Bloody Weekend: At Least 21 Shot, 4 Dead (In Chicago, IL)

I posted the link from a forum so people could see reactions from folks living in the city.

I used to stay in Chicago... this hurts for real.

Oh well, chit happens, eh?

Chithappens...it would be best to post a link to the story. Posting links to other forums falls under the category of spam. Search for a link to the story and post it. But don't use other forums. Thanks.

I've got no idea what the hell is up with this city lately but this is starting to get ridiculous.

Hmmm, never done it before. My mistake. Link already up

i live on lake shore drive and the crime rate in chicago is going up even though the news and police never admit to anything

I guess what's odd is that not all of these murders have a link but that's the synergy over there.

How can you improve a city already on edge?

Why is it that people must resort to guns?

Well in Memphis, TN I knew this guy who won a one on one fight against some lame ass.

So the loser comes to his house 15 minutes afterwards and shoots him in the balls first and then in the head, of course killing him.

It is normally very petty stuff.

Now I will write a poem:

These shootings man, these shootings...
Life got you down?
These shootings...
Is your world upside-down?
These shootings...
When will it stop?
These shootings...
How many have to drop?
These shootings, these shootings...
How many more must fall until it all will stop?
These shootings.

Hi, I'm Tired Hiker. By the time you finished reading my poem, two people in the United States were the victims of gun violence. Please help make these shootings stop! Thank you.

-Mr. T. Hiker

Seen this on the news, I dont even wanna go downtown anymore
