Chicago: Over 2,200 Shooting Victims During Last 12 Months

Are you American?
If not, **** off about our second Amendment.
If you didn't comprehend my other comment, that is on you.

Are you American?
If so, **** off about the second Amendment.
If you don't comprehend what an AMENDMENT is, that is on you.

Let me take a guess, you don't know what an Amendment is. Am I right or am I right? That's what I thought .... I am right.

I would have to wonder what the problem with the city having people shot 4 or 5 different times. Do people need better guns or shooting practice.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Yes. It's been said often enough: "It's not the gun but the person pulling the trigger who commits murder by the weapon itself." I can see the logic in that and by the same token it proves that Americans (of all the people of the world) should not be allowed access to firearms. So, "Ban firearms" makes sense.

More than 450,000,000 firearms in the US
About 43,000 firearm related deaths in the US.
99.99044% of the firearms in the US are not used to kill someone.

-How does this prove Americans should not be allowed access to firearms?
-How does this demonstrate banning firearms "makes sense"?
-How do you plan to repeal the 2nd Amendment?

Chicago's history includes periods of intense violence, including organized crime during the Prohibition era and significant gang activity and racial tensions in the latter half of the 20th century. While violent crime rates have fluctuated, with some recent decreases, the city has faced persistent challenges with gun violence and its impact on specific communities.

Here's a more detailed look:
1. Early History (19th Century):

• Early Perceptions:
  Chicago, even in its early years, was perceived as a city with a criminal element, with stories of theft, violence, and vice filling newspapers.
  
  
• Formalization of Crime:
  By the late 1800s, organized crime began to take root, with street gangs controlling various territories and engaging in illegal activities like gambling and prostitution.

2. Prohibition Era (1920s):

• Rise of Organized Crime:
  .
  The prohibition of alcohol created lucrative opportunities for organized crime, leading to the Chicago Outfit and the Beer Wars, a period of intense gang violence.
• Al Capone's Reign:
  .
  Al Capone rose to prominence during this time, controlling various rackets and engaging in violence to maintain his power.

3. Post-WWII Era:

• Gangs and Turf Wars:
  The post-war period saw a significant rise in gang activity, with increased violence as different gangs fought for control of territories and drug markets.
  
  
• Racial Tensions and Riots:
  The city also experienced racial tensions and riots, particularly in the 1960s, fueled by issues of segregation, housing, and police brutality.

4. Modern Era:

• Fluctuating Crime Rates:
  Chicago's homicide rate has seen significant fluctuations, with peaks in the early 1970s and early 1990s, followed by a decline in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
  
  
• Gun Violence Crisis:
  More recently, the city has faced a crisis of gun violence, with a disproportionate impact on Black communities and vulnerable neighborhoods.
  
  
• "The Great Crime Decline":
  While the US has seen a general decline in crime, Chicago has experienced a more complex pattern, with some indicators showing recent declines while others remain concerning.
  
  
• Specific Cases:
  The city's history is punctuated by infamous crime cases, including those involving Al Capone, John Wayne Gacy, and Leopold and Loeb.

5. Addressing Violence:

• Public Safety Initiatives:
  Chicago has implemented various public safety initiatives, including community-based programs and law enforcement strategies, to address violence.
  
  
• Violence Reduction Dashboard:
  The city uses a "Violence Reduction Dashboard" to track and analyze violence trends and inform its comprehensive violence reduction plan.
  
  
• Continued Challenges:
  Despite efforts to reduce violence, Chicago continues to grapple with the impact of gun violence, particularly in certain neighborhoods, and the need for continued focus on community safety.

Lots of words. It’s only words. Did you even glance thru 10% of it? Glittering Generalities.

"Chicago: Over 2,200 Shooting Victims During Last 12 Months
ABC 7 studied figures from the Chicago Police Department and found “the number of shooting victims in the past 12 months stands at 2,225.”

Breitbart News reported at least 55 people were shot in Chicago over the Fourth of July weekend, and six of those shooting victims succumbed to their wounds.

During a discussion on Our Chicago, One Aim Illinois director Yolanda Androzzo said, “We need more investments in community violence intervention programming.”"

Why are these Democrats shooting each other so much? Chicago's Democrat mayors and prosecutors are abject failures.
But, as long as the residents keep voting for radical leftist Democrats it will only grow worse.

The left's black population control program is going very well. Hasn't changed since 1860, just the way the DemoKKKrats want it.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Gun control laws have massively failed

 

[M14 Shooter]

Gun control laws have massively failed

They're meant to - "this just means we need more laws".

 

[leftwinger]

If money to be made? Big GOVT won’t stop it. But they will create DEPTs and spend trillions pretending.
******

Final time: Heroin,Cocaine & Fentynal are “banned”. Yet pour into the USA by pounds to tons. Criminals still get drugs and sell drugs. Americans even use banned drugs in public.

The same thing would happen with guns. No way for innocents to fight back if unarmed and only bad guys have guns. Areas with a “BAN” on guns have highest gun crime.

How does this prove Americans should not be allowed access to firearms?

Well .......

About 43,000 firearm related deaths in the US.

... that's how.

 

[Edgetho]

Tragic news for the city in which I was born. I believe the Dems are mostly to blame for this. We can only hope things get better for a once great city.

Two Thousand? That's just God taking out the garbage.

Build walls around dimocrap shitholes like New Yawk Shitty, Chicago, LA, etc. Shoot those trying to escape.

More Breitbart BS. Republicans live in Chicago, too.

Doubtless those MAGA-cap guys that attacked Jussie the black *** that are shooting people.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Well .......
... that's how.

So... you got nothing, and you know it.
Good to see some things never change.

Sure is a good thing that guns are so highly regulated in Chicago.

You know, if they weren’t, Chicago could get dangerous.

Nothing? You admitted 43,000 firearm related deaths in the US ..... and you call that "nothing". Glad to see you never change. Just keep shooting. I enjoy reading about your mass murdering and shoot-em'-ups at the shopping malls & schools & road rages & post offices. And good thing you have a gun - you wouldn't want someone to steal your garden hose or trepasses on your lawn! It's much better to kill them!

 

[Edgetho]

Your reasoning is absurd. Should we ban motor vehicles to stop drunk drivers?

Maybe we should pass a law that requires all women to dress in burlap sacks, disallow the use of any make-up and forbid them from bathing in order to prevent rape.

Or, we could just castrate all male babies when they're born. That would end rape, right thar. betcha

dimocrap scum be so ******* smart, I can hardly stand it.

They shouldn't be allowed in civilized society. They're just too ******* stupid. I'm talking drool cup, mouth-breathing, booger-eating stoopid.

ALL of them

So, why are ICE agents scared of Chicago?
Why not send Botox Barbie in there with her M-4, and go wild?

Oh' wait...................

 

[M14 Shooter]

Nothing?

Yes. Nothing.
Zip. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
You believe the misuse of 0.00956% of firearms justifies banning the remainder
That is, at best, mindless nonsense.

Troll better.

About half of those are suicides. Not all of them can be blamed on inner-city thugs.

What dimocrap scum refuse to do, because they're lying scum, is separate out the Suicides.

More than 60% of Gun Deaths in the US each year are by Suicide. A grade-school level internet search will tell you that I'm right. Like I need proof

dimocrap FILTH omit that fact. Mostly because -- dimocraps are lying scum.

Over 600 people each year are killed by LEO's. Come on, guys! Step it up!!

And the average number of Self Defense Gun Uses (DGU) each year is around 1,800,000. Yes, Virginia, One Million Eight Hundred Thousand.

Justifiable Homicide stats place between 400 - 500 dead each year.

And there you have it, people.

This is reason number 1, Numero Uno, #1 why you can't talk to dimocrap scum about -- Anything.

They lie. dimocrap scum lie when the truth would work just as well. I might be with them on restricting the use and ownership of certain weapons by certain people under certain circumstances.

But you can't talk to dimocrap scum about anything. Two seconds into the conversation they start lying.

dimocraps are lying scum. If you haven't realized it by now, we're on our own. dimocrap scum aren't serious about improving life in this country for anybody other than themselves. And they invaraibly **** even that up.

We're on our, people. Trying to include dimocrap scum in any conversation about what's good for America is pointless

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Maybe we should pass a law that requires all women to dress in burlap sacks, disallow the use of any make-up and forbid them from bathing in order to prevent rape.

What about men, having some self control?

Or, we could just castrate all male babies when they're born. That would end rape, right thar. betcha

Epstein and Trump would be reasons #1 and #2 for that.

dimocrap scum be so ******* smart, I can hardly stand it.

Your dear leader proves Trump and his cult are.

They shouldn't be allowed in civilized society. They're just too ******* stupid. I'm talking drool cup, mouth-breathing, booger-eating stoopid.
