Unbelievable. Looks like a gangland hit more than 'road-rage.'

It could be fully-auto. Or, it could be an AR variant with a failing disconnector in the trigger assembly. The reason I'm a little skeptical it's full auto is the shooter doesn't look like the type who's smart enough/proficient enough to have presence of mind to change the selector in the middle of a firefight in Chicago. But, I guess anything is possible.

Makes me smell a rat. Any use of full-auto weapons is extremely rare. If this wasn’t a malfunction, where did the perp get the weapon? It’s possible it was stolen from a military shipment through Chicago. But given the push for gun control and “assault weapon” bans, I wouldn’t be surprised if it were supplied to a gang-banger by the FBI/ATF/NKVD to push the Commie political agenda.

Well I thought that is good that they got his plate number and if the car is not stolen they will be able to locate him. But then again.... won’t nothing happen to him if he is caught.

They had a target. It wasn’t just shooting people at random and they are going after the target as the video ends.

87th and the Dan Ryan, an excellent neighborhood if you are a gang banger.

But they renamed Lake Shore Drive after a black man!

Why aren’t they acting civilized now?!

That sounded like two shooters firing several shots very close together. Didn’t sound like a full auto to me.

Traffic congestion is evidently so bad in Chicago a drive-by shooting has to resort to a walk-by shooting.

I'm sorry, but if I was behind a car with two jamokes who just fired automatic weapons, even simulated automatic weapons, the last thing I would do is follow them.

I think the clip was most likely staged, the sound may even have been dubbed in later. It is also possible that the weapons are stolen military weapons, or (worse but sadly possible) supplied by government agents-provocateurs.

If he doesn’t have a $200 tax stamp for that weapon, he’s in real trouble.

If gun control laws worked a full auto weapon wouldn’t.

That was a lot of shooting for no one getting hit. It doesn’t add up.

Now demodummies, that rifle could probably be described as an ‘assault rifle’.

By tomorrow:
“Based on the video our “experts” have identified the weapon as a ghost gun.”
