An irony so tragic there are no words to define it. Grandma wearing an Obama change t-shirt. http://wgntv.com/2014/07/18/10-year-old-girl-shot-on-chicagos-west-side/ Nearly 2 dozen shot so far this weekend. http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/2014...o-shootings-include-two-children-among-22-hit Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel was emotional on Wednesday as he talked about the shooting death of a 15-year-old Chicago honor student. He paused several times as he described his conversation with the mother of Hadiyah Pendleton, a King College Prep freshman who was shot while she, and a group of kids,took cover from the rain under a canopy at Vivian Gordon Harsh Park on the 4500 block of South Oakenwald Avenue around 2:30 p.m. Tuesday. What's wrong Rahm, your leftist utopia not working out? Here's an idea. Just surrender to the violence. Just give it up to the thugs. That seems to be the popular route to take these days.
Well, that's good. That should put a stop to the shootings. If it doesn't help, just do a bigger rally and march. If they have enough big rallies and marches, surely somebody will get capped right at the thing.
Did I say nearly 2 dozen? Make it 40 so far. Do I hear 50? 50 going once...Rahm is in tears no doubt. Reuters) - An 11-year-girl was shot and killed during a slumber party as violence struck Chicago over the weekend, local media outlets reported on Sunday. At least 40 people were shot, and four killed, in weekend violence in the third-largest U.S. city, the NBC affiliate in Chicago reported. The deaths included an 11-year-old girl, shot in the head inside a first-floor bedroom on Friday night after someone fired a gun from outside the house, said Chicago Police Officer Jose Estrada. Shamiya Adams, who died the next day, had been sitting on the floor during a sleep-over at her best friend's home, the Chicago Tribune reported. The Chicago Police Department on Sunday had not released an official tally of the weekend violence. But reports of another outbreak of gunfire came as the city has been grappling with a wave of summer violence.
Where's Al Sharpton and the rest of these liberals who preach the doctrine of "white supremacy"? Are they gonna address this or continue to try sweep it under the rug? Or are they gonna kick the narrative that poverty brought on by the on-going legacy of slavery is cause?
Samuel Walker Sr. had been preparing for the funeral of his teenage son, Samuel Walker Jr., who was gunned down last Friday in East Garfield Park. Now his family must decide whether to hold a joint memorial instead. On Thursday, the elder Walker was shot to death in a Humboldt Park gangway â just two days before his 13-year-old son was to be laid to rest. Walker just had his hair cut, and was on his way to get a cigarette, when he came across his killer near Division and Keeler about 9 a.m., those close to him said. Authorities said Walker, a member of the Vice Lords street gang, bolted north up Keeler and into a gangway, attempting to flee the gunman, who chased him on foot. Neighborhood resident Gail Reynolds, 54, said she was sitting on a bench beneath a tree when she saw a man run past on the other side of the street, followed by the crackle of gunfire. Walker was shot in the head and torso. He died at the scene, authorities said. âThatâs a cold motherf - - - - - who wants to shoot a motherf- - - - - in the morning,â Reynolds said. âIâm glad he didnât shoot me.â By noon, hundreds of onlookers gathered to mourn. An eerie silence crept over the crowd when authorities hoisted Walkerâs body off the driveway and into a police wagon to be taken away. Family members were upset and complained that his body had been lying outside more than three hours. âAnts and s - - - are crawling all over him,â one relative said. http://www.suntimes.com/news/crime/...slain-teen-fatally-shot-in-humboldt-park.html
A teenage gang member on his way to get cigarettes gets killed? For some reason I feel no sadness or sympathy whatsoever.
How pathetic! During his time in the U.S. House and as Chicagoâs mayor, Rahm Emanuel secured more than $2 million in funding for the group. ...... has received millions in federal, state and city tax dollars. Perhaps Rahm is queer himself!! Chicago could be the next Detroit and tax dollars are being allocated to crap like this.
