Our gun crime problem is a direct result from the policies of the democrat party......there is no doubt about this, and this story is just one of thousands in the city of Chicago...a city under total control of the democrat party since the 1930s.......
The mass shooting, Brown said, was part of a weeks-long gang war fueled by a high-ranking gang member who was on a $1,000 bond for a felony gun case that he picked up just four days after being released from federal prison.
Then, in a highly unusual move, Brown named the man he believed was driving the violence: Sergio Barron.

As it turns out, Brown didn’t have all of his facts straight. Barron did, in fact, get charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm in March. He was arrested four days after completing state parole for an aggravated assault case, not four days after being paroled from federal prison.
In the aggravated assault matter, Barron received an eight-year sentence in 2017 for aggravated discharge of a firearm and aggravated assault of a police officer, prosecutors said at his March bail hearing. The charges stemmed from a case in which he allegedly fired a gun into an occupied car and then pointed the weapon at responding police officers.

After hearing the allegations and incorrect information that Barron had been on federal parole for just four days, Judge Maryam Ahmad told Barron he could go home by posting a 10% bail deposit of $1,000.
“Our police officers did their job,” Brown said in May, speaking about the March gun case. “They took a gun off the street [from] a felon who had a violent history. That felon got a cash bond.”
“The risk assessment on violent offenders by our judges needs to get better,” Brown continued.

March gun case
Barron was in court on March 24 because police allegedly found a loaded and stolen handgun in his car when they responded to a ShotSpotter alert in the 4800 block of South Loomis — a block from where the May mass shooting occurred. Prosecutors said cops saw Barron recklessly reversing down the street when they arrived. After police found the gun between his driver’s seat and center console, Barron admitted to having the gun for personal protection, according to prosecutors.After hearing the allegations and incorrect information that Barron had been on federal parole for just four days, Judge Maryam Ahmad told Barron he could go home by posting a 10% bail deposit of $1,000.
