Brian Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Trevor Noah has been piling on Carson a lot this week. Rightfully so and God, Ben Carson is dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/b...1008-story.html One person dead in Chicago. 6 others wounded. Can we make a new thread each morning for those people too? Or do they matter less? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenksismyhero Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 9, 2015 -> 08:31 AM) If it was a school/university-related shooting, sure...why not? Or if the Chicago shooting was a copycat. But why did you feel it necessary to post this story in a new thread? It's a shooter on a campus with one dead and three wounded. No other details provided, but it sure sounds like a premeditated murder crime, which happens all over this country on a daily basis. There are awful people in this world who do awful things. Everyone knows that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilMonkey Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Always a chance this had zero to do with the school. :"The incident took place in a parking lot adjacent to our Mountain View resident's hall on the northeast side of campus." Looking at a map of the campus, that residence hall is at the very eastern edge of the campus and has no other campus building around it at all. Could be a drug deal gone bad. Could have been something that started elsewhere and ended up there, could have not been students at all. Not much details yet about anything.

caulfield12 Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Then you should ask Illinois' governor, senators or reps why they're not expressing condolences to the victims in Chicago like McCain already in AZ.

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Unsurprisingly, there was another school shooting at Northern Arizona University, but it was of the more traditional "personal dispute between 2 or more individuals" variety.

What's that have to do with you starting a new thread over a seemingly "regular" murder crime in hopes of tying it into the media frenzy/hysteria over "mass shootings."

Either it didn't happen and he's a liar, or it did happen and he's a asshole who told the shooter to go shoot someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Ho hum. Just chalk it up to another day in USA. Bam, you're dead. Just remember to always watch your back. You may be shot on purpose or accidentally. Read about those Chicago shootings. Some people just walking along and felt a pain. Hey don't they know they shouldn't be taking walks in America nowadays?

I know you will just ignore this as you always do when it doesn't match your agenda, but here are the yearly murders in Chicago: 1970: 810 1971: 824 1972: 711 1973: 862 1974: 970 1975: 818 1976: 814 1977: 823 1978: 787 1979: 856 1980: 863 1981: 877 1982: 668 1983: 729 1984: 741 1985: 666 1986: 744 1987: 691 1988: 660 1989: 742 1990: 851 1991: 928 1992: 943 1993: 855 1994: 931 1995: 828 1996: 796 1997: 761 1998: 704 1999: 643 2000: 633 2001: 667 2002: 656 2003: 601 2004: 453 2005: 451 2006: 471 2007: 448 2008: 513 2009: 459 2010: 436 2011: 435 2012: 516 2013: 441 2014: 432 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No surprise. The recent years with small spikes like 2012 and 2008 were unusually warm years - also no surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) One thing that's way undereported in those figures is the number of cases that remain unsolved. It used to be 60-70% of cases were cleared. Now it's like 25-30%. And falling. http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20130104/ch...han-two-decades Edited October 9, 2015 by Jenksismybitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
