Six men and a woman were wounded during separate shootings since Wednesday in Chicago.

In the latest shooting, a 25-year-old man was shot during a robbery around 2 a.m. in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Ron Gaines.

The man was in the 6000 block of South Carpenter Street when he was approached by two male offenders who announced a robbery and then fired gunshots, striking him in the leg. The offenders fled the scene with the man's jacket and cell phone.

No one is in custody as a result of the shooting.

It would be interesting to see what would happen if the cops took a week off.

I am seriously starting to the think that maybe, just maybe the Plessy vs Ferguson decision by the Supreme Court in 1896 was really not a wrong as we have been told.
With just a little tweeking, like say a complete black just-us system for black neighborhoods it could be made to work just fine.

These are blacks killing blacks, so it is not our place to speak of this. And to be honest, I don't really care, anymore than Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, or Barack Obama care (or even take notice of).

Think of it as a primitive form of self-policing population control. Every now and then, ya gotta take the Glock out and cull the herd. No big deal.

"two male offenders who announced a robbery and then fired gunshots, striking him in the leg."

Maybe if they spent a little time shooting holes in paper at the range they could do a better job on their next outing.

“The offenders fled the scene with the man’s jacket and cell phone.”

Why would a white po-leese offisir need the man’s jacket and cell phone?

"7 hurt in Chicago shootings since Christmas Eve (no protests planned)"

Since they consider the "N" word a term of endearment, must be they consider shooting each other a sign of affection.
