    I was waiting for the stats to come out. If they generate numbers like that on the weekend I wonder how many for the whole week???

    Tonya Hunter, 51, a community activist in North Lawndale, was working on a freelance article about gun violence for the Chicago Defender just before the shooting occurred.

    She asked one man to explain the difference between the sound of a gunshot and a firecracker. Just then, the shots broke out, Hunter said.

    "He said, 'That's the difference,' " Hunter recalled.

    Oh ****.

    Any one else wondering with me, why this isn't a national news story? This level of violence? Some of the harshest gun restrictions? Repetitive black on black crime?

    Where is the outrage? Where's the compassion? Where is the defenders of strict gun control? Why wouldn't people in middle America want to know what is happening in the 3rd largest city in America?

    This is shameless! The corrupt media will advocate the wrongful prosecution of George Zimmerman, but look the other way on this?

    "yawn"

    No big deal, with no concealed carry we'll all be safer, right? Wait until the weather really starts getting hot, the numbers will "shoot" through the roof.

    If only Lake Michigan would surge and raise up 70ft we'd have clean and safe streets. Any wonder why families and corporations are running from the state?
