Breaking: Close to 100 people shot in America in one week.

[TITAN308]

CHICAGO — Nearly 100 people have been shot in Chicago in less than a week — that’s between last Friday afternoon to early Thursday.

By the Chicago Tribune’s count, more than 2,500 people have become shooting victims this year. That’s up more than 800 from this time last year.

At least nine people were killed on Monday alone, making it the deadliest day in Chicago in 13 years. Among the wounded that day was a 10-year-old boy shot while playing on his front porch.

Additionally, last month was Chicago’s deadliest July in a decade with over 65 people killed.

Just kidding, this thread will die off because no one gives a shit about the demographics of the people shooting each other in Chicago.

Why does the demographic matter if it's people shooting people

Glad to see the strict gun control laws in Chicago are protecting innocent unarmed citizens from harms way.

I dont think innocents are making up the victims in this case.

Probably because it's more then just a big amount of guns going around. I mean sure gun control would help. There's just more to the problem but the OP is very very very pro gun person so it's more about agenda then discussing what the problem is.

Also why do I suspect you only posted this to masterbate over the inevitable pro v anti gun bickering whilst stroking your Taliban beard?

Gun control? You mean using both hands?

Actually in this case, it has more to do with actual lack of shits given determined by the demographics of the parties involved.

In any other news story, outside of this specific location (for example) we'd have a thread on it already.


"Suspected White (or hispanic will do in this case) or Muslim shoots 2 people, quick we need a 75 page thread"

Black people shoot up each other and no one cares.

Ad hominem isn't a strong argument.

Yeah i am sure that 10-year- old was some hardcore criminal.

...That is ironically the case whether people like it or not.

Why would this be news to anybody outside Chicago?

It's volume based. Those 100 people all have to be killed by the same thing at the same time to matter. It's just daily statistics.

what a suprise.

banning guns does not stop criminals from owning guns.

Bad wording on my part, if I had to guess, then most of those number are not innocent.

With that said, there are 10 year old gangbangers.

Chicago has a complete gun ban?

So you're basically saying "nobody cares because they're black" despite people making threads about black gunmen regular? What exactly is your point

[Azadina]

Chicago has a complete gun ban?

Nope. But facts never matter to pro-gun people.

[Skaiz]

Oh it's another Chicago gun/murder/warzone thread.

Chicago has a complete gun ban?

No, I have a CCW (conceal carry)license. Though this is a recent law that was set.

what does this even mean

Gun controll is pointless if anybody can just bring a gun from the outside. Its not like Chicago is a country with customs controll.

Gun controll is pointless if anybody can just bring a gun from the outside. Its not like Chicago is a country with customs controll.

In that case, if that's the argument you're making, then any gun ban in a non-island country is an exercise in futility because guns can always be smuggled in from a neighboring country. Unless you can guarantee complete and total control of anything coming into your country, which is an.impossibility, banning something people want is pointless. And yes, I am calling our current drug laws pointless.
