CHICAGO -- More than 60 people were shot over the holiday weekend, 11 of them fatally.

One of the most recent shootings left two teenage girls injured, one critically.

It happened just after 11:30 p.m. Monday outside of Leland Giants Park. The 14-year-old was with a 13-year-old girl and a 2-year-old boy in a van. The 13-year-old's father had just left the van to speak with someone in a nearby house when two people came up and fired shots into the vehicle, police said.

While the 13-year-old sustained a graze wound and is in stable condition, the 14-year-old was shot in the back and is in critical condition at Comer Children's Hospital. The 2-year-old was unharmed, police said.

Before the gun-grabbers clamor for more Federal anti-gun laws to "fix" this cr@p from the Chicagango ferals, they da*n well better make sure their "fix" doesn't negatively impact the rights of this ol' peaceful, law abiding, God-fearing gun-toter in the Piney Woods of Texas --who, truly, "ain't done nuffin"!

That is the last I heard, maybe she and her “wife” changed their minds if they have any to change.

I try and tell conservatives that no one hates a Democratic voter like another Democratic voters, they need to fight more.

I have long advocated that they build a wall around Detroit and let “nature” take it’s course.

You are so right. A few years ago my dad took us on a trip to go see his old neighborhood. We all rolled up the windows...

When you see bars in the windows and guys wearing shower caps on their heads, sitting on porches with huge cans of malt liquor....It’s best to get out of there...

Happy New Year FRiend!

I agree. She wants to, but her parents love the home they raised their children in.

I will give her a call tomorrow. She is a dedicated hospice worker and made my Dad’s last days happy. Perhaps I can help.

Thanks, FRiend! Happy New Year!
