounded have died of their wounds, according to records kept by the Chicago Tribune. A total of 306 people have been killed this year by shooting, stabbing or other means, Tribune records show.

July 4th is shaping up to be the worst in a long time.

Nativity rates surely can't compete with that, right ? Seems like the problem will solve itself.

the cartel slaughter the gently caress out of each other/innocents/cops. just as much as these dumb kids. just on a grander/brutal scale.

They just look more professional doing it though, idk. You never hear anything about the Russian mob and I bet they move a lot of product too.
