CHICAGO -- At least 51 people have been shot, 6 fatally, in attacks across the city over Thanksgiving weekend, according to Chicago police.
The weekend's latest homicide happened at 2:38 a.m. Sunday in the Homan Square neighborhood on the West Side. Two men were seated in a parked vehicle in the 3400-block of West Harrison when a silver car stopped in front of them and two males wearing hooded sweatshirts exited the car and opened fire, police said. One man, 30, suffered gunshot wounds to the head and body and was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

I guess that is proof of ‘hope & change’ for Chicago from what those statistics were during the GW Bush years.

I can see where Trump macro strategies can improve black life overall, but I just don’t see this issue getting better. I guess I’m just not that big an optimist.

Try the sunny side. Look, the chances are really good that you will take a bullet or two in Chitown.
But your survival opportunities, despite the regular holiday/weekend recreation activity are darn favorable.
So pack up and recreate in the Midwest model city soon!

It doesn’t help that the thugs like to hold their guns sideways.

Tryptophan probably kept the weekend from being even more deadly.
Sounds like a very nicely organized community.
