Most restrictive gun laws in the nation, yet guns keep sneaking in, more than ever, and shooting people.?.? Perhaps we need to build a wall with moats and alligators? This will certainly keep guns from getting in and killing people!

Numbers are up from last weekend, but they still are way behind a record setting pace.

They know. They’re trying to catch up…

In the same way that the buffalos were hunted to near extinction, you got to figure that at some point the cannibals in Chicago will run out of hunting people to eat.

The Chicago cannibals will have to survive on eating their aborted fetuses. Why isn’t Biden/Obama holding press conferences about the plight of the cannibals? It’s almost as if Joe Biden WANTS the ChiCongoan’s to starve.

There’s a thread blacks have on twitter full of videos of mostly blacks shooting, fighting and beating each other up. Pulling a trigger is nothing for them..just part of daily life...same with violence. It is a big part of their culture.

When abortion just doesn’t do enough killing of blacks, give them street cred for killing their own.

I sometimes think Chicago is the containment area for gang violence in the North - like in cities where there’s areas the police know are ‘containment ‘ areas. They allow the violence because they know it’s part of their culture toward one another....and they do enjoy filming each other.

The Biden Administration considers these reports to be propaganda from climate deniers and election fraud advocates.

Think about this To regular consumers of News reports there is no need to say more than 55 and 8 on a Monday morning and a large percentage of people will know the What Where When and Why with no further information.

Pretty scary if you live in Chicago and are not a gang banger.

If you can’t abort them, and it’s too late to do so, let them eliminate themselves.

(That seems to be what democrats want)

But, eventually, enough of them (or all of them) will be killed and Chicago will become safe. ;)
