May 26, 2013 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- At least 17 people have been shot over the Memorial Day weekend, and six of them died.

The most recent victim was a man shot on the Near North Side just before 3 a.m. Sunday. Chicago police say the 42-year-old victim was shot in the head in the 1000-block of North Branch Street.

Another man died after he was shot in the head in a possible drive-by Saturday night in the 7300-block of South Dorchester.

Among the other victims was Leetema Daniels, 17, who was shot in the head Friday night in the 400-block of North Central Avenue. Another 18-year old man was seriously wounded in the same shooting.

The body count in Chicago by 5:00 AM Tuesday will probably exceed the OK tornado toll of 24. Will Obama take a trip to the bullet-riddled streets of the hood that he “organized” to view the carnage? Of course not. He feels much better going to Red States where civilized people with common sense vote for competent Republicans.

Where are they getting the ammo?

Are all shipments going to Homeland Security and Chicago?

Detroit is kind of a special case, because it had a huge exodus of good citizens, leaving it in a position of collapse. Chicago is going to need a giant bucket of popcorn.

IIRC, Obumbo’s house was on the southwest side.
I do know that one of his best friends and neighbor was
Bill Ayers, the Pentagon bomber.
It is said that Ayers helped to finance Obama’s house.

Obama lived on the southEAST side in the hoity toity “liberal” 5th ward all near the U of I campus. The southwest side is where Midway airport is located not the Midway Campus, which is 12 miles east of the airport
Thank Me.

Of course you meant the U of Chicago campus.

One of the shootings occurred just a bit west of 52nd and Stony - less than a half-mile from Tony Rezko’s bribe-site . . . erhh, I mean BO’s Kenwood estate.

“Obama lived on the southEAST side”
______________________________________

Well, east or west is immaterial to my point of
his association with Ayers.
Even though I had an Uncle living in Western Springs, and
having landed my plane at Lakefront one time, I did not travel there frequently enough to become a frequent visitor.
I have been there maybe six times, and not at all in the last
25 years.

And the weather has been was damp and chilly so far this weekend—in the low 40s Sat night into Sunday. Tonight (Sunday) is damp and chilly as well: wait until the first really WARM weekend this summer. But Rahm says we have enough cops.......

dems will love it secretly.

law abiding people will take out the criminals.

dems then get a cleaner city with less crime, take the credit, and play the race card.

the 42-year-old victim was shot in the head

Another man died after he was shot in the head in a possible drive-by

Among the other victims was Leetema Daniels, 17, who was shot in the head Friday night Another 18-year old man was seriously wounded in the same shooting.

Finally, the animals have learned to shoot straight. Maybe there won't be too many more 2 year olds shot in their cribs on the second floor.

Your right on both. Actually there’s a slew of engineering and social study colleges there along with the University of Chicago. The serious problem areas are pockets slightly west and south of the campus area on the southeast and pockets near north and west sides.

Odd how those strict gun control laws aren’t working for Chicago - guess the solution is to do more of the same - more gun control - more stupidity...hoping for a different outcome...
