At least 106 people were shot in Chicago, 13 of them fatally, from midafternoon Friday through early Monday, according to city officials and Tribune data.

It is the most people shot in one weekend since at least 2012 but not the deadliest this year, after more than 20 were killed over the last weekend in May, according to data compiled by the Tribune. Twelve of those shot this past weekend were younger than 18 years old. Five of those children died.

Once again, with clarity:

Black shoots black: gun and or gang violence.

Black shoots white: no one cares.

White shoots white: domestic violence or no one cares.

White shoots black: racism!

Were it not for advances in modern emergency medicine, the death toll would have been greater.

I guess not many of the BLM crowd live in chicongo. Also, every weekend’s stats seem to indicate not ALL black lives matter. Of course, looking at the racial percentages of abortions, that also suggests that not ALL black lives matter. Am I missing something here???

One hundred six people shot down in the streets of Chicago in a single weekend.

If I recall, that is the size of an infantry company. Or near about.

Black lives only matter when it’s convenient and Dems need to raise money

If these are the weekend stats, it would be interesting to see the weekly, monthly and yearly stats.

Hey Jackass (yes, that's the name of the site) is a great source for stats on Chicago shootings and homicides. Looks like they haven't quite had enough time to update with the weekend stats.

“If I recall, that is the size of an infantry company. Or near about.”

If a Brigade Commander has those kinds of losses he’d be relieved of duty and probably be in front of a Court Martial.

It’s always sad when an innocent life is taken.

I wonder how many of those funerals Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Sleepy Joe Biden will attend.

Oh. Right. None of them.
