While most of the country was either honoring the 20th anniversary of 9/11 over the past weekend, gangbanger thugs in Chicago were out shooting people again and the city’s mayor, BeetleJuice Lightfoot didn’t have a word to say about it. There were at least 60 people shot in Chicago this past weekend, and seven deaths. One of those killed was a 12 year old boy. A 15 year old teenage girl was also shot. This is what Democrats have done to Chicago, and still they keep voting Democrats.
Chicago police said 60 people have been shot, seven fatally, in weekend gun violence across the city.
