About 70 Shot, 14 Dead by Sunday Night on July 4th Weekend in Chicago

2-2 minutes

Over 70 people have been shot, at least 14 of them fatally, by Sunday night over the Fourth of July weekend in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported that 74 were shot, 14 fatally, by 6:45 p.m. Central Time on July 5, 2020.

The Chicago Tribune reported the numbers as 80 shot, 17 fatally, by 5:29 p.m. July 5.

The fatalities included a seven-year-old Natalia Wallace, who was “shot in the head around 7 p.m. Saturday in the South Austin neighborhood while outside at a family gathering.”

A 14-year-old boy was among four victims fatally shot later Saturday night in Englewood, and their deaths come one weekend after a one-year-old and ten-year-old were shot dead in Lightfoot’s Chicago.

On July 1, 2020, Breitbart News reported that Chicago witnessed a 75 percent increase in shootings the month of June 2020. NBC 5 reported that murder rose in June too, with 78 percent more murders in June 2020 versus June 2019.

Yeah, but their gunfights are 20' apart. It'll be different for them when the bullets come from 150+ meters.

and those stats represent an uber uber effort by the CPD to curb violence >>> an extra 1500 CPDers were deployed for the holiday - I'm wondering how much effort was put forth considering the current "shit on" attitude toward LE ...

Not that well though. Take a minute to think about it. If you were going to go that route, how many more would be dead for each shot fired? They achieved 17 dead out of 80 actually injured, total known shots is unknown. LOL

Yet if we use the stats available they are only achieving 1 dead for every 4 shots that actually hit. I would bet that they are shooting up to ten times that before getting an actual hit.

We would do so much better. A team of 4 who actually put a little effort into it would have a much higher hit ratio and kill ratio. I would argue the only advantage they have is the ability to survive. I would even question that.

Another breakdown of the numbers that would be very telling would be to break the victims out in terms of intended target and bystander and numbe of rounds fI red as well as distances from the shooter.
