A 4-year-old boy was among 15 people shot and wounded Friday in Chicago.

The child was shot twice in his head and critically wounded about 9 p.m. in Woodlawn on the South Side, Chicago police said.

He was inside a home in the 6500 block of South Ellis Avenue when bullets came through the front window, police said.

About 2:55 a.m., three people were shot in the 1300 block of North Hudson Avenue in Old Town on the Near North Side, police said.

A 41-year-old man suffered wounds to the hip, lower backside and leg and was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, police said.

A 40-year-old man was shot in the leg and taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in fair condition, police said.

A third victim, whose age was not known, was grazed in the leg and refused medical attention, police said.

A few hours earlier, two people were shot while driving in Gresham on the South Side.

Next thing will be Biden pulling out of Chicago saying for the last 8 presidents we have been engaged in trying to stop the violence in Chicago and I won’t leave this for the next president to deal with. It’s time to get out now. Though I will miss the deep dish.

This sort of carnage used to be incidental in Democrat strongholds. The new strategy, however, is the destruction of American culture. It’s why they created and support BLM and Antifa. Destruction of the country is their means to the ascension of fascist domination. Now it’s deliberate, and Biden is doing it for China. There’s no other rational explanation for what’s happening.

The silent majority in this country is happy being flushed down the toilet by these scumbags in charge. They have already stolen the presidential election and we sat and watched. Its clear for all to see what they have been doing and we all see the end results coming soon. Happy?

You should send that to Bab Bee as a story idea. It really is perfect satire.

All the Rats can see is “gun violence “. They’ll never admit that it’s their culture and policies or lack of that’s the reason for this carnage.

15 on Friday? That is a rate of 60 over the four day Labor Day weekend. C’mon, Chicago, give it a real effort!

Residents of Southside Chicago should be deported en masse to Afghanistan. Then clear the entire section to the ground and invite in industry or create a savannah(no trees or rises, just tall grass) nature park.
