Chicago is not a place for a family picnic even on a slow weekend for homicides.

When the h*ll is Rahm going to pass meaningful gun control laws in Chicago? I’ve had enough of this crap.

WOW!

A 33% kill ratio? They’re either using larger calibers, have had some range time, or just getting some good hits,

Usually the kill to wound ratio is ten percent or so.

I like a 0% kill ratio from thugs. Their range is the streets and it sounds like they have been getting a lot of practice to me.

“Across the city?” I doubt that. I suspect it is heavily concentrated in one limited portion of the city.

Life is so wonderful in the Marxist gun control paradise of Chicago.

That maybe true; however, an off-duty Chicago police officer that was recently assaulted outside his home stated that no place in Chicago is safe.

They should have moved to a ‘gun-free zone.’ Now it’s too late.

Or we could try moving the criminals to a gun-free zone, but I suspect that zone would not be gun-free for long.
