More shooting of people in heavily gun-controlled Democrat-ran Chicago.

I am using the definition of at least four people killed to meet the definition of a “mass shooting”.
CHICAGO’S CRIME WAVE

Chicago apartment shooting leaves 4 dead at dinner table, 1 critically wounded by neighbor, police say​

By Stephen Sorace | Fox News

A Chicago man with “anger management issues” killed four of his neighbors as they ate dinner and critically wounded another in a shooting Saturday at an apartment complex on the city’s Northwest Side, police said.

The suspect, whose identity has yet to be released, was known to the victims, Chicago police said. The man was taken into custody and a weapon was recovered at the scene.

The shooting happened around 5:30 p.m. when the suspect, a 67-year-old retired construction worker, went into his second-floor neighbor’s apartment and killed a family of three men and a woman who were sitting at a table eating dinner, First Deputy Superintendent Anthony Riccio told the Chicago Sun-Times. . . .

No word yet on if the victims were defenseless here in Chicago as this occurred against them.

Somehow I don’t think this story will be front page news tomorrow. Not much political mileage.

Prayers out to all involved here.

You’re right. It won’t make much news at all, nor will there be much outrage.
 
Yeah dvdjs. That is pretty much what I got last night too with my search.

Not much for major network coverage (especially compared to more politically “rewarding” events for the left).

A little admittedly. But not much.

Does ANYONE here think the major networks are going to treat this event like say, the El Paso nightmare?

Network local affiliates are relatively meaningless.

Maybe they will.

Maybe you guys ARE seeing non-stop major network coverage right now (I haven’t bothered to look. I don’t even have a TV, and I haven’t checked the computer for today’s news yet).

Why don’t you readers here just flip through your TV channels now and see for yourself.

Check it out and see if you are getting the same kind of “wall-to-wall” coverage with this Chicago mass shooting you got with El Paso.
Or New Zealand.
Or Parkland.
Or a host of others that better fit into an anti-Second Amendment narrative “opportunity”.

Get back here and tell me if they are comparable in coverage.

Well, he looks like a white male so I expect reasonable coverage.
How would you know? The original article was quite careful not to name either the shooter or the victims, let alone post photos of either.

I searched for Chicago apartment shooting and saw multiple photos
 
Leftist media refuses to cover the shootings in “gun-free” zone Chicago because it doesn’t fit their narrative. Most mass shootings occur in “gun-free” zones, where the bad guys target soft, defenseless targets.

Does anyone really believe that arming the population of Chicago which I believe has a high proportion of gangs and gang related violence, is going to result in less shootings?

But nobody is talking about “arming the population”.

All I am talking about is the preservation of the Constitutional Right to bear arms for the law-abiding citizens for those that CHOOSE to exercise their rights.

There is no Bill of Rights for the Government to be armed. They can and should be.

But the protections are in place to protect the citizens.

It’s my opinion anyway, that Chicago (like Washington D.C.) has violated those rights.

To undo this Government abuse in the courts, takes many years and a lot of expense.

By the way.

I could ask you essentially the same question.

Does anyone really believe that DISarming (much of) the law-abiding population of Chicago, which I believe has a high proportion of good people too, is going to result in less shootings? Wait. We already have that, and it hasn’t.

Your response?

“quite a rambling non-sequitur”.

Look. I was responding to one of the women on the thread.

But I wanted to put this in the context of something else she said earlier.

Here it is (what she said earlier) . . .

Bold addition mine.

DIERM. Didn’t you read the thread? This was the background context of what I addressed.

There WAS a non-sequitur in that discussion. But it wasn’t from me.
