IIRC, President Trump offered to send in some help. Chicago refused.

I’m confused, why isn’t anyone calling for enhanced back ground checks to save these people?/

Interesting numbers, interesting contrast in tone, from the useful idiots in Hollywood & the agitprop media.

Weren’t there also 7 dead and 25 wounded in Odessa?

That’s odd, I haven’t heard a word about this in any national news...or from Mayor Lightfoot. How odd...

“But the msm don’t seem to feel much need to cover this.”

That is because a Diss is a 100% valid justification for shooting

“Second City Cop” set the over/under at 8 dead, 37 wounded, with the end of the tally as midnight Monday - looks like they were optimistic (and that’s not characteristic of that blog). Locals will be checking out the “Hey Jackass” site early Tuesday for the official holiday score.

Yes there are similar vctim totals. But Odessa is all over the news, while Chicago is ignored. Why is this?

...”wow” is right.... howcum no mention of these shootings from the mainstream media but they are all over the tragic shootings in the Odessa TX area like white on rice.... I am well into my 8th decade of life...something is terribly wrong with the moral fabric of this country.... Tucker Carlson said it best a few weeks back...the fabric of our society is truly unraveling..... I shudder to think of what kind of America my precious grandchildren will inherit...

No response from the media? Nothing unusual about that.

Problem is - it wasn’t done all in one place by one shooter so the MSM doesn’t care.

Maybe we should just have a congressional hearing to ban Chicago.
