It was an especially brutal weekend in Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago this weekend. 73 people were shot, and 11 were killed, including police officer Ella French. It really says a lot about the city with some of the strictest gun laws in the country. Gang bangers continue to get their guns in the underground market, people continue to be shot in record numbers and die. This is what it’s like in a Democrat run cesspool. Lori Lightfoot needs to resign because of her incompetence.
Chicago police said 73 people were shot, 11, fatally, across the city over the weekend, more than half during a 10-hour span that saw a police officer killed and three mass shootings that wounded 16 people.
The mass shootings occurred about an hour apart in Gresham on the South Side early Sunday, not long after two Chicago police officers were shot during a traffic stop in West Englewood.
