People tend to be more active in warmer months. The more people you have around, the more chances you have at running across someone that pisses you off...

This is what you get if you allow morons to walk the streets armed to the teeth.

I notice that Chicago still has a Mayor from the Daley family.Whats so special about them?
Vote the buggas out and give someone else chance. Thats what I say.

Do I smell the whiff of corruption ?

With all due respect, seeks, you don't know Jack about the Daleys, Chicago, it's politics or history. Why do you feel the need to comment on things you know nothing about, sir ?

Too much freedom of speech, too many guns.

yeah, heat and free speech really get to guns after a while...now if the criminals would keep their guns in refrigerated, sound proof carrying cases, this type of thing might not happen....

*lol* it took me a minute, but that was very good!!

Notice that each time one of these type shootings occur, it is followed by heavy media coverage thus equals fame. Like Glen Beck or not, he thinks some people are worshiping a "Fame God".
In other words they are doing these killings for fame. I tend to agree with him.
Chicago has had its share of shootings lately. Could be gang/mafia related. Who knows, but it is defenitely getting out of hand as the economy gets worse.

it happens every year - as soon as the weather turns warmer, gangs come out of hiding despite the change in curfew hours. i live in Englewood and have noticed more police patroling however it's not going to last.

I would bet all the shooters had illegal weapon not registered to them,goes to show you if one wanted a weapon there are a ton of them out there.I go to a lot of gun shows and I do purchase guns from time to time .If this loop hole was tighten up a lot of illegal weapons would dry up....I am a big believer in the right to own and bear arms but do it the correct way...HnH

The part that gets on my nerves is that 36 were shot, and only 10 died. We try to sugar coat it.

Natural order as exhibited in sociobiology is just culling some folks from the population. Our society reaps what it sows.

They said on the News tonight that 5 more were killed in the same area last night.

Chicago Homicides 1990-2007
1990: 851
1991: 927
1992: 943
1993: 931
1994: 929
1995: 827
1996: 789
1997: 759
1998: 704
1999: 641
2000: 628
2001: 666
2002: 647
2003: 598
2004: 448
2005: 449
2006: 452
2007: 435

Here you go....In 2007 435 people were murdered in Chicago...The fewest in the last 17 years. You would think from the news that people were killing each other like Cub losses.

It's all hype....Be very afraid. We are led to believe that things are getting worse when in fact things are actually improving....Who would have thunk it? We are led around by the nose...No one questions shit.

It's sad that of late some kids were gunned down...Almost everything is gang related. It sucks and there is no end to the problem in sight. The problem runs deep and is so multilayered that there is no easy solution.

Only ten out of 36?

Damn, see how doing drugs screws up your marksmanship?
