If we bring it up we will be accused of being racist. This shooting we don't know the color of the shooter and 1 person is dead.

Why does it deserve a special thread of it's own? OP feel special since maybe it's a white shooter which is very unusual for Chicago ?
Shooter was not white and was 45.

Body count now stands at 5 civilians, plus the shooter.

Yes, but open borders between states negate individual state gun laws.

We need nation-wide strict gun laws to have any real impact.
