CHICAGO — A North Side community group is calling for people to refrain from shooting guns in Chicago between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. to reduce the risk to people “not involved in high risk activities.”
The proposal from Rogers Park-based Native Sons, known as “The People’s Ordinance,” was recently promoted in an email newsletter by Ald. Maria Hadden (49th).
Shootings are up significantly this year in Rogers Park. Chicago police believe a reignited gang war between local Gangster Disciples and Black P Stones in Uptown is to blame.

And then from 9:00 pm to 9:00 am, fire away, boys.
How does the Babylon Bee remain in existence given the actual headlines printed today?
Are there any serious people left in America? We know who is responsible for shootings, but they do nothing to go after them. More laws and ordinances are not needed. We could go back the the laws on the books from 200 years, enforce them today and America would be a much better place.
Well, if you ask them nicely enough…
Reminds me of one of those “alien arrival” movies where the mayor of LA asked the gangbangers not to shoot at the city-sized flying saucer overhead lest they start an intergalactic war.
Are the gangbangers going to charge peak rates for 9 AM to 9 PM?
I loved Chicago for years. Best bars and restaurants around. Today you couldn’t pay me to go there (and I still want to try Pequod’s, among other places.) What a Cryan’ Shame!
And they keep voting in the same monsters who allow this sh*t to continue. They’re on their way to becoming San Francisco East.
What ever happened to midnight basketball? Yeah that’s the ticket !!!
Well, that should work swell...Just be good little boys and girls until later at night...Why didn’t they do this before????
I don’t know why they just don’t go back to settling their differences with break dancing competitions.
Ha! GREAT question!
And people wonder why the Chinese, and most of the rest of the world, are laughing at us.
What a laugh! Not funny!
“I don’t know why they just don’t go back to settling their differences with break dancing competitions.”
And whatever happened to mid-night basketball? I thought THAT was going to solve all the crime problems.
Of course no thought of capturing the armed apes and putting them away for a long time.
We could return to the fights in coliseums in order to settle arguments and gang wars. People could take bets on the outcome and the fights could be live-streamed. Hey! Wasn’t there a movie with such a plot line?
