Amid the horror over mass shootings in Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas over the weekend, violence in another American city largely went unnoticed in the national news media.
At least seven people were killed and 46 wounded in mass shootings across Chicago over the weekend, according to authorities.
There were two mass shootings in one night in Chicago's Lawndale neighborhood on the West Side. The casualties overran a local hospital to such a degree that it reportedly stopped accepting new patients for a time.
Rampant violence in Chicago routine and often escapes mention on the national news.
According to CBS 2 in Chicago, a partial list of victims includes:
A 21-year-old man shot in the groin;
A 25-year-old woman shot in the arm and leg;
A 20-year-old man shot in the right side;

It is important in chicago to mention the race it would help?
We hear so much about the mass shootings, White Supremacists, etc. because it suits the political agenda of the Left. But the above is just another weekend in Chicago which has strict gun control laws. I used to live in Chicago. You know why you won't hear about what goes on there? Because most of it, just about all of it, takes place in black neighborhoods. It's blacks shooting blacks. And anybody who even dares mention that fact is immediately attacked as a 'racist'. The Left hates and fears all facts which contradict their agenda and they set 'attack dogs' loose on anyone who does not go along.
There exists in the USA an object made mostly of metal which causes the death of over 100 people every day. Statistical analysis by private think tanks, government studies, and a group of mothers, all agree that the main cause of over 100 deaths is attributable to the hunk of metal which is the subject of this writing. Hospital ERs throughout the USA are facing significant cost increases as a direct result of this evil piece of metal. Police officers frequently die when coming in contact with this dangerous metallic object. Rising taxes and astounding financial strain to the economies of the world are attributed to the nefarious piece of steel I discuss here. All the deaths and exponential injuries and mental illnesses caused by this sordid assembly of manufactured parts, would seemingly create the necessary components for a civil rebellion and ban of the object. But no. People return to their habits like a dog who returns to his own vomit. The automobile has never received the appropriate credit for the death it causes. Do you really want to reduce unnecessary deaths in America. Slow down and stop tailgating.
