Here's a mass shooting that probably won't elicit calls for more gun control.
Chicago Sun Times: (http://www.suntimes.com/news/crime/22678686-418/10-shot-in-back-of-the-yards-park.html)
Thirteen people were shot - including a 3-year-old boy - Thursday night at a South Side park when two gunmen opened fire on a group gathered at a basketball court in the Back of the Yards neighborhood.The Washington Post has a later report that says 2 others besides the child were critically wounded.
As bullets began to fly about 10:15 p.m., the group scattered, taking cover wherever they could at Cornell Square Park, police and witnesses said.
Julian Harris, 22, said his 3-year-old nephew, Deonta "Tay-man" Howard, was shot in the face.
Deonta was taken in critical condition to Mount Sinai Hospital, according to Fire Media Affairs.
Harris said dreadlocked gunmen in a gray sedan fired at him at the corner of Wood and 51st before turning north on Wood and shooting up the park. According to other witnesses, two gunman got out of the car and began shooting.
Police said the shooting was gang-related, but they could not describe how the shooting occurred.
"They hit the light pole next to me but I ducked down and ran into the house," Harris said. "They've been coming round here looking for people to shoot every night - just gang-banging stuff. It's what they do."
The young boy's aunt, Lavada Hardeman, 18, said her brother, was killed on Labor Day.
"I can't catch a break," Hardeman said.
The 3-year-old's uncle, Jerome "J Money" Wood, a rapper who was affiliated with Def Jam artist Durk "Lil Durk" Banks, was shot in the head and died on Sept. 2 in the 6600 block of South Rhodes in the Woodlawn neighborhood.
Corey Brooks, pastor of New Beginnings Church on the South Side presided over Wood's funeral. He said he was called early Friday to again comfort the family at the hospital.
"They're frustrated, upset and hurt and disappointed that this is just happening over and over and over in our community," Brooks said.

Blog: 13 shot at Chicago basketball court; 3 year old critical
I wonder if Obama or any of his flunkies will have anything to say about this mass shooting in Chicago? Will Sen. Feinstein go through the same spiel about gun control? Will they keep quiet because this is a black on black crime?
Why do airplane crashes make the news, but car crashes don't?
Answer: Because car crashes happen all the time.
Why do shootings at schools and military installations make the news, but gang shootings don't?
Answer, I have no idea. Must be racism or something. I'm sure it's Obama's fault.

Was the shooter white ? Was there a Tea Party connection ? How scary looking was the AR-15 ?
Well you do have a point here. 13 is the same number killed in the Navy yard shooting. Why isn't this a national story?
I notice that he doesn't bother to offer any solution to this never-ending violence so my guess is that he doesn't have one and is just trying to spread a little more hate and fear with his post.
I wonder if Wehrwolfen has a particular point to make with this post, or if it's just a little more of his 'I hate Obama hate and fear bull ****'.

The OP poined out a huge immediate problem and negatively characterized the single person in the US who could do something about the problem, but chooses to not even notice it.
Your post ignores the problem completely and attacks the OP who poined out the problem.
That is mindless, problematic posting that results in continuation of senseless deaths and demands a cessation of further discussion of the problem. Mindless hackery actually. One could only hope for more maturity and responsibility in the future.
You think one person can solve a problem that existed for generations?
you first understand what makes people want to join a gang in the first place. why event inspired the creation of gang's

NO! Do not EVER attempt to lead others into analyzing and so nebulously looking at a problem that you render it completely incapable of resolution.

What is that? Random words linked together in an attempt to appear profound?
That looks like fun..Let me try a couple.
The damage offsets the apparatus.
The argument formulates the substantial estimate.
Hey, that's fun! Pseudo intellectual jargon and gibberish...
Ok.You like "resolution"?..Tell us how to resolve the problem.
Well you do have a point here. 13 is the same number killed in the Navy
yard shooting. Why isn't this a national story?

That is what they always say about those who point out the plain truth.Yeah, I know. I'm really being a scumbag today.
hahahaha..you're funny!...I'm not "frightened" by "big words"..LMAO...I recognize jargon when I see it and it doesn't "confuse" or "frustrate me". It amuses me..you flatter yourself...Don't let "Big words" frighten you. It only requires the simplist of intellects to understand a demand to focus on resolution rather than endless bureaucratic overanalysis. Try it again and perhaps your posts will evidence less confusion and frustration.
lowdown did just that in the above post :tongue4:How would you "resolve" the crime problems we've been discussing.
Navy yards don't typically experience this much violence every weekend.
I think the distinction is pretty apparent between the two.
