I’m pretty sure the bimbo will survive if she STOPS BEING “BLACK”. She’s a real dumbass.

Other than the large number, this is hardly news for Chicago.

20% kill rate?? Depends on how you look at that number.

Chi-Congo in 2022 had a murder rate of 25.8/100000 residents. Something like 700 murders in 2022.

New Orleans, a much smaller city had a murder rate in 2022 of 74.3/100000 residents. ONLY 280 people murdered.

The per capita numbers indicate which is a more dangerous (lawless) city.

While more people by number are murdered in Chi-Congo, in New Orleans your odds of being murdered are significantly higher.

If Chi-Congo had the same murder rate as New Orleans (74.3/100000), Chi-Congo murder rate would be near 6600 MURDERS per year. 700 is a drop in the bucket.

20% kill rate. That’s really pathetic.

I was going to say that they're getting better.

True, but it’s normally between 11-15% so they’re getting better..

This probably isn’t a record, is it?

Sigh.

Great question. There are lots of places where guns aren’t “violent” at all. I think it depends on the demographics. “Black guns” are more violent than all of the other color guns.

I guess I have high standards. I’d hide my head in shame if I was so incompetent. This must be coming from today’s participation trophy culture. When I was growing up people would quickly discover what they were good at and not. You wouldn’t embarrass yourself by doing things that you were incompetent.

Actually, 20% is pretty close to combat percentage of kills. In fact it may be higher, I haven’t seen that statistic for a long time.

The NAACP should issue a travel advisory for Chicago.

I’m not sure if that is a fair comparison. Combat units use tactics which involve suppression fire for instance. Chicago is a different battlefield. You walk up to someone and cap them in the head.
