At least 46 people were shot in Chicago -- two of which were killed -- since Friday night, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. The shootings add to another weekend of violence in the Windy City, which has been ravaged by gun violence in 2018.

On Saturday, three people were shot during a back-to-school peace picnic held at a playground in the city. The violence reportedly began after a group of men showed up to the event and started fighting.

The Sun-Times also reported that a 3-year-old boy was shot in the left shin Friday night on the city's South Side. Demonstrators took to the streets of Chicago earlier this month to call for the resignation of the city's mayor, Rahm Emanuel (D).

They blasted his administration for failing to curb the city's gun violence epidemic. More than 1,600 people have been shot in Chicago this year.

Between Saturday night and Sunday morning alone, the Sun-Times said 18 people had been shot, one fatally.

Just last weekend, at least 27 people were wounded and one woman was killed by gunfire in Chicago.

To put that in perspective, that's a higher rate than Baghdad :/

I wonder if they should let Chicago ban handguns. They tried once before and it was deemed unconsitutional. After the failure of that ban, the gun homicide rate rate nearly doubled within 2 years.

How come when half a dozen people get shot at a school it's 3 pages of topics but when 46 people get shot it's no big deal because it's chicago?

Most of the guns used in shootings in Chicago come from neighboring states with looser gun laws. This is a fact.

So criminals will have guns even though they are banned? What about the law abiding citizens? How can they defend themselves and their family?

We also know Trump is an idiot, that's not exactly news either. But that doesn't stop an endless stream of topics on this board whining about him every day.

They happen all the time. The question you should be asking is "When will the media pay more attention to them, and less to the BLM and Antifa riots and the white supremacist "rallies" that are more like 5-person get togethers?"

Gun laws do absolutely nothing to prevent violence in a city like Chicago.

Here's a thug explaining how easy it is to get an illegal gun and why this violence won't be stopping anytime soon.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/gun-violence-chicago-south-side-cbsn-on-assignment/

Asked where he got his .40-caliber gun, he said, "Off the streets, people sell 'em."

"Just like that, that's how easy it is," another man said.

"It's worth it for you to keep these guns?" Diaz asked.

"We felons. You know what I'm saying? Ain't nobody gonna give us no jobs. The cops don't give a f*** about us."

But when asked if innocent people dying by those bullets is worth it, they both said, "No."

"At the end of the day, it ain't worth it. But you got 'em motherf*****s wanna go through a drive by, you know what I'm saying? And some innocent, little sister get shot. Guess what? Them and them guys coming back in. That's how the confrontation is going to keep going."

"So why not just put the guns down?" Diaz asked.

"Put the guns down? Probably would happen. Maybe in the near future. No time right now. I don't want to put my gun down. Nine times out of ten the innocent ones get hurt, you know what I'm saying? If they come do a shooting right now we probably won't even get shot. And we got guns. You might get shot. That's how f****** up it is, you know? But it's survive or be killed."

Not a liberal but ill answer for you. Gun restrictions dont work in america at the moment because you can just go to a state with no restrictions to buy one. It needs to be country wide.
