Why would anyone stay there? At the current pace, they will easily exceed 600 for the year.
Does Rahm get a trophy or something for his participation in the “political hack pretending to be a mayor” game?
And only 10 of those were killed by police. Rahm, you’re doing a wonderful job in your great city...
I have 611 in the pool!
Black gang youth killing black youth gang members.
No one cares.
Obviously, black lives do NOT matter to blacks.
Just think how high their kill rate could go if the clowns knew how to shoot
I heard a DC cop call the ghetto “a self cleaning oven”.
I see this as good news. Just imagine those 500 still alive in the street
Okay here is the truth of the matter and don’t try to deny it; reporting 500 murders in Chicago is plain, simple and most obvious... RACISM!
I didn’t know Chicago had such a problem with bump stocks.
Well, obviously, Chicago needs more gun control laws.
If we had an honest media, they would end each nightly news with a list of the murders for the week/month/year to focus attention on it. But NOOOOO....
Only Universal Background Checks can stop this!
That high murder rate just begs for gun control. They need tough gun laws. Like Gibbs on NCIS once said: “Guns belong in the hands of police and military”. With tighter gun control that 500 murder rate could maybe reduced down to 800 at the same time next year.
A little Friday AM sarcasm.
Who cares the CUBS are in the NLCS. (sarc)
Statistically the chances of being murdered in Chicago is less than in New Orleans.
Everyone keeps lifting up Chicago for the murder rate there, but with 2.7 million people it’s murder rate per capita is almost twice as high as it is in New Orleans. Yes, New Orleans has had “only” 117 murders this year so far, but it also has only 391,000 people. It’s murder rate as a % of the population is 0.0299%, while Chicago’s is “just” 0.01852%.
Is it just that Obama came from Chicago that has put its murder rate at the “top of the page”, when statistically its quite a bit safer than New Orleans?
