Chicago Has Deadliest Day In Over A Decade: 9 Killed, 12 Wounded
Chicago Has Deadliest Day In Over A Decade: 9 Killed, 12 Wounded
A teen in a park on the West Side. Two men in their 30s in Uptown on the North Side. A woman in her 20s in the South Side’s Morgan Park neighborhood.
Chicago’s most recent spasm of violence touched all corners of the city.
On Wednesday alone, eight people were shot to death in homicides. A ninth victim — an 11-year-old boy — died of an apparent accidental shooting.
That marked the most homicides in a single day in Chicago in more than a decade, according to a Tribune analysis of department data. The worst previous day occurred July 5, 2003, when Chicago saw 10 homicides, the analysis found.

And in Chicago they have tons of gun laws. I would laugh at this if it was not about lives being taken, but still it sure shows how gun laws do not stop bad guys. We must never let them take our guns.

Luckily I live nowhere near Chicago. It is sad, but my attitude is let the lowlifes practice population control. Nothing decent people can do about it.
