About that second link. I get the fact police are asking for the "publics help" but, let's start with the parents that just let there kids go unchecked. Get this. "A planned fight". All those involved didn't bother informing parents nor police. Now, you have two dead because of your cowardice. All those involved are responsible for these deaths.

The last link is a holy shit moment. I implore you to hit the link and look at the weapons, cash, and tools they used. How in the hell did they get those weapons? Will the prosecutors and police interview the owners of those "stolen weapons"? Will they track down the straw buyer? Even though that kid is 18, there's no way in hell he had a legal gun card. Also, correct me if I'm wrong. Assault weapons, along with high-capacity magazines are banned in this state? Throw the fucking book at them.

What are you going to do about it? We all know the solutions that will reduce such numbers. Yet, there isn't anyone willing to push forward. Odd, isn't it?

Take a day off and all hell breaks loose. You must be pretty dumb to get into a fight with an armed security guard. I'm out.

Madness Continues: Student kills nine in Turkey's second school shooting in two days

What the fuck is going on with the country of Turkey? Two school shootings in two days? I'm going to throw this out there. If there's a third, the shit was planned at the expense of innocent kids.

A school shooting in Turkey? How often does that happen? It's a damn shame the USA leads the world for school shootings. Now, other nations are doing it, and they have stricter gun laws than we do. Talk about being a fucked up role model for other nations. 

Madness Continues: Caught on camera: Shooting in Irving Park neighborhood leaves three wounded

https://wgntv.com/news/chicagocrime/3-men-injured-1-critically-in-overnight-shooting-in-irving-park-neighborhood-chicago-police-say/ 

 

 

 

 

From the article:  "Police say the three men in their 30s were standing outside near West Irving Park Road and North Richmond Street, in the Irving Park neighborhood, around 2:45 a.m. Sunday when an unknown female opened fire on them".

What did those three do to that lady? Was the gun legally obtained? Did she know them or not? Was it a drug deal gone bad or sexual harassment? Damn near 3 in the morning and just standing around? That's not a job but illegal activity.  

Madness Continues: One dead and several injured after mass shooting at Chick-fil-A in New Jersey

Under normal circumstances I'd start this off with either a Holy Shit!, Jesus Christ, or Damn! But, as you can see by the links above, this is a trifecta. Imagine the headlines in your very own local news sites/papers? I'm out.

Madness Continues: Teen, 2 men shot after shots fired into crowd on Chicago's South Side

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/cta-bus-hit-bullets-bronzeville-king-drive/ 

 

 

I get up each morning so I can catch a little bit of news, but my main focus is watching the weather. It has changed drastically, but these evil people with guns and knives haven't. The last link was captured on camera along with the super-stupid suspect. How much does anyone wish to bet he's a repeat offender? Oh well, try and enjoy your weekend. 

Madness Continues: 3 wounded in Joliet shooting

The last link is another tale of epic parenting failure. The only good news is this stupid teen wasn't shot to death by police. Your kids are not your fucking friends. They are your kids for life even when they become adults. Parents are teachers for life until the time they pass on. Yes, we adults are also known for doing stupid shit when we were young. But, we learned quick about our fuck-up. Our parents broke out a belt, switch, or extension cord. Let that sink when your dumb-ass kid forces a school lockdown. Beat that ass because the cops will thank you for it and not arrest you.

https://chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2026/04/08/south-shore-shooting-79th 

 

 

Meanwhile, with all this shit going on there's still zero outrage from religious leaders of all faiths and their respective flocks. No mass protest of any kind at city halls, county boards, and state legislatures across the nation. Odd, isn't it? 

Madness Continues: Boy, 16, gunned down outside his South Shore school during drive-by

https://wgntv.com/will-county/felony-charges-filed-against-will-county-man-accused-of-possession-of-child-sex-abuse-material/ 

 

 

Shit! This happened when I took a day off. Simply because there were no shootings statewide yesterday. There were car crashes, but they appear to happen daily. Oddly, there's still no outrage from the people in power. 

Madness Continues: Man shoots, kills intruder who charges at him in home in Chicago's South Deering community, police say

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/man-shoots-kills-intruder-chicago-south-deering/ 

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/2-street-takeovers-marquette-park-south-loop/ 

 

 

 

If my memory serves me correct, the last time these idiots did a "street takeover" people got shot. I just can't believe parents are that clueless about what their idiot kids are doing when they leave the house. They only find out later when these idiot shits are arrested or shot. That old saying is correct. "You can't fix stupid".  

Madness Continues: 2 hospitalized after shooting on Bishop Ford Freeway on Chicago's Far South Side

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/chicago-weekend-shootings-april-3-to-6/ 

 

 

Well, what do you know, more shootings. Take notice of the lack of outrage also. Not a peep from religious leaders of all faiths. Not a sound from elected officials of both parties. Just silence from all. Odd, isn't it? 

Madness Continues: Man injured after shooters open fire from two cars in Garfield Park

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/garfield-park-shooting-washtenaw/ 

https://wgntv.com/news/kentucky-sheriffs-deputy-wounded-in-shooting-identified-as-retired-chicago-police-officer/ 

 

 

 

That first link can't be a random shooting. Two cars? Why would a person sit in a parked car at that time of the morning? Normal people are asleep or working a night shift at 2 in the morning. This shooting can only be targeted. Yet, if they needed two cars to kill this person and failed, they must be some sorry-ass gang members.

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/man-shot-killed-while-inside-englewood-gas-station/ 

 

 

I might as well call the third link attack of the nerds with guns. Armed robbery for trading cards is a new one in my book. They say never assume but, this person doesn't get laid. As for the rest, we can take it none of these evil assholes got the pastors memo of putting the guns down. When you shoot kids your life is pure evil.

The second link should be titled "how to embarrass your parents". Now, the parents have to cough up bail money and find out how in the fuck did their dumb-ass daughter get a firearm? If it were me, I'd let her stay in jail and implore the judge to refuse bail. I really don't give a shit if this is her first offense. What she did is beyond stupid and an embarrassment to her parents. Now, they have to pay for her gross stupidity. Lastly, for the rest of the parents that had dumb-ass kids involved in this act of stupidity, crack down on your delinquents. Discipline the shit out of them so you don't have to cough up bail money.
