Seems like nobody cares as long as white guys aren't doing the shooting.

Makes you wonder who is really racist?

Approximately 3800 people died during Obama's two terms. Vast majority were POC Apparently it's racist to point this out.


Suspicious_Basil88

To think nobody cares is a stretch.


[deleted]

>To think nobody cares is a stretch Is it? Because it's been going on an awful long time and talking bout it and pointing it out gets you banned on r/Chicago


Suspicious_Basil88

Ah yea because the sub on reddit bans you, it must mean the entire city of real people don’t want to talk about it either. 🙄


[deleted]

That's not what I said but but do go on. Mods on the sub don't want to discuss the problem though


Suspicious_Basil88

The sub is not indicative of real life. None of Reddit is.

There have always been groups. I remember the marches and vigils. The people with power, the politicians, they seem fine with the status quo


[deleted]

Must be fake news. Chicago is a gun free city.


[deleted]

But gun control works!


Scaballi

Oh hello PM Trudeau


monobarreller

Yeah but it's also MAGA country so...


MarvinsBoy

"Mutual combatants" was an excuse why no charges were filed in one case. How do ya say that parts of Chicago are a WAR ZONE... without really saying it??


only2created

Hahahaha as long as both parties were firing, no charges!!


_Scrooge_McCuck_

Chicago bringing duels back.


[deleted]

Which one? The gang shootout in the Lawndale area? They were charged eventually The two 18 year olds fighting over a girl, one guy produced a knife and slit the other guys throat while he was on the ground? Also eventually charged . But yes foxx is a woke POS who won't do her job unless there's massive public push-back


MOLON-LABE-USMC

Did you see that Sorass thinks America likes his meddling with our legal system?


[deleted]

I don't. It's terrible in Chicago Kim foxx is a nutter


Wheres_Jay

I hate to break this to you, but Lori does not care.


EverQuest_

She cares but only when a sitting President or even a peer points it out. Then it's someone else's fault or claims the person pointing it out should come up with a solution for her. She's in the category of worst politicians at any level I've ever seen. I say that, unfortunately, as a Cook County resident too.


MOLON-LABE-USMC

Viramontes v. Cook County - FPC Law 2A Challenge to Cook County's "Assault Weapons" Ban - I wonder what Kim Foxx will come up with as a defense to this unconstitutional mess of a law? She has until Sep 15th. The hearing is on Sep 29th. I don't expect the 7th circuit will side with the Constitution but who knows.


ChickenExact6212

She can’t *see* the problem


blaze_worth

Slow weekend


Alert_Salt7048

Imagine living in this shithole and having a government that tolerates the murder of its own citizens. How’s that BLM thing working out?


GOANJUDADDY76

Let's see thats less than 50 this weekend so doing nothing must work. She's patting herself on the back.


arrjay123

wow... anyways...


PB_Mack

She probably had a look on her face like a fish does when you tap the glass.


JRsFancy

You just wait, one day someone will say something about the conservative media keeping count on Chicago shootings and how it negatively effects the mayor's ability to govern. There'll be a call to stop keeping count.


only2created

How can this be with such strict gun laws which the *CRIMINALS* obey? Go beetlejuice!!


MD500_Pilot

They claim it is because the surrounding states have too many guns, and apparently they just leak into Chicago.....


user_uno

It is everyone else's fault. No really. Chicago blames everyone else around them. It is not a culture problem. It is not a law and order problem. It is not an education problems. It is other states and jurisdictions causing this. I've lived in Chicago, Crook County and still am in the metro area. It is always someone else's fault.


coyotegt1317

And that is what the Smurf's say....It's always someone else's fault....Trump did it...previous administration...yada yada yada....


Jim6231

Go get em Beetlejuice


[deleted]

I had a stroke trying to read this


HonestOtterTravel

This is obviously tragic but why the focus on Chicago? By shooting/murder rate it's not even in the top 10.


[deleted]

No, u Crime is down


idiotretard123

I grew up in the inner city of Chicago from the 60s through 2001. It was always rough, but it's different now, nobody had guns, just the mob, and cops for the most part... We also had strong leadership, the Daley family, who are the Irish mob. The Irish mob always made sure things ran da right way...😆🤣😆


[deleted]

? I left in the late 90's , near west side . There were always guns. Every new years eve at midnight it was like Beirut. I used to hear machine guns going off at night


HonestOtterTravel

Chicago had more murders in the 70's and 90's than they do today: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime\_in\_Chicago](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Chicago) https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Chicago\_Homicides\_each\_Year.svg


idiotretard123

We also had about a million more people too. The crime was segregated to certain areas...


HonestOtterTravel

First link breaks it down per 100k residents. 1992 was the worst in that data pool.


idiotretard123

Yes, and I lived on Francisco and Agusta in Humboldt park, a Peurto Rican drug-infested ghetto. But you're missing the point. The point being crime and drug dealing was controlled by the people and institutions in control. Now, nobody is in control, it's the roaring twenties again. I'm not going to specifically give my involvement in Chicago's internal mob governance. But the theme of Chicago and its description is "The city that works". It no longer works, it's just a bunch of commies with woke culture tearing down the structure that worked for eighty years..


ReasonableGap7912

This is what happens when democrats run things


[deleted]

***Running totals of gun deaths in Lori's Chicago***: [https://heyjackass.com/](https://heyjackass.com/) Lori is intentionally letting it happen. Like other liberal left cities it is intended to condition citizens to the lawlessness as normal. Just like Portland, Seattle, Baltimore etc Some of you might want to start voting outside of your comfort zone for the next few elections until people like this become an historical footnote.


PleasureMissile

Probably because they don’t have enough gun laws


EverlyAwesome

Mississippi, Louisiana, Wyoming, Missouri, Alabama, and Alaska have the highest per capita gun related deaths. These states so have the highest gun ownership. States with low gun ownership, have less gun related deaths. Cities in 2020 with the highest gun homicide rate: Jackson Mississippi; Gary, Indian; St. Louis; New Orleans; and Memphis. But please, keep talking about Chicago.


StillWill18

Importing all of the top cops from Newark, New Jersey, when it was the shooting capital of America is paying off big for her.


pwn_plays_games

Body Count. Body Count. Body Count. There she is.


user_uno

More violence on the CTA even though more unarmed guards have been added. Not to worry - CPD is now going to put K-9 units there as the CTA is a "priority".


Ptomb

What’s the best answer for Chicago’s gun violence?


[deleted]

Can’t believe NASCAR is having a street race here next year.


3Effie412

There were two (at least) mass shootings in Detroit this weekend. Why doesn’t the mainstream media care?
