The dems will use that fact to justify taking guns from NON-VIOLENT, honest citizens while deliberately leaving them in the hands of violent criminals.
See, it’s Independence Day weekend! Blacks were oppressed during the Revolutionary War so that’s why they’re lashing out!
Apparently they can’t handle being independent
You're right: the over/under is 45 shootings, 12 fatalities by the time the weekend is over. I'm taking the over.
Thank goodness Juneteenth solved all their problems. Not.
Doesn’t matter
CHICAGO..! What a wonderful place to sell ammo.....
Alas,not even Llightweight’s special lesbian superpowers can end this senseless violence
In all honesty, this number of wounded & dead is a paltry showing for a Friday night. I’m expecting a better effort Saturday & Sunday night.
“Those are rookie numbers! The weekend is young!”
Yes but the kill ratio is up. Sadly It appears target practice is paying off.
Yes it is. It’s not over until after Monday.
I looking for triple numbers!
we still need to increase the kill ratio so we won’t have to spend so much taxpayer money tending to the wounded, many of whom will go on to commit more crimes.
Maybe tomorrow the Aliens attack.
Per heyjackass.com, July to date 57 shot, 11 killed.
Happy Independence Day!😃
Black lives matter is what blacks killing blacks call a score card.
Whitey not in the game.
The weekend is far from over.
