A 17-year-old boy and 22-year-old man were killed within hours of each other in separate West Side attacks Friday night, and a 29-year-old man was killed on the South Side, officials said.

The youngest of the three killed was with an 18-year-old friend; both were shot about 11:30 p.m. in the 400 block of North Central Avenue in the Austin neighborhood. The 18-year-old's condition has been stabilized at Mount Sinai Hospital, police said. The younger boy died at the scene.

The 22-year-old was shot three times in the head and twice in the body in the 1100 block of North Lawndale Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood about 12:10 a.m., police said. He was pronounced dead a short time later. Police and the Cook County medical examiner's office identified him as Kevin Kirkman and said he was shot at his home.

It’s freezing cold up here in the Great Lakes region.
Wait until the summertime heat kicks in.
That’s when the Amish really get cranked up.

Think how bad it would be if they didn’t have gun control.

They don’t seem to have an ammo shortage there.

Unless the legislature can come up with a gun law, on June 9th, any citizen can buy and carry a gun. Hopefully there will be a run to the state borders, where guns and ammo will be plentiful, price no object. Buy half a dozen and resell them to your friends.

And shortly thereafter, life is going to get real hard for Chicago’s street gangs, because their illegal gun source of power and control will be challenged.

Rahm Emanuel has already tried to claim credit for the plummeting crime rate that hasn’t happened yet.

These stories are thrown out there to distract from larger national distress (and possibly wring out some last drops of “white guilt”), but for me they provide me some sense of justice that the parasite class is facing some judgment in this life for their ways.

Chicago: one of the nation’s leading Democratic [sic] party’s success stories.

Reminds me of something I heard Rachel Maddow once say when she noted San Francisco being the ideal U.S. city, how it is a shining example of what happens when Democrats run things and why Conservatives can't see this.

San Francisco is gentrified. It is so expensive to live in that it prices out the Amish, Mexicans, and Third worlders. A population mostly of Whites and Asians with money mitigates a lot of damage caused by Democrat government. Seattle, Portland, Austin, and Pittsburgh are also Democrat strongholds that are fairly liveable. Cities like Oakland and Stockton are "diverse" and Democrat so they are total disaster areas.

I don't know of any where in country that is diverse and Republican to make a comparison.

Air drop in lotsa guns and ammo to these libtard bastions, and pop some popcorn—it will be wonderfully entertaining.
