CHICAGO -- At least 34 people have been shot, eight fatally, in Chicago shootings so far this Memorial Day weekend.

A man was killed and a woman was injured in a West Garfield Park shooting early Sunday, police said.

The 35-year-old man and 30-year-old woman were sitting in a parked car in the 4100-block of West Taylor Street around 2:09 a.m. when someone fired shots, Chicago police said.

The man was shot in the head and was pronounced dead at Mount Sinai Hospital. The woman was in critical condition at the same hospital with a gunshot wound to the side.

No arrests have been made and detectives are investigating.

A man has died after being shot in Woodlawn Saturday night, police said.

The man, 26, was leaving a gas station in the 500-block of East 67th Street around 10:55 p.m. when someone in a white SUV fired shots, according to Chicago police.

He was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center with multiple gunshot wounds to the back. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Isn’t anything over five people considered mass murder? I guess they have to all be shot in one place to get that title.

These will later be anonymized and cited as evidence for the need for gun control.

Is it ‘gun violence’ or thug violence?

“Gun violence”. Humans have nothing to do with it. It’s those dastardly guns, getting up and shooting people all by themselves.

Why do they always talk about gun control? What is needed is people control.

Are these shooters following the strictest gun laws in the nation, Chicago?

“someone fired shots”

I’m guessing the check for the social workers being hired didn’t clear.

Nobody gives a schiff, It is just ni$$ers killing each other, who cares?
Gun control has nothing to do with it, it is just a concept to upset white people, that stupidly obey stupid laws.

42 felonies plus gun law violations. Yet it is likely that none of the felons will be arrested, tried, convicted or sentenced. Some of the victims were probably shooters or killers in the previous weeks carnage. The only justice available to the friends and relatives of those shot or killed is violent revenge. Urban America is unlivable.
