Its August 7th and Trumps already nearly lost the election. I guess I'll just sit back and wait to hear moy and all3 switch from unrealistic optimism to 'gloom and doom'.
Trump is going to win. You watch too much news. It's unreliable.

"First of all, 8 points down at this stage, of course you'd rather be ahead, but I remember George Bush the first being 16 points down to [Michael] Dukakis going into September. So let's, you know, calm down," he said on ABC's "This Week."

"Everyone should calm down about it. There's certainly every opportunity for Trump to win this election."

Voter participation dropped 5% last election cycle. 45% eligible chose not to vote.

TRUMP voters claim they have never voted in their lives.

Some say over 20 years and others say they haven't voted for 2 or 3 election cycles.

These people are not included in the likely voter poll. It's not a silent majority.

This is a volcano about to erupt in November the smartest people on the planet never saw coming.

If they want to create real change its starts with changing the culture of their drug riddled, crime infested, low education urban communities.... Not by making it harder for the police to police. What a bunch of dumb *****!!! Gangs are the problems, not cops.
"Gangs are the problem"

More insight from an expert on the plight of the black, low income urban community. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us moy.

Maybe all3 will start educating us on homosexuality given his expertise in that area (you know, because of the dozens of gay friends he has).
39% of all gang members in the US are black, yet blacks make up what.... 13% of the total population in the US?


You have not provided ONE fact, only spoon fed rhetoric.
Again, "gangs are the problem" Where do you get that (besides Fox News?).

And really moy, I haven't provided anything where I need to provide any facts. Because I haven't made any statements. All I've done is rip apart yours. So not sure what me providing 'facts' or 'rhetoric' has anything to do with you being a closeted racist.
Do you not think gangs are a problem?

CHICAGO (STMW) — Five people were killed and at least 36 more have been wounded in shootings across the city since Friday evening.

The weekend’s latest homicide happened early Sunday during a birthday party attended by more than 100 people in the University Village neighborhood on the Near West Side.

The man was shot in the head and chest and was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. The woman suffered a gunshot wound to the left arm and back and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where her condition was stabilized.

More than a dozen police officers guarded the scene early Sunday on Hastings, which was partially blocked off between Throop and Loomis. A large pool of blood could be seen in the street, surrounded by bottles, cups and other remnants of the party that took place before shots rang out.

Dana Fitch, 33, said she had just stepped away from the party and into another friend’s house on the block when she heard more than 20 shots ring out. When she looked outside, people were running and screaming.

“Everybody was just mingling and talking. It was fun. I haven’t had a good time like this in so long,” said Fitch, who grew up in the neighborhood, but now lives in Aurora. “It was just too good.”

About 11 p.m. Saturday, a 26-year-old man was killed in a Pilsen neighborhood drive-by shooting.

He was walking in the 1900 block of South May when someone began shooting from a passing silver sedan, police said. The man was shot multiple times and taken to Stroger Hospital were he was pronounced dead.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed those fatalities, but did not provide additional information early Sunday.

Earlier Saturday, someone shot a 29-year-old man several times in the head about 4:25 a.m. in the 11600 block of South Torrence, and he was pronounced dead at the scene at 5:05 a.m., authorities said.

Authorities have not released the man’s name. Detectives think the shooting may have happened during a home invasion that stemmed from a domestic dispute, police said.

An hour before that, a 32-year-old man was shot to death on the Near North Side.

Maurice Selvy was outside with a 33-year-old man in the 800 block of North Cambridge about 3 a.m. when someone opened fire, authorities said.

They were taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where Selvy died at 3:11 a.m. of gunshot wounds to the head and abdomen, authorities said. He lived a block north of the shooting scene.

The older man, shot in the torso, was listed in good condition. Police said he was uncooperative with detectives.

The weekend’s first fatal shooting happened about 12:30 a.m. Saturday in the West Ridge neighborhood on the North Side.

Miguel Bahena, 18, was walking in the 2100 block of West Devon Avenue when a gunman in a gray hoodie and light blue pants began shot him in the chest, authorities said. Bahena, of the 5600 block of North Campbell, was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:37 a.m.

The weekend’s latest nonfatal shooting happened about 4:30 a.m. Sunday in the West Side Austin neighborhood.

A 22-year-old man told investigators he was walking in the 6000 block of West Chicago when he heard gunfire and realized he’d been shot in the right thigh, police said. He later showed up at Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was listed in good condition.

About an hour earlier, four people were wounded in a shooting in the West Garfield Park neighborhood.

The shooting occurred about 3:30 a.m. in the 100 block of South Springfield, police said. A 20-year-old man was shot in the head and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition. A 37-year-old man was shot multiple times in the groin and abdomen and took himself to Stroger Hospital, where he was listed in serious condition. Two other males of unknown ages were taken to Stroger Hospital. One of them was shot in the back. Additional information was not immediately available.

At least 29 more people have been shot across Chicago since 7 p.m. Friday.

CHICAGO (STMW) — Four men were killed and at least 62 other people, including three children, were wounded in shootings across Chicago over the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

Two children, 8-year-old Corey Bondurant and 5-year-old Taniyah Williams, were playing with fireworks outside in the 5500 block of South Hermitage in the West Englewood neighborhood about 11 p.m. when someone on the street started shooting, according to relatives and Chicago Police.

The boy was shot in the right leg and the girl was shot in the left leg, police said. They were both taken to Comer Children’s Hospital, where their conditions were stabilized. The children, who are cousins, are expected to survive.

A 30-year-old woman and 19-year-old man who were also wounded in the shooting later showed up at University of Chicago Medical Center, police said. They were each shot in the left leg and listed in good condition.

Police said the shooting appeared to be gang-related.

An 11-year-old boy was also injured in a shooting Monday night on the Lower West Side. The boy was sitting on the porch of a home in the 2000 block of South Western about 9:30 p.m. when he suffered an injury to his right arm that he thought was caused by an errant firework, police said. He was taken to St. Anthony Hospital, where it was discovered that his wound was actually caused by gunfire. He was listed in good condition.

The most recent fatal attack happened early Tuesday in the Humboldt Park neighborhood on the West Side.

A 34-year-old man was standing outside in the 1100 block of North Ridgeway talking to two women who were sitting in a parked vehicle at 1:35 a.m. when he got into an argument with a pair of males in the street, police said. One of the males then opened fire.

The man was shot in the head and was dead at the scene, police said.

A 29-year-old woman was shot in the right shoulder and taken to Stroger Hospital in serious condition, according to police. The other woman, 31, was shot in the right hand and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in good condition.

About 9:20 p.m. Monday, a man was shot to death in the South Shore neighborhood. Officers responding to a call of a traffic crash with injuries in the 6900 block of South Clyde found the man — thought to be in his 30s — lying in the street with a gunshot wound to his abdomen, police said. He was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he died.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office did not confirm the deaths early Tuesday.

About 10:50 p.m. Sunday, officers responding to a call of a person down in the 2200 block of South Lawndale found a man lying on the ground with a gunshot wound to the back of the head, according to police.

He was pronounced dead at the scene, in a lot across the street from Paderewski Elementary Learning Academy in the Little Village neighborhood. The man was thought to be in his 20s, but the medical examiner’s office was still working to identify him Monday night.

Early Saturday, a man was killed and another wounded in an East Garfield Park neighborhood shooting on the West Side.

Hector Badillo Jr., 31, was standing outside an auto repair shop about 3:30 a.m. in the 700 block of North California Avenue when a gunman came out of an alley and opened fire, according to police and the medical examiner’s office.

Badillo, of the 400 block of North Trumbull, was shot in the neck and pronounced dead at the scene at 3:41 a.m., authorities said. Family members said his father owned the repair shop.

A 44-year-old man sitting in a car nearby was shot in the left leg, police said. His condition was stabilized at Stroger Hospital.

At least 54 more people have been shot in separate attacks across the city since about 5 p.m. Friday. Additionally, police say a man fatally stabbed his brother in self-defense early Saturday on the South Side.

At least 63 people were shot over the Fourth of July weekend in 2015, leaving 10 dead.

Wow, somebody sure has a crush on me. Take a totally unrelated subject and twist it so you can mention me. (WTH do gangs have to do with homosexuality?) I'm not sure if I'm flattered or scared. Why exactly does it bother you that I have homosexual friends? Are you threatened by straight people with gay friends? Maybe you could riot and protest against them and blame it on the police. Maybe you hope to "turn" me. Whatever the reason, I find it hilarious that you are so bothered and obsessed.
