#2 I'm just waiting for the elevated commuter trains to become soft rush hour targets above the hazardous 'flyover' districts.

#4 C'mon folks, it's 795 plus 36 "death investigations"

As has been noted repeatedly at the Burg. Feel free to peruse the archives. 'Jackass' isn't just a term of affection here.

Yes, 795 with 36 possibles - and apparently the majority confined to certain geographic and demographic parameters.

Well, it keeps the boodle flowing.

#6 The Zerohedge comments on this story are along the lines of 'Where can we donate extra ammo?'

#7 Somebody asked yesterday what is the point of gun control in Chicago. Obviously it's not helping with the shootings and murders. But as long as the shooters and murderers are "confined to certain geographic and demographic parameters" Emanuel and his kind don't care. Gun control is for the control of law abiding, legal citizens.

#8 Favorite soundbite from the article: " ... Illinois lax gun laws..."

#9 Found a link to Chicago F/R through Pappy's link, thought it would be interesting to listen to a major urban w/port dispatch system - about as far away from what I am used to as one can get without going international.

Little ways in, something like, "Do we have a unit available for a reported shooting?"

#10 Rahm keeps the murders within the plantation and he doesn't care.

#11 There is no gun control in Chicago, not where it counts. They only want more restrictions on law abiding citizens.

Meanwhile, criminals, including repeat felons who use guns during a crime, are either not charged with that offense or get off lightly with early release.

Just enforce the existing law, and the killings will diminish very quickly. That's what Trump should propose and monitor.

#12 I think gun control (taking guns away from people) in Chicago would be a great idea.

If we start with Rahm's bodyguards.
