When my son was accepted to the University of Chicago three years ago he fell in love with the campus. I’m really happy he chose to go to Yale instead.

Bro, I’m pretty sure we aren’t supposed to care about this.

I won’t care about it until Kaepernick cares about it.

Chicago violence erupts during holiday weekend, at least 67 shot and 13 killed

You would think they would run out of targets.

Doesn't appear to be so.

NY Times has a story that 9 children under the age of 18 have been killed in these shootings since June 20th.

BLM should be all over this, but not a word. 

[Redondo]

They don't want to look in their own backyard.

Easier to criticize others.

Gianno Caldwell urges Chicago mayor to accept Trump's help after bloody weekend: Stop 'playing politics'

[Redondo]

She must be waiting for Obama. He was going to fix everything and change was the theme.

What exactly did he change in Chicago?

He is from there so don't go bringing up Trump.

Don't worry. Nobody who wants something fixed will ever bring up Trump

That seems low to me for a freedom celebrating weekend.  So progress?

[fan_since79]

It's really getting out of control there, and we're only halfway through the summer.

In Chicago, 1,901 people have been shot this year. That is already 550 more than 2019.

Yikes!

That's crazy. 

Yet they want to defund the police.

Go figure.

According to AOC it would look like a suburb if the police were de-funded. 

[fan_since79]

And in many cities they want to have social workers respond to domestic violence calls. These are sometimes the most dangerous situations that police have to handle. So yeah, send some liberal college graduate in social welfare out to chat with an enraged person. That will work just fine.

She set a new low for stupidest things said. Her lack of understanding cause and effect is incredible.

Two McAllen police officers die in ambush shooting 

I'm sure social workers would have fared better.  

Quote

According to Rodriguez, the officers answered a disturbance call in the vicinity of the 3500 block of Queta Street at about 3:30 p.m. Saturday, initially meeting two individuals who reported assaults occurring inside a nearby home.

When officers tried to enter the home, the alleged shooter, whom police identified as 23-year-old Audon Ignacio Camarillo, opened fire.

I’m sure they shot the officers because of income inequality, as AOC told us.

150 Homeland Security agents to be deployed in Chicago this weekend.

Trump is not fooling around. He said he's going to do something about all this escalating violence in big cities.

Might not make it that far. Side note, one of the pics was from a website called wheelchairsagainstguns.org haha

[Lhalo]

This picture has to be fake since NY/Illinois have strict gun control laws. Also they could never afford all those guns due to systemic racism. 

[Brandon]

Reminds me of when there was one of the mass shootings and Victor was up in arms about gun control and that taking away guns would stop this kind of thing.
