CHICAGO — Two people were killed and at least 16 people were injured in shootings across Chicago since 8 p.m. Tuesday evening.

In Englewood, three women were standing in the street near 75th Street and Stewart Avenue at 11:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Police say a man ran by and opened fire, then took off in a dark colored SUV.

Ten minutes later and several blocks away, three more people were shot at 80th Street and Stewart Avenue.

Police say someone in a white vehicle opened fire on the group, hitting a woman and a teenaged girl and boy.

When is the Chicago city flag going to be torn down and consigned to a museum?

Them and their insipid pale blue stars. I believe at least one of them represents the birth of Mayor Dick Daley’s mother.

Someone must be flying the Stars and Bars in the area.
That’s the root cause of gun violence.

I guess Black Lives DON’T Matter when it’s other Blacks doing the shooting. And, as we all now know, White Lives Haven’t Mattered for about 7 years.

I remember calculating the per capita difference between Nashville and Chicago murder rates a couple years ago. Nashville is much smaller than Chicago so the absolute rates are an order of magnitude apart, but even per capita it’s like factor of 4 difference.
