Four shootings -- two of them double homicides -- and a stabbing left 7 people dead Saturday, authorities said.

The killings brought the number of homicides in 2013 to 40.

In what appeared to be the last homicide of the day, a 32-year-old man was fatally stabbed about 11:50 p.m. in the South Shore neighborhood on the South Side, police said.

The stabbing happened during a domestic argument in the 2500 block of East 73rd Street, Chicago Police Department News Affairs Officer Ron Gaines said.

The man, identified by the Cook County medical examiner's office as Willie Wilson of the 2500 block of East 73rd Street, was found unresponsive on the scene. He was pronounced dead there at 11:55 p.m. with a stab wound to the chest.

"Do they know how long the knife blade was yet?"

Was it an assault knife blade? Was it scary? /s

Chicago is the city that spawned 0bama and is his base no matter how much he goes on BS white bread vacations in Hawaii. Obama wants distance between him and Chicago so he never comments on the black versus black murder epidemic there.

Chicago is the black capital of America where black Moooslim Calypso Louie casts a long shadow on the black Christian churches and church goers and where Obama’s pervert mentor Frank Marshall Davis was from

If we had 100% strictly enforced gun control for black people and Mexicans the murder and assault rate would be very low here and close to Scandinavian nations. This sounds racist but it is the truth. Obama and the libs want to disarm the law abiding middle class who are easy target due to registered gun sales...While the criminal class will always find guns one way or another. This Obama-lib policy is called anarcho-tyranny

Of course, I am going by the names of the two victims in one of the double homicides. This is by no means conclusive, which is why I said “suppose”. Looking at Google Maps, the victims lived in North Lawndale, adjacent to West Garfield Park where they were killed. Wikipedia lists these neighborhoods as 91.43% and 96.19% black, respectively, so I dunno. It’s a question.

I found this Chicago Police Department News Release ( pdf ) from 2007. So, black, white, green, or purple, there you go.
