How many murders in Chicago the last two days?

Posted on 01/06/2014 9:15:15 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

Perhaps this huge storm system can be thanked for stopping, temporarily, the black-on-black murder rate in Chicago.

Does anyone know how many murders have taken place the last couple days in Obama's home town?


TOPICS: Society
KEYWORDS: chicago; illinois; thugs
Just wondering.

Check with planned parenthood. I am sure they keep good records of their murders just like the Nazis did.

Didn’t stop the Hoodied Feral Youth in Indy from getting a good start on breaking last years record breaking death count.

http://www.wthr.com/story/24369047/2014/01/05/one-dead-in-west-indianapolis-shooting

Police say at least two suspects were seen running from the house where the shooting occurred after the incident. The first suspect was described as a black male, 18-20 years old, standing about 5’8” tall. He was wearing a black beanie cap, a dark hooded sweatshirt, dark pants and was armed with a gun.

The second suspect is also a black male, aged 18-20. That suspect is 6’ tall and was wearing a black skull cap, a black hooded sweatshirt and was armed with a gun.

The reality is this: When the weather gets cold, the gang-bangers in Chicago tend to hunker down inside somewhere and stay out of the cold.

So shootings and homicides slow down during the coldest parts of the winter.

So without looking at a newspaper and based on what I've seen on TV over the weekend, the number of shootings is probably "down" to somewhere between 5-10 with perhaps one or two people killed.

We won't see a SPIKE in the number of shootings until the weather warms up. Typically the first warm weekend above about 50 degrees sees a HUGE spike in the number of shootings and homicides due to the "pent up demand" by the gang bangers.

Isn't it hard to run when they're sagging their pants, or do they pull them up first?

Several websites track Chicago murder count, easily located via search engine. Per Chicago Tribune, one murder thus far in 2014, 75% reduction for the same period in 2013. Expect Chicago pols will ignore the weather and take credit for the stats.

Now go look at the temperature & weather for this past weekend back in 2013 and compare it to this weekend where it's been snowing like crazy and we have record cold.

Wanna bet the weather was much more moderate last year? (I already know it was, I live in the Chicago area.)

No worries, the murder rate will soon recover as noted in this article. The City of Chicago apologizes for the temporary inconvenience.

It may go up. The cold is locking up millions of lifelong Demonuts together, with no place to go, no escape from each others' insanity.

I don’t know. And I don’t care.
It could be zero or it could be 1000, makes no differnce to me. I couldn’t give a rat’s patoote if they kill each other. It makes absolutely no difference in my God-fearing, liberty-loving family’s life if every single one of them kills each other. If they erupt today and kill each other until nobody is left, I will sleep the same as I slept last light.
I don’t care.
