The terrorist managed bumping the Friday total at six, so you can bet Saturday nay increase also. With that being said, there's still no press conference or marches on city hall and downstate. Are you still wondering why?

It's Still Madness: 2 wounded Friday in city shootings

Even with the low shooting rate there's still no press conference, no marches on city hall or downstate, just nothing. Are you still wondering why?

Meanwhile, our politicians and clergy continue ignoring the carnage. Are you honestly still wondering why? There's still no marches on city hall or downstate. Think about that.

Damn shame. Along with the two dead, five other people were wounded yesterday. With that being said, we now have over twenty (20) people shot since Sunday. I use Sunday as the beginning of the week others, consider Monday but it really doesn't matter with all the dead and wounded bodies piling up for one week. What does matter is the lack of action from political and religious leaders in this city, state, and country. Again I ask, where's the march on city hall and downstate?

Some people say the Sunday is the beginning of the week. Others say Monday. Debate it all you want, but the fact is so far 19 people have been shot in this short span of days with several deaths. Today is Wednesday who knows how many will feel a bullet tear through their skin. There is one thing that's certain. You can bet your politicians and clergy will not do a damn thing about it.

Meanwhile, our politicians and clergy continue ignoring the carnage. Where's the press conference? Where's the push for gun safety legislation? Where's the marches on city hall and down state? Where's the outrage?

That's fucked up for a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. But, what's really fucked up is the lack of leadership. That's right, another horrific weekend of gun violence and mass shootings and not one word from politicians and clergy. The republicans claim they are the party of personal responsibility, law and order, and protectors of the second amendment. The democrats state they are for public safety, equal rights for all, common sense gun legislation, and health care for all. But neither are will to do anything about this insane gun violence around the nation. Sure every time a certain group are impacted, they pass meaningless legislation. What they don't do is, go after the gun industry and states with weaker gun laws. Take Florida as an example. It's a hell hole for weak gun laws and the state had the audacity trying to sue a mayor for enacting gun safety legislation. That's totally fucked up.

Madness Continues: 14 shot — 1 killed — Saturday in Chicago

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/saturday-gun-violence-sept-22-2018/

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/weekend-gun-violence-sept-24-2018/



Damn shame. A total of 25 people shot in just two fucking days with one death. Yet, the really sad part in all of this is our politicians lack of leadership. Think about that for a few seconds. That's the problem when we keep electing the wrong people. After all the voting is done, we find out they are not beholden to us, but the corporations and NRA. The only time they will hold a press conference or pass legislation on gun safety, is when they sense retribution from us very same voters. Are you still wondering why?

If you think the first link is bad, check out the second one. It's not even noon and five people have already been shot today. It's not even noon and no press conference from the mayor, governor, local and state representatives. I don't know about you but, five people shot in one area constitutes a mass shooting. Where's the outrage? Not a fucking peep. Still wondering why?

I told you it spreads like cancer. The big question is, what are the politicians going to do about it? Last night there was a televised debate of the candidates running for governor. The moderator failed badly and never asked what these men would do about gun safety. The moderator just let them talk about how much money they spend and fucking toilets. Enjoy your weekend as that sinks in.

Isn't it odd the mayor hasn't held a press conference or confronted the the driver of the car where the baby and teen were wounded? This is one reason why our politicians should write legislation holding parents and relatives responsible when shit like this happens. The dude refuses cooperating with police. That is a giant red flag. He knows who fired the shots and I'm willing to bet, he's a "documented gang member".  Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 1 killed, 7 wounded in Chicago shootings Tuesday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/1-killed-7-wounded-in-tuesday-shootings/




It's getting to a point where you can't drive in this city without getting shot. And by the way, have you noticed no press conference from the mayor or governor? No press conference from the candidates running for mayor, governor, state attorney, and legislative seats. No press conference from any pastor, preacher, Rabi, imam, or monk. The fucking silence is ridiculous. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 2 killed, 4 wounded in shootings Monday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/2-killed-4-wounded-in-shootings-monday/




Well, what more can one say? The daily body count marches on as the politicians continue ignoring all of it. But, don't worry you will see them in-front of press cameras again when 80 or more get shot within a weeks time. That's one thing you can count on along with the bodies.

So much for those expressway marches. Meanwhile, our politicians continue ignoring all the carnage. Yep, business as usual with a big old nothing to see here folks. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 1 killed, 6 wounded in Saturday shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/1-killed-6-wounded-in-saturday-shootings/




The terrorist have been very busy this weekend. I wonder where all those able-bodied police officers on desk duty are? In the meantime, our politicians are continuing doing nothing as the bodies pile up. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 16 shot — 3 killed — Friday in city shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/friday-shootings-sept-14-2018/




What can I say? Those numbers are beyond appalling. Yet, here we are again, watching absolutely nothing being done, or addressed about it. Sure, you can go block an expressway or two but that doesn't bring legislation into law. You must protest at city hall and down state everyday. You also must vote for people that will actually do something about this insane carnage. Get it? Good, now go vote.

Kind of a good news bad news day Thursday. More shootings and death, that's the bad news. The good news is, a bunch of assholes got caught with drugs and guns. In the meantime, our politicians continue ignoring carnage and the marching pastor still hasn't taken his protest downtown or down state. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: Teen killed, 4 wounded in shootings Wednesday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/teen-killed-4-wounded-in-shootings-wednesday/



Meanwhile, our politicians and clergy continue ignoring the carnage. I'm still baffled why that pastor hasn't marched on city hall or lead a group down state? One would think if he wants effective change, he'd begin his protest there. I mean, come on dude kids are getting shot and killed. Where's your march in those neighborhoods?

Madness Continues: 12 wounded, including 5 teens, in Chicago shootings Tuesday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/12-wounded-including-5-teens-in-chicago-shootings-tuesday/



It's back to school time and so far 8 teenagers have been shot in two day. There were 3 teens shot Monday, and now 5 teens yesterday. I noticed the mayor hasn't held a press conference yet. One would think with 8 kids getting shot in two days would be a red flag but, since it's a Black and Brown "thing" no one really cares. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 7 people, including 3 teens, wounded in Monday shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/7-people-including-3-teens-wounded-in-monday-shootings/



Meanwhile, it's business as usual with our politicians as they continue ignoring the carnage. Three kids shot by a school, no press conference from the mayor, state representative, or alderman/woman from the district. No religious leader suggesting a march on city hall or the state capitol. Really makes you wonder where their priorities are doesn't it? Well, I'll tell you where they hold such priorities. It's in the money they rake in.

They don't give a shit about kids getting shot unless, it's one of theirs. They laughed at the marches because it didn't affect campaign donations. The only time they will do anything, is when the money dries up. Then, and only then will you see them jump into action. It's the money they rake in. Now, are you still wondering why?

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/weekend-gun-violence-chicago-sept-10-2018/





I don't know if the second link was counting just Saturday and Sunday, but it all boils down to simple insanity. Here's a question for our politicians in this state and law enforcement. Who is supplying these terrorist with guns? We know you must apply for a gun card before purchasing a weapon in this state. If you politicians are concerned about the safety of law enforcement officers, why isn't there a registry of all gun sales? There should be no debate about such a law that is needed like a gun registry, when you have a public and law enforcement safety issue of this magnitude. You politicians should focus on finding out who's getting these guns that have overflowed on our streets.

Madness Continues: 1 killed, 5 wounded in Saturday shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/1-killed-5-wounded-in-saturday-shootings/




This shit is so surreal. During the 60's and 70's (Yeah I Know I'm Old) you would watch the evening news and get nightly reports about the war in Vietnam and have similar body counts. We are 9 days into this month and the bodies keep piling up, along with the wounded. I know many people don't care because it's Black and Brown people killing and maiming each other but, innocent civilians get caught in the crossfire. While all this is going on, our politicians continue failing us by doing absolutely nothing. Just like Vietnam. Until, the people finally got fed up with it. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 5 shot — 1 killed — Friday in Chicago

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/shooting-roundup-friday-sept-7-2018/



8 days into the month and here we are again with more death and wounded. 8 days into the month and no press conference or legislation dealing with this insanity. 8 days into the month and still no march in the neighborhoods affected by this insanity. Make your vote count and finally elect people that will address this insanity.

Madness Continues: 3 wounded Thursday in city shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/thursday-city-shootings/




Correct me if I'm wrong but since Sunday, I've counted 4 dead and 29 people wounded so far, and it's not even Friday afternoon. That is just way too much violence and it is simple insanity as our politicians continue doing nothing but paying us lip service.

There is so much that can be done legislatively. Legalize marijuana and tax it like cigarettes and booze. Use those revenues for mental health services and job creation. Institute universal background checks. Close the fucking gun show loophole, and hold gun manufacturers and states with weaker gun laws accountable and subject to lawsuits. It's way past time our politicians start doing something, instead of nothing but paying us lip service.

Madness Continues: 1 killed, 7 wounded in shootings Wednesday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/1-killed-7-wounded-in-shootings-wednesday-2/




You realize we are only 6 days into this month and well over 25 people have been shot with double digit fatalities? 6 fucking days.

Meanwhile, our politicians continue ignoring all this carnage. At this pace, come 18 days that will be over 75 shot and God knows how many killed. Imagine if these terrorist pick up the pace like they did on their murderous weekend last month? This is serious and there has not been one press conference so far. 6 fucking days.

Madness Continues: 1 killed, 4 wounded by gunfire Tuesday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/1-killed-4-wounded-by-gunfire-tuesday/



So much for that march on an expressway. Oh, and by the way, there was a shooting on the Edens expressway. Where were you? In the meantime, our politicians and clergy continue ignoring this everyday carnage going on the streets of this city. Are you still wondering why?

Madness Continues: 6 wounded in city shootings Monday

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/6-wounded-in-city-shootings-monday/



Meanwhile, the march and politicians continue having no effect on the carnage that went on overnight. When you think about it, that police presence could have been better served in the communities where the shootings occurred. Maybe someone should bring that to the attention of that pastor.

Madness Continues: 10 shot — 2 killed — Sunday in shootings across Chicago

https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2018/09/02/extra-officers-out-in-force-for-the-holiday-weekend/

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/9-shot-2-killed-in-sunday-shootings-across-chicago/



Even with the extra cops out there these idiots still pulled off another bloody weekend. And if that wasn't bad enough, that pastor still wants to clog up an expressway instead of marching where the shootings take place.

Let's face it. This expressway thing, is just an exercise in futility. They kept shooting after the Dan Ryan. They kept shooting after Lake Shore Drive. They will keep shooting after the Kennedy march is done. I get your purpose for doing this. People are very much aware of the violence happening in Black and Brown neighborhoods. They just don't give a shit because, it isn't happening where they live. Until then, march where the shootings happen, not where they don't.

Madness Continues: 2 killed, 6 wounded Saturday in citywide shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/saturday-shootings-roundup-sept-2-2018/



Meanwhile, our politicians continue ignoring the carnage. It took one bloody weekend for the mayor to come out from under his bed. Now, with this steady drumbeat of bloodshed, he's nowhere to be found. Week after week, weekend after weekend, the wounded and bodies pile up with no end in sight. It's September and we already have 2 people dead and 6 people wounded from gunfire. It isn't even noon as I type this on a Sunday, and there has already been two more people shot.

Madness Continues: 9 shot — 2 fatally — Friday in city shootings

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/chicago-gun-violence-friday-shootings-aug-31/



Meanwhile, a pastor wants a march on an expressway instead of marching where the shootings happen. Think about that for a second. If you saturate the area where the shootings occur, they can't commit crimes because of the heavy police presence. It's all about priorities. Inconveniencing motorist in all honesty, doesn't bring sympathy for your cause. Let's be honest. Racist Whites don't care about Black and Brown people killing each other. As long as it is not happening where they live on a daily basis, they simply don't care. So, clogging up the expressway will only make them more madder and racist. If you really want to make an impact, go where the shootings happen.
