A 28-year-old man died at Trinity Hospital in the Calumet Heights neighborhood on the South Side. He was dropped off at the hospital about 9:53 p.m. with a gunshot wound to the left leg.

Why do you people in Chicago keep voting for these people. This is their end-game. Lightfoot and Sanger out to destroy the POC. Destroy the babies IN the womb, Infanticide AFTER birth, starve the toddlers and then start the kids on a steady diet of porn, puberty blockers, sex changes and pedophilia through school. Teach kids to hate each other because of their skin color or race or sex (which the child has no power over). Good job dems. And then you wonder what went wrong when bad things happen?
Dems you cheapen life and teach hate and violence. What could go wrong? YOU produce and develop the school shooters and mass shooters. Do you know that the AR rifle was developed on the 1960’s? Why, all of a sudden are they becoming a problem? I think it is because of abortion and teaching everything BUT academic education. Your “social engineering” has destroyed these children.
Lightfoot’s mass shooting weekly show. Syndicated in every democrap run city.
The chances that any of the criminals responsible will be arrested, tried, convicted and imprisoned is near zero.
Gettin’ hot.
Black population of Chicago dropped about 10% from 2010 to 2020, according to census reports.
People are voting with their feet and leaving.
Decent black people don’t want to live in a cesspool of a city.
Just as we saw “white flight” decades ago out of major cities, we are seeing blacks moving away from crime ridden hell holes.
The dems are quite happy with it this way. They can blame the deaths on Whitey and get reelected, so they don’t care.
The dems have created a permanent underclass that they nourish and feed, and milk for votes. If that underclass were to transform into productive, law-abiding citizens who respect each other and themselves, the democrat party would disappear.
Today's black illegitimacy rate of nearly 75% is also entirely new. In 1940, black illegitimacy stood at 14 percent. It had risen to 25% by 1965, when Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote "The Negro Family: The Case for National Action" and was widely condemned as a racist. By 1980, the black illegitimacy rate had more than doubled, to 56%, and it has been growing since. Both during slavery and as late as 1920, a teenage girl raising a child without a man present was rare among blacks.Much of today's pathology seen among many blacks is an outgrowth of the welfare state that has made self-destructive behavior less costly for the individual. Having children without the benefit of marriage is less burdensome if the mother receives housing subsidies, welfare payments and food stamps. Plus, the social stigma associated with unwed motherhood has vanished. Female-headed households, whether black or white, are a ticket for dependency and all of its associated problems. Ignored in all discussions is the fact that the poverty rate among black married couples has been in single digits since 1994.
8 fatalities out of 25 shootings.
Running about 33%.
Low numbers. Endless shooting, robbing and assaulting can be exhausting. They’ll do better. Just need to rest up! Perhaps a “staycation” at a nearby Hampton Inn.
Its those Mississippi Bluegums acting up again. What a burden on the rest of us.
White vigilantes/s
Are they in trouble for shooting outside the weekend time frame for normal shooting? And IL gov pritzker wants the dem nod for ‘24? Knowing dumbocrats, anything could happen. Even grabem nuisance from the free state of caulifourkneeyuh could get the nod. 😵😲. Of course THEY wouldn’t see leaving commie la “fweedumb” hawiss twisting in the wind as racis’ or misogynistic.
They’re working on it...
Shootings (and killings) are moving up into the Near North side.
The Limousine Liberals will not like that.
