What's the over/under for the year's final total? My guess is about 800, although we can always hope for more with an exciting 9th inning.

Over 7 times more people have been murdered in Chicago this year than the Las Vegas and Sutherland Springs murders combined. Almost 3,200 people shot.

All I need to know is if a White Atheist was involved in any of those Murders.

How about a old White guy with a Gambling problem?

Does Chicago have stronger Gun Control Laws than Nevada and Texas?

Have Will Wheaton or Lieawatha Warren commented on this?

Sheriff David Clarke: NFL Players Should Tell Chicago ‘Gangbangers’ to ‘Put the Guns Down’
The Politistick ^ | OCTOBER 17, 2017 | MATTHEW K. BURKE

Responding to progressive propagandist Trevor Noah, host of “The Daily Show,” who has been hosting his show from Chicago, where he has been bashing conservatives for highlighting the longtime Democrat-controlled city’s astronomical murder rate, despite having some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clark appeared on FOX Business to discuss not only Chicago but also the anti-American NFL protests against the American flag and the National Anthem.

Sheriff Clarke accused Trevor Noah of trying to downplay Chicago’s murder rate because it sheds a negative light on the Democrat Party and that it’s Obama’s adopted hometown.

“They are trying to find a statistic that takes the ugliness off of this,” Clarke said. “There’s a lot of people here whose hands have been in this including Barack Obama, including [Democrat Chicago Mayor] Rahm Emanuel who’s has thrown the Chicago police department under the bus. There’s the academia with their inane social engineering, soft on crime policies.

You have a lenient court system. But here’s the one common threat that really bothers me that weaves through all of this including the other cities that he [Trevor Noah] tried to hide behind — St. Louis, Chicago or Detroit and Cleveland — black victims, overwhelmingly, black people are slaughtered in the streets in these American cities and the perpetrators are black as well.”

“It is funny to me, and I don’t mean that rhetorically, that when one police officer — and what is it anomaly in the United States — kills a black man –whether armed or not — all of a sudden the town is burned down but these people in these great cities, good people, many of these children, a nine-year-old in the city of Chicago can get gunned down,” Sheriff Clarke said. “And what do we get out of people like Noah and others? Yawns. Black lives matter? Where are they?” he asked.

David Clarke then tied the issue into the NFL protests, stating that if the NFL players truly wanted to make a meaningful difference in the lives of Black Americans, they would go into Chicago in the high crime areas and insist that the “gangbangers” put down their guns and stop shooting people.

“Where is the NFL Players Association? Why aren’t they down in these streets of St. Louis? There is NFL team in Detroit and Cleveland and Chicago. Where are these players? Why aren’t they in the streets asking for calm, if they think this is so simple?

If they think the police are screwing this up and the crazy injustice they’re talking about, why don’t they go down to the City of Chicago and also these other cities and why don’t they ask for peace?

Why don’t they tell these gangbangers, who should be locked up in prison, tell them to put the guns down? No, all we hear is this grandstanding on the NFL sidelines over the National Anthem. This stuff is crazy.”

Fox Business host Liz MacDonald noted at the beginning of the segment that Trevor Noah conveniently left out the fact that 59 people were murdered in the month of September alone — the exact same number who died in the recent Las Vegas mass murder.

As Chicagoan I’m disappointed. Only 5 dead. With so many shots my expectation is at least 10 dead

Was it cold and rainy over the weekend? As a cop I always liked that weather because it kept street crime and shootings down.
