30 shot in a few shot hours. Young kids and teens out at 2 in the morning. Where are the parents? Drunk or high I’m assuming.

The black community shouldn’t worry about some racist white cop. They need to worry about their own people in their community. Where is black lives matter on this?

As someone who lives in Chicago this is nothing new. They talk about how much they dont want police in their neighborhoods, and how police should not be there and should not be shooting these thugs, then they cry about why arent police their stopping this violence!

The police here cannot win. The thugs attack them, the media attacks them and the politicians attack them, then you have scum like Jessie jackson and father Phlagar attacking them. Then they all cry about why arent the police doing anything!!!

Sadly we have had way too many cops here killed recently and also 6 have committed suicide due to the pressure and stress they are under here.

And no the useless BLM are nowhere to be found.

For the record though most of Chicago which is a huge city is a wonderful incredible city. But like any city it has its bad areas and this damn hot weather we are now getting is when those areas really get bad!

No, this problem cannot be "solved." Proof that what you're thinking of won't make any difference is, murder rates in many red states are among the highest in the nation.

If you think applying conservative principles to this problem will solve this problem, the fact that conservative Louisiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Alaska, Mississippi and South Carolina constitute 7 of the top 10 states with the highest murder rates, indicates that conservatism will not solve the problem.

I can guarantee that most of that crime is taking place in blue urban areas with high minority populations. So whether the state is red or not is irrelevant. Most people consider IL to be a blue state but it really isn't. something like 97 of 105 counties went for trump. Its all because of the city of Chicago (cook co.)

And we are beginning to see the county AG is doing NOTHING to curtail crime.

No we need to punish more people who haven't done anything wrong. We need to relieve them of their property and demonize them, all of them, because a very very few use guns to break the law.

We should never blame the actual shooters. We should blame the firearm. We should blame the guys who own guns who have never broken the law.

We should also blame the police. Its got to be their fault somehow.

Finally we should blame the orange guy. I know that it was all happening before Trump took office, but it some how must be his fault anyway.
