At least 10 people were killed and 42 others — including a 4-year-old boy — were wounded by gunfire in Chicago over the weekend.

More than half of the gunshot victims were wounded on the South Side, while nearly a quarter of the victims were shot on the West Side.

It was the deadliest weekend in Chicago since the last weekend in September, when 10 were killed and 58 wounded in citywide attacks.

More than usual. Maybe because of the extra hour after midnight on Sunday?

I’m sure they counted the creep that was killed in self-defense by a retired firefighter.

That’s the genius of the phrase “gun violence.”

They just can’t quite bring themselves to say who is committing the violence, can they. Hint: its NOT the Scandinavian Marching and Lutefisk Society.

Gun violence = blacks being violent

The “solution” will be disarming law abiding citizens.

I wonder how many have to die until people in Chicago realize they have some political problems and need a major change. So much violence in Obamaland.

Well first it’s not gun violence...it’s people using guns to commit violence.
But that is just another day in Chicago.

self-reflection is the hardest thing to do. They'll keep blaming imaginary boogeymen - racism, white people, police, "they system," etc...

A people get the kind of government (and society) they deserve

Congrats on reaching double digits, Obamyland.

Horrible to kill a little 4 year old.

This violence must be laid at the feet of Privileged Scrub.

“ It was the deadliest weekend in Chicago since …”
Pattern here. Every Chicago shooting news seems to have this pattern
