CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least 13 people have been shot, four fatally, in weekend violence across Chicago, police said.

SATURDAY

A man and a woman were injured after a shooting inside a Chatham take-out Chinese food restaurant in the 600-block of East 79th Street Saturday on the South Side. Police said an 18-year old man and a 24-year old woman were inside the restaurant when an unidentified gunman walked into the eatery and began firing, striking both victims. An 18-year-old man was brought to the University of Chicago Hospital with a gunshot wound to the lower back and is now listed in good condition. A 24-year-old woman was also struck in the back and was able to drive herself to a nearby hospital. She's listed in fair condition. So far, the Area 2 police detectives' investigation into the attack is just getting underway and no one is in custody.

FRIDAY

Two people were shot to death and another critically wounded in a drive-by shooting in Austin on the West Side. A man in his 20s and a woman, 29, were traveling south in the 200-block of South Cicero Avenue about 11:15 p.m. Friday when someone in a beige SUV drove up next to them and a person inside began shooting, Chicago police said.

There were 31 people shot, six fatally, in gun violence across the city last weekend.

Sounds more like Chicago maggot thug violence than gun violence. Those guns are inanimate objects. They didn’t do anything other than what street pieces of meat with two eyes did with them while holding them captive.

13 shot; 4 dead.. again, on an average weekend in Chicago…

I wonder when the news is gonna come up with the brilliant idea of saying it’s all being done by MAGA “Trumpsters”?

Knowing them, I can’t understand what’s taking so long..

Actually their accuracy or lack there of may be intentional. As long as Death Rate stays a small fraction of total shootings, the Feds and City Officials will pretty much ignore the violence.

It will be kind of hard to ignore large numbers of bodies stacking up every weekend. The number of wounded are really not a statistic that matters.

I remember when in Wilmington DE, people kept getting shot in the legs.
Below the waist was deemed not to be attempted murder.
Lovely people…

I’ve heard that that’s why so many Turks get stabbed in the ass.

Makes sense. Hurt your enemy, get a lesser charge if caught.

Note the wording: “Gun violence.”

Guns are becoming sentient and shooting folks? Uh, no.

It’s thug violence.

All of this is by design. Allow enough carnage and mayhem and those that can afford it that might vote against the Demonrats will move away.

Then the violence itself becomes justification for taking away guns from law-abiding citizens.

So all of this is by design and for a purpose.
