    From the article

    "..one of five people killed in Chicago over the weekend as the number of people shot in the city this year passed 1,000.

    Chicago has hit the somber milestone even sooner than the violent year of 2012, when the city saw 500 homicides for the first time since 2008. Shootings that year were up 11 percent. The city reached the 1,000 mark on June 6 in 2012. In 2013 it was on June 26 and last year it was on June 15.

    This year, Chicago passed the mark sometime late Thursday into early Friday morning, according to data collected and analyzed by the Chicago Tribune."

    -------------
    Chicago black on black violence is out of control. Kids being shot at 2AM, now why are kids out at 2AM? It's not a gun control issue as criminals could care less about gun laws it's a breakdown of society issue. This BS just seems to get worse and worse every year and sooner or later it going to reach critical mass.

    The only way you'll ever see a liberal response to this is if the thug on thug slayings get to a point where it impacts voting precinct numbers.

    And even then don't expect Obama and Sharpton to point the finger at their own kind.

    Nah, the only possible play liberalism has here is to trot out more gun control rhetoric.

    And that's why (most) Blacks will forever be a second class citizenry.

    The people they elect will never ever be interested in solving their problems, let alone talking about what they actually are, because then those people would realize it was their elected leaders that put them in this mess just to cash in on vote pandering.

    American slavery 2.0 brought to you be liberlism, "this time we make them want to be slaves".

    Too bad OP. You might have even had the basis for an excellent discussion here but when the kids start forming the "Hurr-Hurr" conservative circle jerk against liberals, you lost a good opportunity for some intelligent dialog.

    If violent gang members are killing each other, that's fine by me.

    Cities ran exclusively by libs have more poverty, drugs, violence, and shootings then anywhere else in the country.

    What's to discuss? Not enough Democrats winning elections in these cities? Too many Republicans stopping them at getting what they want in their city counsel legislation?

    What's the issue? Let's hear it...

    For starters, I didn't know the OP hired you to talk for him. Had I known that, I would have addressed my reply to you. I'll remember next time.

    The topic posted is about the number of shootings in Chicago. Nothing in the article and not even the OP mentioned anything about liberal or conservative.....which brings me back to my point about having "intelligent dialogue".... and I'll just leave it at that.

    I don't care who you address your reply to, I chose to address my reply to you by pointing out the undeniable fact that libs (by design) have inner city ghetto's just the way they like them (full of crime and dependency on the government)

    Nice gig if you can get elected to continue ruining peoples lives all while having them tricked into thinking you're helping them because they are all just innocent little victims.

    You want intelligent dialogue? Start looking at the obvious common denominator in poverty stricken cities.

    The problem with your assertion is that you are in fact ignoring critical demographics which are the very basis of the problem.

    It is fine by some cops too but the real problem is everybody else in those neighborhoods that would like to see the thugs gone.

    Chicago possess .8% of the nations population, yet accounts for 10% of the nations homicides.

    If gun control is effective, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

    Cut the bull(*)(*)(*)(*), and admit you all are demonstrably wrong.

    Chicago is a liberal filled city. Just like Ferguson, just like Baltimore. Do see the trend yet?

    Actually, I live in Chicago. Chicago is actually made up of two cities. One city is composed of downtown and the north side. I like to call this the "city proper". The other city is located south of "Chicago proper" and has small pockets of areas west and north west.

    This city is called "Chiraq". You might of heard of it.

    [​IMG]

    Cops, and tourist do not visit that area. The liberal politicians pander to that area for votes mostly during election time, but regular people usually leave that area alone. It has it's own culture and laws (aka "street justice"). Favorite music is called "gangster rap / hip hop". A favorite past time is called "blaming the white man and the police". It's call "Chiraq" because on certain weekends, more people have been killed in "Chiraq" than Iraq.

    Spike lee is making a movie about "Chiraq". Some people say he' tring to help "Chiraq". Others say, he just doing it to increase his wallet size. Oh, and most politicians that work and live in "Chiraq" - they are liberal.

    Indeed, the topic is the number of shootings in Chicago. Who is doing the shootings? Why? Who is setting the policies in the city and why is Chicago disproportionately effected in comparison to cities with different leadership? Are those topics you wish to discuss? Sounds as though keeping the policy makers out of the equation is nothing more than a tawdry attempt to deflect responsibility on the part of city leaders...

    "Undeniable fact". First show me a fact I cannot deny. Chicago is a corruption cesspool. Been there more than a few times. Prove that the corruption is "liberal."

    Or someone who is deliberately avoiding an intelligent dialog on the "breakdown of society issue".

    "Progressives" are fond of discussing and treating the symptoms (ex., gun violence) but not discussing and curing the disease (the Left's failed social engineering programs). When you've convinced yourself of your own intellectual and moral infallibility it's difficult, if not possible, to admit that you could possibly be wrong.

    You see, Change and Fundamental Transformation is for us, not them. ;)
