Let's see if the national mainstream media outlets pick this up. More importantly let's see if Biden addresses this tragedy or visits Chicago as he visited the mass shooting in New York.

Eventually people will get fed up with this and they will demand very tough gun laws, even the point of going door to door, searching and confiscating...Problem is, lots of people will not allow their homes to be searched, (even when safety/security are at risk).


Ultimately, going door to door would be the only effective way to stop this, registration or new gun laws will have no impact, because its too late for those things, far too many unknown guns already out there.


If door to door confiscations were even attempted, lots of families would not see their family members returning home that day!

He's be going there every weekend.

Plus, he didn't show up for Waukesha, WI's racially motivated mass killing so why would he go to Chicago?

Sure, go ahead and try this - there will be blood in the streets. And then the Mexican drug cartels will flood American with illegal, poorly made hand guns. We can't even keep drugs out of our prisons, so how in the **** are we gonna keep guns off the streets.

What people are getting fed up about is mindless assertions that guns are the problem, instead of all the other things that need to be addressed....

Why is it important to you if Biden addresses this tragedy or visits Chicago?

This is where its heading though, how many more elementary schools do you think society will tolerate being shot up?


Door to door searches and confiscations WILL happen at some point...and yes, that will lead to a blood bath, and maybe that is intentional. I dont think all these shootings are coincidental, i think many were planned and carried out for specific reasons.


The stage we are at right now...getting society to the point of no longer tolerating these shootings, the more that happen and the more that result in children being victims makes this move faster.

For the same reason it was important that Biden addressed the tragedy in New York.

It was important to you that he addressed the tragedy in New York? I dont understand why you like Joe Biden so much. Are you going to vote for him again in 2024?

Once upon a time, if you did something like this in Chicago, in nicer, touristy areas....the police would come down so hard on the gangs involved that they'd occasionally even kill their own members that brought that much heat.

Wonder what they'll do this time.

Also wonder how many of the shooters were already out on bail for violent offenses.
