Chicago Tribune ^ | January 18, 2014

[ConservativeStatement]

A man and two women, one of them pregnant, were shot as they sat inside a SUV that had broken down on a Dan Ryan Expressway ramp early this morning, according to Illinois State Police.

The 2008 Buick SUV broke down along a southbound exit ramp to 71st Street, state police said in a news release this morning. As its four occupants waited for help, a black Dodge Charger with orange stripes pulled up about 1:25 a.m. and at least one person inside started shooting, according to the release.

[ConservativeStatement]

Be on the lookout for black Dodge Chargers with orange stripes. Can't be too many of those in the area.

Gang Initiation?

[hal ogen]

Now that’s a toddlin’ town.

[detective]

This is Chicago with the toughest gun control laws in the country. Look how well they work.

[ConservativeStatement]

“A man and two women, one of them pregnant..” I am guessing the man wasn’t the “one” pregnant or is that view not being progressive.

[ThunderSleeps]

Obviously they need more gun control laws. Because if you’re a liberal you somehow believe that just another law or six will somehow magically stop punks like this who are already breaking multiple laws.

Isn’t that area near or IN South Chicago?

If yer a white boy, 71st is NOT the place to be at 0dark30.

or anytime (w/o something belt-fed) for that matter

IIRC, the Dan Ryan heads due south out of Chicago.

” 2008 Buick SUV “
***************************
Buick doesn’t make SUV’s ,, which makes this car a Buick Rendezvous , a giant tall FWD wagon (cousin of the Chevy Traverse) ... not a car a “brother” would be driving .. although not stated in the article I would say it’s safe to say the victims were white ... a total of 13 shots found victims so if the shooter had only one magazine his hit percentage means that he should become an instructor for the police.

[ConservativeStatement]

— not a car a “brother” would be driving .. — I seem to recall Charles Barkley saying something similar to Shaquille O’Neal (based on his Buick adv.).

[Artie]

It’s not called “The Dangerous Dan” for no reason.

[logic101.net]

But how can this be? Doesn’t Chicago have strict gun control?

[ken in texas]

Relatives that used to live in Chicago referred to it as “Nairobi Junction”... and reminded me to be very careful there when I drove in for a visit.

[Dilbert San Diego]

I have relatives there, too, and also used to live there.

I have known people who drove miles out of their way specifically to avoid driving on the Dan Ryan. It runs through the heart of the south side ghetto.

URGENT ALERT - YOUR ACTION REQUIRED

ANTIGUNNERS TO HOLD PUBLIC MEETINGS ATTACKING CONCEALED CARRY

YOU MUST ATTEND TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT

Gun-grabbing State Representative Laura Fine will be holding a so-called “Public Meeting” on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 in Glenview, Illinois. Joining Fine in organizing the meeting is the extremely anti-gun Cook County State’s Attorneys Office along with the state’s most radical gun control organization, The Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence (ICHV).

Fine claims that this meeting is for the purpose of answering questions the public might have about concealed carry. In reality, the organizers plan to use the meeting to frighten the public and spread lies about the impact of concealed carry on public safety. Fine and the other organizers plan to use this meeting as a recruiting session for ICHV and as a platform to launch efforts to REPEAL CONCEALED CARRY during the 2014 legislative session coming up this spring.

DON’T BE FOOLED - Rep. Fine, the ICHV and the Cook County State’s Attorneys Office want to strip you of your right of self defense, and then come take your guns away.

ARE YOU GOING TO STAND BY AND LET THE GUN GRABBERS TAKE WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY YOURS?

Of course not. That is why you must stand up now and defend your rights! That is why we must flood Fine’s “Public Meeting” with solid supporters of the 2nd Amendment!

3 THINGS YOU MUST DO TO HELP PROTECT THE FUTURE OF CONCEALED CARRY AND PRESERVE ALL YOUR GUN RIGHTS

1. Attend Rep. Fine’s “Public Meeting” on concealed carry. The meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, January 22, 2014, 7:00 PM, Glenview Police Station, 2500 East Lake Street, Glenview. Please plan on being there at 6:15 to make sure that you get a seat. In the past, the gun grabbers have been known to close the doors early to stifle pro-gun voices. Be sure to wear NRA or IGold hats and t-shirts to the event. If you see the media there, approach them and tell them that you are a law-abiding firearm owner and that you strongly support concealed carry and the right to keep and bear arms. The gun controllers on the panel will surely attack the Second Amendment and your right to keep and bear arms. It is very important that you vigorously defend your rights and enthusiastically support your fellow gun owners when they speak out in defense of our Constitutional rights.

2. Pass this alert on to all your friends and family members...tell them to show up at the meeting as well.

3. Post this alert to any and all Internet bulletin boards or blogs to which you subscribe.

REMEMBER:

Wednesday, January 22, 2014

7:00 PM (Please be there by 6:15)
