According to the police blogs, there were 6 murders and 33 shootings on the weekend. Saturday night alone there were 4 murders and 21 shootings. Puerto Rican Fest was going on, but luckily the rain came just as it was ending and that helped keep down the violence.

“But it’s already illegal to have a gun.....”

Yes, how can there be any gun violence in Chicago?

Oh, yes, I get it...only the evil, hoodie types have guns...it is only the law abiding citizens who are not allowed... *after all, Obama lookes after his ‘sons’...

George Zimmerman's fault!
George Bush's fault!
In this case, maybe George Washington's fault!

Liberal elites don’t care about black deaths UNLESS those deaths can be used politically against conservatives. Ask any ‘white hispanic’ as the New York Times would squeeze out of their hole...
