Whatever, some people are just blind. Fake claim indeed.
The claim that liberals never talk about Chicago violence is a fake claim. Period. It took me five seconds to find multiple speeches by Obama talking about Chicago violence. Not everything you read in CD is true. You need to learn that.

Everyone knows liberals have been demanding gun control for decades. The complaint here is that liberals should be more outraged about gun violence.... You can't make it up folks.

No outrage of black on black shootings. It does not fit their narrative. They want the legal gun owners to give up their guns and freedom.

Blacks killing blacks does not make their list. The more dead blacks with shooting one another or dying of a drug overdose they do not care. It is very obvious blacks dying by guns or drugs they support.

Why is the left not vocal and outraged at the number of gun deaths happening year after year in Chicago?
I guess considering Chicago, the Las Vegas shooting is peanuts.

Then again, if you consider the United States civil war, even Chicago isn't really a concern.

Thanks for putting that into perspective for me.

I love Whatboutism.

Seems like this thread was just started, to make some people feel good about themselves after Vegas. Like they just can't come to terms with the identity of the Vegas shooter, so lets start a thread about black people shooting each other. In the end, nothing is going to change. The Vegas shooting will eventually fade into the background, until the next shooting, then you will have more threads like this, and more thread like this, and the cycle will continue.

So what are the top 3 features of the cities that do have high murder rates?

Because they simply don't care unless the shooter is White. Anything else conflicts with their preconceived notions.

The fact that you only mention Chicago in context of other shootings,people of color, or the left/gun control shows that the low expectations are coming from you.
Any time the topic is brought up by someone on the right, someone on the left inevitably blames the black people killing each other on the streets of Chicago on white suburbanites rather than the failures of gun control. So I would say leftist have pretty low expectations if they have to resort to blaming black violence inside of the city on white people outside of the city.

Because most of them are innocent blacks in the hood or gang bangers.
