Seven Killed, 29 Wounded In City Shootings Over Weekend
................
Jason Seballos, 16, was shot in the back and cheek and taken to Illinois Masonic, where he was pronounced dead.
...................
About 12:50 a.m. Saturday, a 16-year-old girl was fatally shot and a 20-year-old man was wounded in West Englewood on the South Side.
Excerpts above from: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/08/18/seven-killed-28-wounded-in-city-shootings-over-weekend/

Where is the outrage? When will the protests begin? Where is Al Sharpton? When will Holder arrive? Will stores be looted? Where are the hordes of media? When will powerful politicians talk to the "families" of the victims? Will CNN interview the "witnesses?"

Wait......there is no "race" angle. There are no perceived bad white cops involved. Heck with it then, no big deal. :|

Apparently it looks as though Chicago is "The New Detroit". I have notice a lot of news coming out of Chicago about all the violence and killings, so you are correct....Where is Al Sharpton???

Nice try, everyone knows that they have strict gun laws up there so I doubt any of this is true.
Those two idiots go where the money is.

Yes, I always heard that strict gun laws make society safer, like in Chicago and DC. But we digress from the topic.

Or like in New York....sure:
15 shot in NYC within 8 hours, 2 dead

Of course NY no longer has that terrible, racist stop and frisk policy. So gang thugs can now breath a sigh of relief. 8-)

Sounds like the United States has a gun problem.

No, it has a thug problem and the inability of a rehabilitative justice system to control the violent elements in our society. 8-)

No, it's People using guns that is the problem. Calling it a "gun problem" is like calling drunk driving a "car problem". Both are People Problems.
