Picked the wrong hobby.
Well the South side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware . . .
Fake news. Everyone knows there are no guns in Chicago because it’s against the law!
This is really sad. These two ladies are out there playing at cop just to try to save their neighborhood. They shouldn’t have to do that, but in big cities run by Democrats, there sometimes isn’t any other option.
Andrea Stoudenmire, probably not related to Dallas Stoudenmire:
Frontier peace officer and Old West gunfighter. Dallas Stoudenmire served as a Confederate soldier during the Civil War. He joined the Texas Rangers in 1874 and later became the town marshal of Socorro, New Mexico. He had reportedly killed several men and his reputation caused the city council in El Paso, Texas to recruit him as their city marshal.
On April 11, 1881, he was appointed marshal of El Paso. Three days later he was involved in the famous “Four Dead in Five Seconds” gunfight. Following a dispute over a coroner’s inquest, John Hale and George Campbell shot Constable Gus Krempkau. Hearing gunfire, Stoudenmire drew his pistols as he ran to the scene. Seeing Krempkau down with Hale and Campbell standing over him with guns drawn, Stoudenmire fired. An unfortunate Mexican bystander, trying to get out of the line of fire, crossed between Stoudenmire and the other two men and fell dead from the marshal’s first shot.
Undeterred, Stoudenmire shot Hale and Campbell dead. News of the gunfight appeared in newspapers as far away as New York and San Francisco. The Manning brothers, local saloon owners and friends of Hale and Campbell, recruited Bill Johnson to kill Stoudenmire. Three days after the gunfight, Johnson tried to assasinate the marshal by firing a shotgun from ambush. His shot missed its mark and Stoudenmire shot Johnson dead.
Over the next ten months, Stoudenmire killed another six men who resisted arrest. Not surprisingly, the crime rate in El Paso dropped off rapidly. After resigning as city marshal in May 1882, Stoudenmire received a commission as a deputy U.S. marshal and served with distinction. However, his trouble with the Manning brothers - Jim, Doc, Frank and John - escalated as a result of the attempt on his life by Johnson. At one point,Stoudenmire called the Mannings out in front of their saloon. Alone, he dared them to fight. The brothers had a healthy respect for Stoudenmire’s prowess with a gun and refused to accept his challenge.
Disgusted, Stoudenmire called them cowards and stalked off. At the insistence of a group of citizens, Stoudenmire met with the Mannings on September 18, 1882 in an effort to end the feud peaceably. Doc Manning began arguing with Stoudenmire, who started to turn away to leave. Doc Manning drew his pistol and shot Stoudenmire in the left arm. A second shot knocked the marshal down. As he fell through the door into the street, Stoudenmire pulled his pistol and shot Doc Manning in the arm. As he fired, Jim Manning ran up behind him and shot Stoudenmire in the head, instantly killing him. The Mannings were tried for murder, but a jury packed with their friends acquitted them.
Stoudenmire’s exploits as a gunfighter and lawman made him legendary in his own time. However, even though he was involved in far more gunfights during his brief career than others like Wyatt Earp or Bat Masterson, his name is not as well recognized today. Eugene Cunningham devoted a chapter to Stoudenmire in “Triggernometry: A Gallery of Gunfighters,” his now classic 1934 book on Western gunmen. Stoudenmire is also the subject of a biography, “Dallas Stoudenmire: El Paso Marshal,” by Leon Metz (University of Oklahoma Press, 1993).
Both women were hit by gunfire at the corner of W. 75th Street and S. Stewart Ave. that is often occupied by members of the group Mothers Against Senseless Killings. The group hoped their constant presence at the corner would help break the cycle of violence.
Unfortunately, that was not the case Friday night. Police said they responded to a ShotSpotter call and found both women down on the sidewalk after a blue SUV drove up and opened fire around 10 p.m.

Police are still looking for the gunman. No one is in custody.

Sounds like Chantel Grant, 26, and Andrea Stoudemire, 36 underestimated their opposition.
MASK ???
Theyre in league with ANTI FA ???
When is corrupt Chicago going to do something about their crime and RAT infestation?
Sadly until you have nuclear families with mothers and fathers in the majority of homes there is sadly no chance of change
Poor ladies trying to make a better world for their children.
If you want to work as a peace keeper in Democratic party controlled Chicago you better have full body armor, a fully automatic Maxine gun, lots of bullets and a trained platoon.
Really, really sad, and I bet it won’t make the national news. Doesn’t fit the “criteria”
Some of the flippant comments here are disgusting. These two brave women put their lives on the line for their community and families and paid the ultimate price.
I remember seeing a report on them.
I figured it would end like this.
Sad. They tried to make a difference for their children.
The first rule of citizen policing is, never give criminals a clue what you’re doing.
Seriously.
New Surgeon General Warning: Walking the streets of Chicago could be hazardous to your health.
This is how the Left treats the good folks who are tired of all the crime and corruption...
