Slaughter in Gun Control Chicago Katie Pavlich Jun 17, 2013
Over the weekend in the gun control Capitol of the country, 46 people were shot in Chicago. More from the Chicago Tribune:
"Our son is dead! Oh Jesus!" the 57-year-old screamed, referring to her other son, Cortez, who was killed earlier that morning on Chicago's West Side. "Oh my God! Oh my God! We were just talking." At least 33 people were shot - six of them fatally - Saturday afternoon through Father's Day Sunday, stretching from 94th Street and Loomis Avenue on the South Side up to about North Avenue and North Pulaski Road on the Northwest Side, according to authorities. The youngest person who was killed during one of the bloodiest weekends in Chicago this year was 16. Shootings from Friday afternoon into Saturday left another 13 people shot, 1 fatally. The combined tally resulted in 46 people shot, and seven killed this weekend. Last year at about the same time, there were 53 people shot, nine fatally in one weekend.
The Chicago Police Department is attempting to spin the situation by citing that murder numbers are down in 2013, but it is important to point out murder rates "being down" is in comparison to 532 murders in 2012 and 425 in 2011.
