    With 90 Homicides, August Was Chicago’s Bloodiest Month In 20 Years


    CHICAGO (CBS) — A 24-year-old man was killed and a 23-year-old man was grazed by a bullet in a shooting in the West Lawn neighborhood late Wednesday night, capping off the most violent month in Chicago in 20 years.

    Chicago police said there were 90 homicides in August, and a total of 472 people shot in 384 separate attacks. The city has not had that many murders in one month since August 1996.

    Wonder when Black Lies Matter will hit the streets to protest this?

    Could be because all their gun laws are directed at denying law abiding citizens their 2nd amendment rights. Nothing stops the criminal element from arming themselves.

    When white people hit the streets to protest all the rapes they are committing.:SneakyIn 2013, whites led all other groups in aggravated assault, larceny-theft, arson, weapons-carrying, and vandalism. When it comes to sexual assault, whites take the forcible rape cake. They are also more likely to kill children, the elderly, family members, their significant others, and even themselves! They commit more sex-related crimes, gang related crimes, and are more likely to kill at their places of employment.

    Not enough people are talking about the crime plaguing the white community. We need to spread the word, hold protests and demonstrations that call attention to this growing matter. Because, after all—-white lives matter, too.

    White people aren't blaming black people for systematically killing them. Sooooo.....any stats about white people, true, false or otherwise is irrelevant to the point. Further, Chicago has some of the toughest gun control laws in the country yet it remains one of the bloodiest cities in the country. Thereby proving these gun control laws are useless. And they have nothing to do with white crime. some folks need to learn to stay on topic.

    The fact that that was necessary to explain is most likely a commentary on our public school system.

    Police seem to be helpless. It's Dodge City and there is no Wyatt Earp. It doesn't help that the city government is thoroughly corrupt. Criminals see that as an opportunity.

    Ahh you're just mad that yall don't get to make your one sided challenges without anyone showing why the statements are so stupid.

    And if I recall correctly, it was on this board that some of you were saying that black on white crime was so bad.

    So the stats about white people are very relevant whether or not YOU want them to be. So again, BLM will hit the streets in protest to what's going on in Chicago the minute white people hit the streets in protest of all their rape and aggravated assault and killing born children, the elderly, family members, their significant others, and even themselves! And let's again not forget the sex-related crimes, gang related crimes, and them killing themselves at their places of employment.

    Save your attempts to obfuscate for the DT uneducated.

    Guess what, whites are aware that some
    white people commit crimes. That is why most of them support the police. You know, and don't riot when the police actually have to use force.

    Chicago is not a place to live these days sadly. Feel sorry for those that have to live with that violence.

    Hillary will ask the same question if elected CPOTUS and then answer it with 'See? Gun laws just don't work, so we are banning ownership of all firearms for all citizens of the U.S.'
