Michael Lucas, 61, was sitting on his front stoop in Chicago’s Burnside neighborhood, watching his 3-year-old grandnephew play in the afternoon sun, when without warning two men ran toward the house and opened fire on him.

Obama really did a great job organizing his community before moving on to do the same for the US.

So the rest of us are supposed to give up our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms because Chicago’s ghetto gangs are out of control? No.

Warnings are a legal requirement before the Sons Of Brack open fire with their illegal guns on other peeps in their ‘hood?

But they weren’t shot by cops.

So it gets buried on page C-16.

‘Rat gunz are for shooting others. Conservative gunz are for protection from the former.

Keep up the good work, Chicago killers. The more you kill the more room you’ll clear up for the Obama Muslim infusion.

As far as needless killings go, you ain’t seen nothing yet. It will be on a much grander scale.

The only way the City Fathers and City Muthas of Chicago will get serious about the murder rate is if the BLM crowd goes downtown and shoots up City Hall during a City Council meeting.

As long as the people being murdered are largely in the slums, the Dead Fish Emanuel and Company Semi-Organized Crime Syndicate will continue to ignore the problem.

Ho hum. Just another day in the ‘hood where black lives don’t matter unless they can be used to stir up racial hatred.

If only Obama would resettle thousands of Syrians in Chicago, life in Chiraq would be so much better. Oh wait....

Things will quiet down once the moslems take over. Blades are quieter than gunz.

The Washington Post article writer, Derek Hawkins, wrote 1068 words and never used the word “black” or “African-American,” thereby missing the actual, ongoing, national news story.

You have to be deliberately dishonest — if you otherwise have a rational, educated mind — to do this.

“You have to be deliberately dishonest”

Well, you just defined the American press in one short phrase.

If you live in Chicago and are a decent person, you have two choices: move somewhere else or carry all the time and hope for the best.

I’d move. If I had kids, I’d leave today.

IMO, living in America is going become more and more dangerous. Until the number of good guys carrying weapons far out numbers the number of bad guys carrying, it will get worse.
