the Amish surely dost go hog wild on these holiday weekends
Sounds like a quiet weekend in Chicago.
I assume most of the shooters were white cops.
And the weekend is not over yet.
Everybody Polka!!
Where’s Homeland Security? Where’s the FBI? Gotta be a lotta ‘lone wolfs’ with that many shooting...
Al Sharpton is way too busy with the Ferguson hoax for this
That’s ,all?
C’mon, Chicago. You can do better!
Twenty-four to go.
JUST TWO??? These idiots are slacking off.
Why was this posted? It’s not newsworthy unless it’s into double digits?
Anyone else notice how many shooting were at parties or “block parties”.
The KKK just sits and laughs. In a period spanning several decades the KKK lynched just less than 4,000 blacks. Blacks kill more blacks than that in a single year.
That’s all you got, Chitown?
Last week it was 50 hits and 5 DRT.
C’mon! You’re slipping you lazy slackers.
msm doesn’t report it like ferguson when blacks shoot blacks.
race pimps like jesse and al don’t come when blacks shoot blacks.
this is just normal behavior. nothing to see here. only when whtiey fights back.

FBI to hit Chicago streets to combat gangs: Sneed scoop
Sneed has learned that the feds plan to dispatch 65 FBI agents to the streets in high-crime areas on the South and West Sides in an all-out battle against gang crime.
The 65 feds are part of a group of 100 Chicago agents already assigned to curb gang and violent crimes.
“This is a new tactic the FBI is using in fighting crime,” an FBI spokeswoman said, “by working in a concentrated area and a concentrated time on the street — although the FBI has been working hand in hand and day in and day out with the police department."
A top police source tells Sneed the FBI agents, who will be working in tandem with the Chicago Police Department, will be assigned to do gang suppression missions on Thursdays and Fridays for at least the next three to four weeks.
“It’s mind-boggling,” the top police source said. “It’s almost unheard of.”
“I thought the mayor and the police superintendent had said they don’t need more police on the streets,” the source added.
Sneed is told the FBI plans to develop intelligence and conduct surveillance on street-corner drug dealers, which will “lead to somebody else talking, possibly lead to an arrest and to the seizure of guns,” a second police source said. “We have to go to where the problems are and that means working the streets.”
Sneed also is told that new FBI Director James Comey and Robert Holley, the special agent in charge of the Chicago division, are eager to build relationships with local police.
This disclosure follows in the wake of an announcement that 40 Illinois State Police troopers will partner with Chicago Police officers in a fugitive apprehension task force.
“They will be going after the worst of the worst, looking for people wanted on murder warrants. The fugitives may be wanted on the South Side, but who knows where in the city they’re hiding,” the top police source said.
The state troopers will be organized into “surge teams” made up of five CPD officers and two state troopers and tasked with catching those with “known violent criminal histories who are wanted by law enforcement,” the governor’s office said last week.
In July, seven additional ATF agents were assigned to Chicago to help reduce gun violence.
When gentle, college-bound, giants kill innocents, it's a non-story. If any of them had been killed, we would have a whole new ball game.
