Chicongo’s body count for the weekend is looking good. It’s a good thing Chicago guns shoot people and not each other.
If only they had strict gun laws.
The Democrat Party is truly the Party of Hate and Evil. Anyone who supports it is not only confused morally and intellectually but cannot tell the difference between right and wrong.
must be all that white supremacy $hitcongo is known for.
Light count. Midnight b-ball finally kicking in? 🤔
Cooler weather.
How’s that new mayor working out for you Chicago??????
Chicago still has a police department??
Huh? That didn’t stop the attack on juicy smallette. 😂😂😂👍
And of course these numbers will be rolled up into other “mass shootings” to create a fraudulent number for the gun grabbers…
I read “21 shot” and thought “oh no, another mass shooting”, thinking that some maggot went berserk and shot up a no gun zone somewhere
then I saw that it happened in Chicago and thought “typical mass shooting where a bunch of maggots went berzerk and shot up no gun zones likely”
“..Light count. ..”
i was going to comment on that as well. 20’s...meh.
Cooler weather.
“..Chicago still has a police department??..”
huh, no evidently....
Exactly. What Chicago needs is a Rudy guilliani who says to the populace “are you all sick,and tired of,the lawlessness infesting your town? Well, I’m here to tell you it ends now!” And clean the place out despite all the screaming, hissing and gnashing of teeth that will happen!

Should put an Argus drone in orbit over Chicago to catch these criminals.
LOL, ya GOT ME there!
4 out of 21 is not very good shooting. Some good gun training would help. How else can you respond to disrespect or another gang banger moving into your illustrious neighborhood
