I think it's incorrect of the newspaper to continue to state 228 when they're including justified & police related. It's actually 196 in 2016.

Looks like the police department doesn't always make the distinction in press releases. Looks like 210 was the number.

Of those 228 homicides, 18 were ruled justified, meaning 210 were criminal. According to Memphis police, 159 of those homicides have been solved, for a rate of about 70 percent.

Here again someone is killed or injured because someone else is the intended target. Be careful who you hang with or let your kids be around. Like the mass shooting last weekend on a pancake house patio, an intended target was killed but several others were injured by stray bullets.

Lots of mass shootings in Chicago and across urban America this summer.

This with 8,000 Chicago cops on the streets this weekend.
Chicago weekend update...60 shot, 9 killed.

Ok. Either the FBI UCR for 2016 received incorrect info or last minute update in cases the following year.

ABC and NBC reporting 10 shot & killed in Chicago over the weekend:

Luckily it was cool and a couple thunderstorms.

Tough to keep up with this past weekends violence it seems as it’s up to 61 shot, 10 killed.

At least CPD caught the killer of the young mother stabbed to death as she was stocking shelves at Walgreens.

18 year old POS named Sincere Williams was nabbed at his Old Town residence in the 1400 block of N Sedgwick. Williams is suspected in other robberies as well including an attempt to rob the same Walgreens a few days before he killed the 32 year old mother of 2 young children.

Importing votes huh? Slick way to de-legitimize the votes of others. Then again its no wonder voter suppression is an official Republican strategy. Good old democracy at work.

I know the name of the game. Play it with someone who doesn't. The left knows they could never gain control without flooding the country via mass immigration and diluting the votes of one demographic that stands in their way. We didn't move the goalposts, you did.
