More useless news to the left. Another Violent Chicago weekend leaves 5 dead, nearly 50 injured

Five people were killed by gunfire and many more injured, including an 8-year-old girl who was shot at a barbecue, in 37 separate shooting episodes in Chicago over the weekend, police said.

A tally sent by police to Fox News on Monday said that in addition to the five dead, there were 47 people wounded in the gunfire from 6 p.m. on Friday to 11:59 p.m. on Sunday.

In a news conference on Monday afternoon Chicago, Mayor Lori Lightfoot sounded an oft-heard alarm: “We have way too many guns on the street.”

She said she just learned that the police have this year taken 6,954 illegal guns off the street, a 20 percent increase over the same period last year.

“We have too many incidents that are petty disputes that are getting solved by somebody fighting and we still are vexed by these large crowds that gather between 11 and 4 a.m. where people are outside enjoying the summer and unfortunately become the targets of people who want to create havoc in communities by shooting into large crowds.”

Should this be in current events? Not so sure. This is political, isn't it? Well, isn't it?

The racist left don't think so. I mean, obviously they don't. Nothing there to push along their narrative.
Poverty causes crime, and the giveaway to the rich GOP causes poverty especially among minorities. Great job, brainwashed functional moron.... Not to mention your ridiculous war on drugs or should I say the war on blacks....
Care to take a crack at explaining how lowering taxes on the wealthy causes poverty among minorities?

As for the "war on blacks" you refer to? That's Joe Biden's war, Franco! He wrote the Senate version of the Clinton Crime Bill that put more blacks in Federal Prisons than any other legislation ever passed in this country! Yet you voted for him ANYWAYS!
