I know its going to surprise a lot of people (/sarc), but the article's take-away is that guns are horrible and its racist to not want gun control.

"Gun violence remains the leading cause of death for young people in Chicago," Karen Sheehan, an emergency room physician and medical director of the Injury Prevention and Research Center, said in a news release. "If we truly want to prevent firearm injuries and death, we will treat this like the public health crisis it is and invest in understanding and addressing this epidemic."

Has anyone figured out how many murders here are black on black? And how many are white on white? etc.

I believe that it’s Dan Hinkel, not Hinkle.

Never mind. They’ll be voting no matter how dead they are.

Killed by ILLEGAL GUNS, sometimes by illegal aliens. A disarmed citizenry is at the mercy of others not respective of our laws. Maybe they should demand their constitutional rights, black law abiding lives do matter, and arm themselves? Reject the Democratic elite that wants to keep law abiding blacks in our urban areas disarmed. End racism one step at a time, starting with the 2nd amendment.

Well, maybe a little statistical trickery going on here. The black population decreases (the wiser, more law-abiding blacks get out), and the homocide rate increases in this smaller population for those left (the dumber, more thuggish ones).

#AllLivesMatter

A liberal would say I’m racist for posting that, but I don’t care. The word “racis” no longer has a relevant meaning. To liberals, the only lives that matter are thugs killed by police. To me, the blacks killed by other blacks in Chicago because liberal policies left them with no respect for life are just as big a loss as those killed by police. Usually it’s thugs being killed either way, but I’d like to see conservatives teach personal responsibility even to urban youths, and give them a reason to live and to respect life.

Just shows that the federal government isn't INVESTING enough in the Black community of Chicago.

Translation, send more money.

But these black people are, for the most part, killed by other black people. So, their lives don’t matter.
