US streets were bathed in blood over Independence Day weekend with 142 killed in 379 separate shootings, with Chicago and Philadelphia among the locations worst-hit.

Chicago suffered the greatest bloodshed, with at least 92 shootings over the long weekend. That saw 16 killed and 76 injured.

National Guard soldier Chrys Carvajal, 19, is the only victim so-far named. He was shot while attending a house party after coming home to visit his family for the Independence Day celebrations.

'My brother. He was all of life. He had a bright future in front of him,' Carvajal's sister Jennifer Ramirez told ABC 7.

Ramirez told ABC 7 that her brother was gunned down in a drive-by shooting when he went outside to grab something. A motive is unclear.

Others who survived shootings in the Windy City included children as young as five and six, with others shot in the 12 to 30 age bracket, the Chicago Sun Times, reported.

Two cops were among the city's shooting victims. The unidentified officers were shot in the early hours of Monday while trying to disperse a crowd in the city's Washington Park.

They were rushed to hospital, and are expected to survive their injuries.

Philadelphia saw a total of 17 people shot over the weekend, with 21 injured, and seven killed.

Eleven people were shot, four died and another was stabbed during a six hour orgy of violence in Philadelphia during July 4 celebrations.

Six of those 11 shot were teenagers aged between 15 and 19.

The grim toll included a double murder where more than 100 shots rang out.

Shortly after 10:30pm on Sunday, more than 100 bullets ripped through a West Philadelphia barbeque, hitting 22-year-old Sincarr Johnson Jr. in the head, a 23-year-old man multiple times in the torso and a 16-year-old girl...

I have to think that dementia Jojo Cider, A Blinken and the FBI will attribute all 140 of these deaths to white supremacy. After all, why not?
 
Floyd riots sent message that chosen minority can act out violently when they feel like it
You libbies who are trying to unravel so many good and effective things have no idea what you are unleashing
 
LOL, Nice Try......
It’s no wonder KKK types are Democrat.
The KKK is White Supremacy.............
Southern Redneck, AKA, RWI's
Aryan Nations, Northern Rednecks that live in Idaho and E Oregon.
Political groups that support/active are (R)/Conservative based.

YEAH, but think of all the money we save by defunding the cops.HAHAHAHAHAHA!
I'm not a racist but I'm beginning to understand racists.
 
Clearly the answer is more guns. Madness.
No, that isnt the answer in Chicago. Chicago has the strictest gun laws in the nation.
Well, New York gun laws are just as strict. What the Democrats don't understand is that guns don't shoot themselves. To kill somebody, a live person has to hold the gun, load it, aim it, pull the trigger and hit the victim(usually more than once).

What cities save in defunding the policies they pay the citizens in lives lost to higher rates of senseless deaths. Take Chicago and Philly for example....

I WAS BEING SARCASTIC
 
Who cares. All that matters is that the party controls the White House and both houses of Congress. Democrats aren't going to be bothered over a bunch of dead black kids.
 
Clearly the answer is more guns. Madness.
No, that isnt the answer in Chicago. Chicago has the strictest gun laws in the nation.
Correct. If you extend that to a wider radius; you'd see less gun deaths. Like they have in other first world nations. More guns is never the answer to gun crime.
Youre going to need to explain your flawed logic. Why would you extend Chicagos problem to other places?
 
BUT...the flag is still there (lots--made in Bangladesh)

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?


On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
‘Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
