At least 39 people have been shot across Chicago over the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday weekend, leaving 10 dead.
The latest killing happened at 11:36 a.m. Monday in the West Side Austin neighborhood, where a vehicle pulled up to 24-year-old Allante Elmore on a porch near his home in the 4800 block of West Hubbard, and shot him repeatedly, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiners office. He was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he died.

Chicongo sure knows how to celebrate!
Obama’s Fault!!!!
Well, he never really helped, and it is one of his “home towns”!
Yeh...I wanna visit THAT city.
The hills are alive.... with the sound of gunfire.
“... where a vehicle pulled up to 24-year-old Allante Elmore on a porch near his home in the 4800 block of West Hubbard, and shot him repeatedly.”
The vehicle shot him repeatedly? Wow. Even the cars are mean on Chicago’s mean streets.
Celebrating King’s holiday in typical Chicago fashion.
10 killed in Chicago on MLK Day. Hmmm, I wonder if this is above or below the Chicago Daily Killing Average (CDKA). Probably a bit above. But I’m just guessing.
What a town: Chicago, Chicago that toddling town ...
My town yesterday:
“The ‘hood is alive with the sound of Uzis.”
Give them a holiday so they don’t have to go to work- oops welfare office- and they shoot each other up?
Who had that bright idea?
Eight years of B.O. and this is where they are at. I wonder if the legendary civil rights icon, John Lewis had any input.
I’ve been tracking the weekend box scores and this is just about average.
Nah. There’s no money in it for him.
"We have spent 50 years enacting just about every liberal idea on the race question, including electing Americas First Black President, and yet said president just said that
After my election there was talk of a post-racial America. And such a vision, however well-intended, was never realistic.
But that means, Mr. President, that the whole liberal program on race must be considered a failure. If you cant solve the race problem with 50 years of nonstop race politics culminating in a black president, whats the point?"
I have an idea. Lets throw out the entire liberal program and try something else. For a change.
Did anyone see the photograph of the mayor hanging his head in shame?
You know...Every time they shoot somebody, our welfare expenses drop...
Hmmmmmmmmmm.....
So, a typical Chicago weekend then.
