Four shootings -- two of them double homicides -- and a stabbing left 7 people dead Saturday, authorities said.

The killings brought the number of homicides in 2013 to 40.

In what appeared to be the last homicide of the day, a 32-year-old man was fatally stabbed about 11:50 p.m. in the South Shore neighborhood on the South Side, police said.

The stabbing happened during a domestic argument in the 2500 block of East 73rd Street, Chicago Police Department News Affairs Officer Ron Gaines said.

The man, identified by the Cook County medical examiner's office as Willie Wilson of the 2500 block of East 73rd Street, was found unresponsive on the scene. He was pronounced dead there at 11:55 p.m. with a stab wound to the chest.

“In what APPEARED to be the last homicide of the day...”

Yep, “Chicago values” ... Rahmbo was right ... Chik-fil-A definitely not representative.

Do they know how long the knife blade was yet? Where it was bought?

Perhaps they should pass a law banning Chicago?

40 dead in 26 days = 560 dead/year

Way to go, Chicago - you’re on track to beat even last year’s record total.

Way to go, liberalism.

BTW, why isn’t this a daily story by all the black columnists in Chicago? Because all the shooters & victims are black? If there’s ever a white guy involved, it’s a national story with Al, Je$$e, and the rest of the race mobs, but if it’s only Obmaa’s peeps involved, all we hear is crickets .... way to go, Chicago .....

Rahm needs to tell the banks to quit doing business with criminals and gang bangers. That should solve the problem. Oh, and outlaw gun ownership and confiscate all of the criminals’ guns if the banks refuse to cooperate.

From the article - I hate to criticize the guy at a time like this, but his comment strikes me as odd. I guess it's considered unusual for a boy of 16 to be going to school.

A man who only identified himself as the teen victim's uncle said the boy, whose family lived nearby, had simply gone to run an errand. "He was just going to the store," the man said. "They just killed him just like that." .... "He goes to school and everything," he said to a police officer.

Clearly the only answer is to build a wall around the city to prevent us bitter clingers from importing violence to the peaceful streets of Utopia.

As I understand it, the greater majority of the killings in Rahmistan on the Lake (Chicago) come from four Chicago PD districts on the Southside. Obviously, this is where the crime is, but Da Mare’s strongest statement is for the gangbanger’s to stop shooting kids and take their turf wars to the side streets and alleys where they belong to avoid collateral damage. That’s the ticket to sold crime fighting in Chicago, Rahm!

Ever notice the politicians never try to get guns away from the violent criminals? They only try to take them away from honest, non-violent, law-abiding individuals?
Maybe it’s because the bad guys vote democrat, and the normal people vote Republican.

That's a new one for me, you see a body and you look at your watch and ponder to yourself. Of course that's Chicago so..........
