At least 21 individuals were shot, two fatally, during a 14-hour time period on Monday in gun-controlled Chicago.

The wounded included children as young as 11 years old.

The Chicago Tribune reports that the 11-year-old was ?shot while walking to the store? and a 13-year-old was shot as bullets sprayed in another incident, killing one man and wounding two more. Two other individuals under the age of 18 were also shot during the 14 hours of violence.

Six individuals were wounded in another shooting where the gunman or gunmen simply opened fire, and four were wounded when a 19-year-old gunman opened fire ?outside in the 12300 block of South Yale Avenue in West Pullman around 10:50 p.m.? Someone returned fire on the 19-year-old, fatally wounding him with a shot to the chest.

In another incident, a 46-year-old man was sitting in a car when the passenger became embroiled in an argument with another party. Shots rang out and the 46-year-old was shot seven times in the chest, killing him.

On June 5, 2018, Breitbart News reported that over 1,000 people had been shot in gun-controlled Chicago year-to-date. Thirty-eight individuals were shot, eight fatally, over Memorial Day Weekend alone, yet the left?s solution to the failure of gun control has been to push for more gun control.

    Boy, facts are inconvenient for the leftists. But we need to remember, when the left pushes gun control, it's more about control than guns.

    They cant be stupid enough to think gun control is actually working somewhere.

    They need a marksmanship program; 21 shot and only 2 killed.

    If the YaHoo mayor was more interested in saving lives instead of upsetting the "folks" vote by advancing police pressure in those neighbor hoods things would be much different[xx(]

    my take more injured = more money trips to the ER doctors and rehab
    dead = cheap burial
    and really very few care about black on black crime or black on white its so common and not news worthy or anything to pull money from
    in a real world every Monday the national news would report the "mass shootings" in the big cities ,, but then it would prove gun laws do not work

    Such is always the case with leftist DEMOCRATs. These people are absolutely insane. Their answer for poverty is more welfare. Their answer for their failing education is more taxes. Gun violence; more gun control and so on.

    Even worse, these people want to replace our constitutional republic with an big governed s o Cialis t state. So----ialsm has failed everywhere it has been enacted.. yet these people are serious in their quest.

    We are headed for uncertain and dangerous times if these people gain control.

    I hate to say there is SOME truth in The Turner Diary but Chicago is the perfect example.

    It's a vile book but Chicago is it.

    My hometown went from open doors in the early 60's to bars on every window by 1980.

    All because of demonrats.

    Leftist rule example Chicago. Gun control equals un-control.

    The liberal reasoning would be that gun control in Chicago would work if everyone had the same laws as the city.
    I used to recruit for the NRA until they sold us down the river (again!) in Heller v. DC. See my auctions (if any) under username henryreilly
