11 Shot Dead, 63 Wounded In Chicago Over The Weekend. Press Yawns

[cc]

It was a beautiful summer weekend in Chicago. The city's premiere summer music event -- "Lollapalooza" -- went off without a hitch, despite soaring temps and oppressive humidity.



There were the usual block parties, church socials, neighborhood bake sales...



And 11 people were gunned down in the streets, with 63 more wounded.



But because this explosion of blood wasn't committed by one or two crazed white supremacists or racists, you probably didn't even hear about it. That's because the shootings in Chicago -- a city that votes 70% Democratic, is run by Democrats from top to bottom -- couldn't be blamed on Donald Trump, Republicans, or conservatives.



Does it really matter that much whether one crazy man with a gun shoots up a Walmart or vicious gang-bangers spray gunfire in densely populated neighborhoods?



Why, yes. Yes, it does.



Democratic politicians find no political advantage in weaponizing the victims of everyday street violence in a Democratic town.



So Chicago's dead are stepped over by national media and national Democrats on the way to 2020

White guy shoots up far less people in El Paso .. ""24/7 Trump is white supremacist ""



Now,  back to 11 dead, 63 wounded in one weekend in a major, supposedly civilized American city, run by Democrats, where blood is routinely spilled in buckets by mostly black murderers killing mostly black victims



 that we can't talk about because the perpetrators aren't white nationalist supporters of Trump.



Got that? ...... Now go back to sleep.

Democrats are more than a little sensitive about Chicago.

It was cloudy and chilly today..



I cleaned the house, went grocery shopping and looked for a puppy online..



My dog died and I want to get another one.

If the comments I've read on this forum regarding gun control are any guide, some in this forum don't regard gang bangers as worthy of concern when it comes to gun related deaths in the US. They categorise them as outside the American community.

No, that's the American media that does that.

She was twelve and had a number of health problems..



I knew she was dying for quite a while, but it still broke my heart when she died..



I miss her so much and I want to get another dog soon.
