    Arh, but we are referring to reported interracial violence. Men don't report cases as often as women

    Notice how quickly the law enforcement speakers announced that it was a "random" shooting?

    Did anyone mention that the area represents the metro center of the wealthy Jewish population on the north shore?

    Did anyone mention what kind of weapon was used?

    This is probably going to amount to a "clean up" operation because it smells of a "cartel" related payback situation.
    The first clue is that the shooter dropped the weaponry.
    Typical of aftermarket hits because you can buy the weapons at dirt cheap prices. Happens in Chicago proper all the time.

    Maybe because guns are à hot political topic?
    I guess when the results of the politics actually desyroys life it is suddenly not a political issue.
    How convenient. Instead we get tears for the victims whom the state did sod all to protect.
    How many more really dead real people will it take?

    You have extremely strict gun laws in Illinois. Highland Park is no exception.

    If this had happened just 10 miles south within the city of Chicago, it would be included in a weekend death count but would never have made it to the national and international news desks.

    What if they never catch the Perp?
    Highland Park dropped the ball on security...
    All of the rooftops should have been off limits...

    Quit being a damn partisan vulture.

    The second amendment does not give anyone a right to unlawfully murder anyone.

    You don't even wait for the bodies to cool before you try to advance your partisan BS agenda

    Most of what you post doesn't need to be refuted. *two cents*

    In Chicago?
    One truly wonders if this was another instance of urban gang warfare.

    Not in Chicago until you people decided to start calling the mass shootings recently to fulfill your political agenda.

    Guns.

    Again.

    Once again our present laws and their level of enforcement proved insufficient to avert this tragedy. 6 are dead at this writing. 6 lives cut short that will never happen again. One organization which tries to keep track of mass shootings reports over 200 thus far this year.

    Guns.

    Again.

    Regards. Stay safe 'n well . . . 'n un-shot.

    The shooter is white. That's who's involved in the thread. Condemnation of him or no?

    The ability to try and blame this on Trump.

    Wow.

    The derangement knows no limits.
