Epic Gun Control FAIL: Chicago Is A ‘War Zone’

    Over 60 people were shot in Chicago over the weekend, 40 of whom were shot in a 7 hour time period making gun control an epic fail. Many of those shot succumbed to their injuries and ended up dying in one of the areas with the strictest gun control policies.

    ABC 7 Chicago reports that from Friday at 5 p.m. through Sunday night at least 63 people were shot, with at least 10 dying from their injuries  One paramedic reportedly described the streets of Chicago as being “a war zone,” reported The Daily Wire.  “We know that some of these incidents were targeted and are related to gang conflicts in those areas,” Chicago Police Chief of Patrol Fred Waller said on Sunday. “They take advantage of that opportunity and they shoot into a crowd, no matter who they hit.”

    So gang bangers don’t care about laws? You don’t say. ABC 7 Chicago also reported that “during one two-and-a-half hour-hour period, 25 people were shot in five multi-injury shootings.” Most of the shooting took place in Chicago’s South Side and West Side according to the Chicago Tribune. Police continue to blame gangs for Chicago’s violence. 

    The bloody and violent statistics comes as tens of thousands of concertgoers converged downtown for Lollapalooza, which drew heightened security and a large police presence following the country’s deadliest mass shooting at a Las Vegas music festival last year. But it obviously didn’t help much in a city which boasts about having some of the nation’s toughest gun control laws. Making good people helpless won’t make bad people harmless, and unfortunately, that’s something the left refuses to accept.

    The largest shooting over the weekend in Chicago, which injured eight people including a 14-year-old girl, took place in the South Side’s Gresham neighborhood. The shooting occurred as a group was standing in a courtyard just before 12:40 a.m. The crowd had gathered after attending a funeral repass, said Fred Waller, Chicago police chief of patrol.

    During a Sunday news conference, Waller voiced frustration at gang members whom he blamed for taking advantage of large summer crowds to use as cover to take revenge. “If they shoot you, they don’t even run,” said one man watching police work the scene, according to The Chicago Tribune. “They just walk away, they ain’t trying to run.” Does anyone want to take a guess as to why that is?  Because the gang bangers know everyone else has been legally disarmed and there’s no risk to the gang banger at all whatsoever.

      1. Move out of the cesspool…

        Gun control is placing you shots…

        • We can recover from natural disasters, wars, terrorism, and economic collapses.

          We cannot recover our comparatively high average IQs after mixing with non whites.

          Idiotic white women think theyre really making a statement by dating disgusting black men and adopting black babies.

          They call it “progress”. I call it SICK.

          It makes me want to vomit.

          This is what happens where there is no father figure around to keep the idiots in line.

          • Most of this shit is done by our 13 percenters. Such a peaceable lot.

            • Gun control has nothing to do with stopping violence.

              Gun control is people control.

              The law abiding people obey. The thugs do not, but gun control was never meant to stop them, only meant to disarm and control the people that obey.

              • yep

                • Only your enemy , wants you disarmed.?

                • JS, good points but I don’t follow any laws that can interfere with self-defense. I’ve been carrying certain self-defense items in the truck with me everywhere I go since WACO and that was 25 years ago. No stupid unconstitutional law will ever prevent me from defending myself.

              • Its stated there are blacks, what about muslims?
                Why put Lalapalooza there?

            • The fighting age blacks are 3% of US population,and comit 50% of the murders.?

              • TH, that’s right, according to the FBI and DOJ statistics. On the murders it’s around 75%, not just 50.

          • These “women” are Race Traitors.

      2. In the words of Clint Eastwood, “dying ain’t much of a living, boy”…

        • Wanna die? Just visit Chi land aka gangland….

          • Im sure the scum obama is proud given many people were shot on his new holiday. That is the stupidest thing ever. Obamanation day, but appropriate for that fucked up state I guess.

      3. Chicago is in Cook County, Il. The States Attorney in Cook County is Kim Fox. She is a black Marxist. She has been refusing to prosecute black offenders with felony charges. She lowers armed carjacking to misdemeanor trespass to motor vehicle. She does this with many felons. She lowers the charges to misdemeanor so that she can call them non-violent crimes. This way the black offenders can be released without having to post bond. They won’t spend a single night in jail. That’s why carjackings have skyrocketed in the Chicago area. No jail time. That’s why the gang bangers are carrying guns more often. No jail time. This lawlessness results in more shootings. A reasonable person would think this is intentional. Purposely running up the shootings and death rate, in order to pass more gun control. This is nothing less than a domestic “Fast and Furious”. I charge genocide.

        • “I charge genocide”

          Works for me.
          I think we ought to pass out handguns in the hood and let nature take its course.
          Shootings and Planned Parenthood are the only effective method of keeping the black population in check.

          • Black people shooting each other, sounds pretty good to me.

          • Pass out free guns, give each crack head $1000.

            They will kill each other, and the ones that don’t will die from a drug overdose.

            • This is beyond dope dealers. There is a cultural acceptance within the minority community to use violence to settle disputes that a rung or two up the social economic ladder would be either a walk away or involve an attorney and law suit. As that economic ladder is climbed misbehavior becomes very expensive. Most then adapt to civilized behavior. Many become a conservative at least in social interaction if not outlook when they acquire something to conserve.

            • JS,
              Guns for Gangs is not far from the truth. There are repeated reports that some entity with deep pockets, and access to lots of firearms has been dropping off boxes of guns and ammo for local gangs in most large US cities.

              Gang members literally report they find boxes of free guns in the ally behind their hideouts.

              Top quality firearms, extra magazines and ammo.

              There is a political agenda here, and I suspect it’s all about taking down the second amendment. This is patterned after Obama’s “Fast and Furious” gun running program. It has been going on for years. Our inner cities are awash in illegal guns.

              If you want to start a revolution, find a hungry man and give him a gun. No food, just a gun. Chaos and Revolution will follow.

        • Him, we all saw what happened in Baltimore when that boy was allegedly killed by the local PD. You had both a black mayor and a black prosecutor who didn’t care about the crime problems and Baltimore is just a smaller version of Shitcago. Similar situation in my city. A black prosecutor alone is a significant problem. The one in Chicago has already shown her “true colors”.

        • Amen, “J’accuse Genocide”.

      4. Your solution assumed that the same exact people, responsible for the massacres, should have moral and intellectual responsibilities.

      5. I’ll bet it’s 100% black-on-black …but black lives matter, don’t forget.
        Just not to blacks themselves.

        • So why is Africa still a total shithole? Oh….that right, look who the population is.

          • You mean “Chiafricago”?

            Blacks make up 17% of the US population but are convicted for 75% of Americas crime. And thats a fact. FBI/Dept of Justice Statistics.

            So dont ban guns, ban blacks.

            • TSB, that’s right. It’s a PEOPLE problem, NOT a gun problem.

        • Jim on Jerz, that’s Black CRIMINAL Lives Matter. They’re totally bogus and they’re bankrolled by George
          Soros.

      6. in the spring of 16 the LE announced a recharge and re-emphasis on the RICO laws. The RICO statutes more or less make the leader of a gang culpable for the gangs activities and were born to curb the mafias stranglehold on the city post prohibition. Charged with warrants the LE arrested many of the gangs leaders and higher ups and a bloodbath followed with over-achievers marking their territory and settling scores. Combine the unsettled chain of command going to the mattresses and cops unable to stop and search – viola. august in 2018 Chicago is a war zone.

        • You nailed it totally. Thanks.

      7. Hawaii has even worse gun laws than Chicago. We have a fairly low crime rate. The big difference is we have a very small Amish population. Democrats here credit our strict laws that no one pays much attention to, for the peace and quiet. I credit the lack of the Amish and strong extended family bonds for our relative peace and quiet.

        • Hawaii is what happens when Asians take hold of the constitutional rights of an area, and third world police state bend it.? Seems more and more 8% ers. Whity. Are realizing we just can’t get along? But how do we separate?

          • “But how do we separate?”.
            Kill power and block major roads to about 10 major cities in Blue states for a year or so and the problem will be solved.

            • And how many guys like you do we have? Hopefully more then we think?Guys with wife and kids.? It might be an army of old guys that figure ,my kids are full grown , They don’t need me.

      8. I wonder how much of Chicongo is already a no-go area for police, et al?

        • The CPD answer most calls only with multiple cruiser cars, they’ll wait a few blocks off so that their team can form up, if necessary. They have to. Many CPD now are ex-military, from Iraq wars, and they say that it’s more dangerous over here than over there.

          In the 1990’s I was shot in Chicago by a sniper, who was never caught. I know. Enter at your own risk on the south and west sides. These bad guys are fiercer than any soldier, they won’t hesitate to kill. And all CNN can do is bad mouth the cops, who are desperate to keep the neighborhoods from being burned to the ground and survive themselves.

          • Son of patriot, the situation in Shitcago is what they call DIVERSITY. [SARCASM DEFINITELY INTENDED]

          • Let the cities burn. Chicago. Baltimore. LA. Boston. St. Louis. That will solve the problems.

      9. Send Feinstein, and Schumer up there they will stop it.

        • Imagine “Jews Against Guns”. That has an Historic ring to it?

          I love the fact that Chicago has reasonable gun laws. Why? This insures the negro will have guns and will help the cops fight crime by themselves.

          Nothing will come from these situations since it is Sambo killing Sambo, which everybody expects and nobody cares about.

          Now, if a WHITE man is involved, then it means something, since White Men are held to a far, far, far higher standard of behavior than the boy negro. That is only normal.

      10. The Cook County States Attorney, Kim Fox, refused to charge a gang member with illegal possession of a firearm, even though they had 15 minutes of video of this idiot with the gun in his waste band. Because the police didn’t have dna off the gun when they wanted to charge him. So he walked free. You folks may not get this. It sounds funny to say give out free guns in the ghetto so they kill each other, but the politicians are using this to outlaw your 2nd amendment.

      11. Their is a reason for boarders, hey, we don’t want to live with Canadians, let alone Mexicans or Africans, The Mexicans have Mexico, The Africans have almost an entire continent. Same for Asians . Whitey is losing ground, And has no where to run? If we did we’d be long gone? I wonder if these third world types like the excitement and danger. Even with their own kids in the crossfire. But it’s always the fighting age males jockeying for fame fortune and sex?

      12. Welcome to America’s jungle – who needs spears when you can have a gun!

      13. Some say they shut down Alex Jones? Seems like a very confident move? What don’t we know?

      14. Go, RRRham, do not let a crisis go to waste!

      15. President Trump has an amazing opportunity to make very serious increases to his black approval numbers by intervening into the Chicago shootings the people in Chicago are begging him to help them to help. Despite the fact that Mayor & Obama acolyte Rahm Emanuel declaring Chicago a Trump free zone. One Chicago resident even Called Emanuel a con man.

        • “One Chicago resident even Called Emanuel a con man.”
          One of them eh?
          Wow, such a stand.
          Name calling ain’t gonna help.
          They need to DO something.
          They won’t.

      16. Shicago…is a h£ll hole. Ghettos do one thing….insure
        that the community grows hateful, racist, and anti establishment.
        The lack of fathers, sometime mothers, no morals, no
        responsibilities, street culture, and gang influence. Too much time
        with nothing meaningful to do or learn.

        This is what Obumhole was tryig to accomplish for 8 years.
        Remember him saying,…rural areas are bad for organizing??
        Keep people from spreadig out into the country???

        Those kinds of people make good demoncraps. Easy to
        recruit for the “Occupy” protests.
        There are more black killings
        because more blacks congregate there…drugs are easier sold
        to inner cities, “organized” easier and “divided” by races.

      17. A poem written by Englishman Rudyard Kipling, c.1895. Did young Donald read this when he was a boy?

        “If you can keep your head when all about you
        Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
        If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
        But make allowance for their doubting too;
        If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
        Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
        Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
        And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

        If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
        If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
        If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
        And treat those two impostors just the same;
        If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
        Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
        Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
        And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

        If you can make one heap of all your winnings
        And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
        And lose, and start again at your beginnings
        And never breathe a word about your loss;
        If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
        To serve your turn long after they are gone,
        And so hold on when there is nothing in you
        Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

        If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
        Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
        If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
        If all men count with you, but none too much;
        If you can fill the unforgiving minute
        With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
        Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
        And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son

      18. Im all for constitutional Carry. But in Chicago i would except a CCW permit carrier allowed in all the city and state minus the Courthouse / police department, state kinda places. And reciprocal to any other CCW holder.. gangs are too much. The gun restrictions are hindering not helping in Illinois and Chicago. Bad Guys Dont Follow the Law! .. if NRA and GOA and pro gun Trump, and The others organizations and Politicos who support and use guns and a NRA Support needs to change ALL these unconstitutional Gun Restrictional Laws! And Begin to punish criminals to the Maximum Penalty. Prisons have NO room you say? How many prisons are there in all 50 states? House them out of state a prison is a prison. Take kid gloves off! Hand them water or coffee, a banana or random fruit and a poptart or some scrambled Eggs for breakfast. A sandwich made of lunch meat on bread with choice of toppings, and a bag of chips 2xs a day, will save some money. Make them work a garden if they want vegetables, lettuce, potatoes…

        • I don’t know the pepper spray or stungun laws, but Sabre makes the hottest stuff , and two s-1005s and some gell, 12 foot range , and double power shock. And cheap enough to throw away?

        • Any person who carries a gun without a CCW Permit is a moron. It is a basic permit like a fishing license. You get caught you deserve punishment. Big talkers on here. Blah blah. Go ahead and get caught. And you go ahead and give your bravado speech to the judge as he sentences you a hefty fine and maybe jail time. A CCW PERMIT is only like $90 and no different than a gun purchase background check. Wanna take that chance and be charged with a felony and then they take all your guns away?. Are you really that dumb?

          Do I agree with the crappy law? No, but be prepared, because its their crappy law, their court, and their jail that has power over the situation and your sorry lazy ass who fails to know or obey their rules. The CCW in FL is good for like 8-9 years. I carry worry free. You all have been warned.

          And every state has different rules when traveling in that state. Ignorance is not an excuse. Go move to a more generous gun law state like FL. No,dont move to FL, plenty of clueless transplant idiots here already. Move to GA or Alabama. 20% of their population has a CCW Permit. FL is 10%.

          Evern in FL as long as you are, umm over 18, probably 21 now, and a non felon you can carry a loaded pistol in the glove box, with no permit.

      19. The third world destruction of the inner cities will grow, More and bigger NoGo zones. Nullify all illegal extortion anchor baby citizenship. What’s wrong with living in Mexico? You will be surrounded by the beautiful Mexican people and culture, what could be better? And you 3% responsible for 50% of the murders. What do you think we should do with you?

      20. They won’t do anything to stop the murders because they like things just as they are. Not every black man can make millions playing sports so they murder for play. Tampa once had an area to avoid, the old Ybor City area just outside downtown once famous for cigar manufacturing. I stayed away from that area when walking north from the city. Rioting there in 1967, now cleaned up and a potential $900 million new stadium site for the Rays move from St. Pete.

        • YBor city after dark is still not very safe. Still plenty of shootings and robbery muggings. It was a fun place back in the 1990’s. The Rays? Let them buy their own stadium, and not the Tax Payers. That communism, aka: Tampa Sports authority. We got hosed badly with the Bucs Stadium. And when they fail to sell out a game they black out the game to the locals. Total BS. You dont wanna live in Seminole heights these days. Not too safe as a white person. I lived in Hyde Park and Ballast Point a block from the bay back when.

        • Who paid for the cleanup? The government? That sounds like socialism!

      21. If the overwhelming percentage of a population is raised with no male authority figure, no male role model, and no male breadwinner, is it a surprise that the offspring run wild on the streets and shoot each other with abandon when the opportunity to make a quick buck in the drug trade is offered to them?

        These offspring go to school and get no education because getting “learning” isn’t cool in their social circles. They ignore their mothers first, and then they ignore their teachers. As a result, they obtain no skills, and have no prospects for ever getting a decent job.

        The first person who attempts to exercise some authority over them is a cop who is dealing with some situation these types have created, and their first instinct is to fight the cop. Then we hear about what a “good boy” he was from his mama on Eyewitness News (and very seldom from a father, if that issue has ever been established.

        All of this is why the South Side of Chicago is a crap hole now, and it will be a crap hole 100 years from now.

        You can’t fix stupid.

      22. Its stated there are blacks, what about muslims?
        Why put Lalapalooza there?

      23. Chicago the new adventure land for those who seek the thrill of killing the most deadly animal on earth…MAN. Call it a Safari, or Adventure but you can sell guided hunts, or practice your sniper skills, entry skill assessment against an armed enemy…like being at war and not leaving the country. Endless possibilities.

      24. Q)Why isn’t this considered a mass shooting?
        A)Because only white men are mass shooters.
        Hypocrisy!
        This has nothing to do with gun control and everything to do about culture.

      25. Here’s a timeline of recent changes to Chicago’s laws:

        • June 2010: Chicago’s ban on handguns was ended by the Supreme Court in the McDonald v. Chicago case

        • December 2012: Illinois’ concealed carry ban — the last of its kind in the United States — ended in a court decision, though the state still restricts where people can carry concealed guns

        • July 2013: The Firearm Concealed Carry Act went into effect, providing regulations for concealed carry

        • September 2013: Chicago ends its gun registry

        • January 2014: A judge rejected Chicago’s ban on gun shops

        • June 2017: Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a law that’s meant to lead to harsher punishments for people repeatedly convicted of gun crimes

        • And it keeps getting worse.
