At risk of being slammed for pure racism, amid a duo of terrible mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, we thought it noteworthy that a somewhat "normal" weekend of death and mayhem in Chicago barely even warranted a mention in mainstream media headlines.

As HeyJackass.com reports (the most definitive tracker of Chicago's 'values'), there has been 50 shootings so far in August (yes it's the 4th of the month):

Shot & Killed: 4

Shot & Wounded: 46

This weekend has seen 4 killed and 38 wounded, but as the chart below shows, this is actually 'better' than normal for a Chicago weekend...

No outrage on another weekend in Chicago. Not as violent as other weekends in Chicago.

Chicago and Illinois have strict gun laws.

If I am not mistaken it is also against the law to shoot people as well. :thatsright:
