Samuel Walker Sr. had been preparing for the funeral of his teenage son, Samuel Walker Jr., who was gunned down last Friday in East Garfield Park.
Now his family must decide whether to hold a joint memorial instead.
On Thursday, the elder Walker was shot to death in a Humboldt Park gangway — just two days before his 13-year-old son was to be laid to rest.
Walker just had his hair cut, and was on his way to get a cigarette, when he came across his killer near Division and Keeler about 9 a.m., those close to him said.
Authorities said Walker, a member of the Vice Lords street gang, bolted north up Keeler and into a gangway, attempting to flee the gunman, who chased him on foot.
Neighborhood resident Gail Reynolds, 54, said she was sitting on a bench beneath a tree when she saw a man run past on the other side of the street, followed by the crackle of gunfire. Walker was shot in the head and torso. He died at the scene, authorities said.
“That’s a cold motherf - - - - - who wants to shoot a motherf- - - - - in the morning,” Reynolds said. “I’m glad he didn’t shoot me.”

Sounds like Terminator. If my name was Samuel Walker, I’d go into hiding...

I think we should put up tents in all the parks for all the new illegals Obama is bringing in.
To a Chicago gangsta, getting shot is death by natural causes.
They’re fighting for turf in the financial district now.
Cut down in the prime of his life. SOB !

What is the proper time for a MF'er to shoot a MF'er then ?

In the ghetto, in the ghetto !
Apparently, it’s okay to shoot someone at night in Rahm’s gun-control paradise.
Man, that just ain't right. Couldn't the shooter have waited until the afternoon?
Note: Going to get a cigarette.
They sell them individually in the hood now. It’s big business.
Both of them look like fellows who likely expected they would end that way.

There are so many thugs there now, they’re probably working in shifts. This one might have had the graveyard shift, but was working some mandatory OT.
1st Shift Gangbanger might not be a bad gig. Most of your competition is sleeping until 2 or 3 in the afternoon.
Probably the only way these poor things will ever see a punchclock...lol
Irony, can be really ironic.
No sense buying a whole pack. You might not live long enough to smoke them all.
Symbolic of my white privilege, I buy cigarettes by the carton.
Humboldt Park used to be a nice area, full of eastern Europeans. We used to go there to visit my grandmother.
A Lord of Vice is now on ice.
It’s 12:00 somewhere.
Anywhere urban, semi-urban or near-urban is going to become an “illegal new-citizen government ghetto. Might as well get used to that.
As long as you continue to ingrain into your children a culture that values violence, dysfunction and ignorance, then the answer is "yes".
Ha! Good one.
