    Even children are being shot and killed in Chicago. What is up with that? Shootings in Chicago are much worse than you know. I found a website dedicated to Chicago's shooting. It is updated daily. Of particular interest is the "selfie" section for those who shoot themselves and then there is the shot-in-the-junk-o-meter and shot-in-the-ass-o-meter which speak for themselves. It's worth a look, at least once. https://heyjackass.com/

    This is shameful, but aparently acceptable in Chicago.

    Yep there was a 3 year old boy shot and killed on Father's Day weekend in Chicago. No media outrage or Black Lives Matter protest marches. ABC news mentioned it as an afterthought. Evidently his black life was not worth getting all worked up about. Same goes for the 8 year old girl gunned shot in Atlanta. Atlanta mayor was far more outraged about the Brooks shooting.
    The BLM "movement" is the absolute epitome of hypocrisy!

    There are people who will come to a less restrictive market to profit in a more restrictive market. It's not a gun problem, it's an Illinois problem.

    Well what can she really say?
    Who could she really blame?
    Is there an actual solution to the problem?

    It's like getting a call from a landowner saying to come straighten a tree that has grown sideways and now it hitting the house.

    There's only two professions that you can be wrong numerous times on a daily basis and still make a very good living, the first being a weather forecaster and the second being a democratic official at any level.

    I would have included a clock in the above observation, but even broken its still right two times a day.

    No matter what a handful of rouge cops do it still pails in comparison to what happens in the the inner city perpetrated by non cops. I don't recall cops going around indiscriminately killing citizens on a mass scale including scores of young children.

    Here's a hint: The cops are'nt responsible for the mass carnage going on in the black community. It's a political and moral failure that needs urgent addressing.

    Hey BLM, why don't you start with policing your own communities?

    The worst part is she’s representative of the majority of voters in that place. Her opinions and rhetoric are theirs. I don’t know what the answer is but she’s a symptom of the problem.

    Just to give you a glimpse of Chicago politics.

    Late one night while visiting in Chicago to fill my Church bus the next morning, my bus captain took me to a second story walk up. Me in a long overcoat and a fedora. All of the sudden a man runs up behind me angrily. As he reaches the top of the stairs he sees Chris and immediately calms down. He looks at me and sayd I thought you were a dick. (Dective)

    After we left, Chris explained that he was the local gang boss, but he made his kids go to Church.

    The next time I met him was late one Summer evening and he was very drunk and threatened to kill me.

    The third and final time was the weekend before the election, working harder than I was, running from building to building, apartment to apartment telling everyone to be sure to get out and vote Democrat on Tuesday.

    The leader of the local gang was the Democrat Ward Healer.
