Chicago’s a democrat hellhole...

[napscoordinator]

I think the reason this is ignored is because the death rate is so low. People have terrible shooting skills in Chicago. If it was 13 dead maybe they’d take it seriously.

[high info voter]

In the city with the biggest gun control laws???

[DCBryan1]

I bet zero (0) deaths/injuries on Good Friday!? Right? RIGHT?!

Holding the gun sideways and up over your head looks SO COOL!!!!!!

13? Not bad for first warm weekend here in Chicago. Usually approaching 30+.

Soon, the new mayor will send in his army of social workers and everything will be fixed

Welcome to the new world disorder.

Chicago’s a democrat hellhole...

Killing of blacks by blacks, is a policy by the racist democrats. Democrats pretend to care about blacks, but what they do care about is eliminating blacks from the landscape.

The most racist people on earth are democrats, and they demonstrate it by keeping blacks poor and powerless and controlling them through the vote.

What is the race with the most abortions, percentage-wise? What is the race with the most fatherless households? What is the race that percentage-wise had the most people living in slum neighborhoods?

What is the race that is most easily duped by the democratic party?

Halftime score.

Just the preliminary rounds until the social workers ramp up, and in the immortal words of Doc Brown “then you’re going to see some serious s#!t”

[Rurudyne]

It isn’t gun violence, it’s gang violence. No gangs and the violent crime rate plummets.

Democrats care as much about blacks as Communists care about workers; hence, it’s the Democrat/Communist Party.
