Five people were shot as a rolling gun battle tore through the West Loop neighborhood early this evening, according to preliminary reports from the scene. The injured include a bicyclist, a ride-share passenger, and a man who may have been inside one of the gunman’s vehicles.
“Man, this scene is almost a mile, two miles long,” one evidence technician assigned to document the shooting told a dispatcher.
At least one victim was shot near the 600 block of West Kinzie, close to the Blommer Chocolate Factory, where a woman was shot last week.

I don’t think shots fired in Chicago could reach Martha’s Vineyard, but I wish they would.

Did they make it to the new first aid stations installed for that purpose?

Are all of the killed gunshot victims? If so, that’s a 22% kill ratio. Higher than I would have expected, given the stats I’ve seen lately.

96 so far in September with one night to go. The lads will have to pick up their game tonight if they want to reach the century mark.

Yet another dispute concerning the meaning of Kant’s categorical imperative, I’d wager. Naturally, violence was the only resort.

From the article:
Crime scene is “almost a mile, two miles long,” cop says... The cop knows better. All of Chicago is a crime scene.

Stop and frisk is the only way.
So prepare to hear about more shootings and deaths.

I have proposed the Police put a case of 9MM on every street corner. Also, as a nod to Old School Pimps, a box of .25 Auto.

Democrats want to turn the whole country into a democrat hellhole.
Why?
Because it’s who democrats are... violent filth... and white trash ‘elites’. Time to negotiate a division - two countries.

7. Reads like a description of Chicago’s version of the Communist Tet Offensive of 1968, only it is lasting longer and killing more civilians indiscriminately!!!

Big wheels keep on turning
Carrying bodies to the morgue
Singing songs about the Northland
Wanna die? then hop aboard
Sweet home Chicago
where the skies are always gray
Sweet home Chicago
I'm looking to get away
In Chicago we hate the mayor
She lies to us everyday
The only thing I can tell you
is stay far far away
