Breitbart ^ | 29 Oct 2018 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 10/29/2018 12:20:52 PM PDT by detective

Forty-three people were shot, including five who were shot fatally, over Halloween weekend in Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s Chicago.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that beginning with Friday, each day in the weekend became more violent. For example, “three wounded and one killed Friday night, 11 wounded and one killed on Saturday, and 25 shot — three fatally — on Sunday.”

The five individual killed were 16-year-old John Pena, 23-year-old Kenjuan D. Scott, 30-year-old Deshawn Jacobs, 20-year-old Detavious Beeks, and an unidenified 33-year-old male. All were fatally shot while standing on a sidewalk, walking, or inside a vehicle.

Democrat run hell holes with some of the strongest gun laws in the country. Riddled by gun crime. Black on black gun crime.

The media doesn’t report it because there’s nothing to gain. Not reporting it, is gaining for their agenda.

Used to enjoy weekend trips to Chicago in the mid-1980s. Drive in 4 hours in early morning. Hit up a game, do a little shopping, have a good meal, drive 4 hours home.

No desire to anymore.

Chicago police officer: Quiet around here again.
2nd officer: Yeah, you’re right. Think it’ll last?

Can you imagine the libtard outrage if we kill half that many MS-13 members in the caravan headed our way?

I used to go with my father into Chicago in the 60s to watch the Sox play at Comiskey.

Other than south State St.it was actually a wonderful city in those days.

Now they’re all toilets. Even Indianpolis which held out for a long time is getting bad.

I was a Chicago area resident in the 1960s and graduated from college and law school in that decade. I've been a TN resident for the last 31 years and would happily pay not to go back to Shitcago.

No outrage. No 24/7 coverage. Because there is no whitey to blame. As soon as they find one, they will put the blame on him.

More power to you if you live in or near Seattle. I live on the Olympic Peninsula and do my best to stay out of Seattle.
