Chicago Citizens Have 1 in 15 Chance of Being Shot by the Time They’re 40; 26 More Victims Over Weekend

People growing up in the city of Chicago have about a one in fifteen chances of being shot by the time they turn 40, results of a new survey suggest.

Last weekend, at least 26 people in Chicago were shot, eight fatally, including three who were wounded while standing on a sidewalk and caught in the crossfire between two vehicles. That’s up from the 20 citizens who were shot, and the four killed by gunfire, the previous weekend.

A new study finds that 6.46% (1 in 15) of Chicagoans had been shot by their 40th birthday. What’s more, half (50.0%) had witnessed a shooting by that age.

According to the results of the study of more than twenty-four hundred Chicagoans, published last Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Blacks and Hispanics are much more likely than are Whites to be shot by the time they turn 40:

    6.46% (1 in 15) of all respondents had been shot by age 40.

    7.47% (1 in 13) of Black respondents had been shot.

    7.05% (1 in 14) of Hispanic respondents had been shot.

    3.13% (1 in 32) of White respondents had been shot by age 40 years................

At some point it's hard to be sympathetic to their continued childlike view of the world.

'Oh but but but, if we vote for them THIS time it will be peace, love, beautiful rainbows, unicorns, and pixie dust!!!'

At what point does faith in this woke Marixist crap become just straight cult religion and zero actual politics?

I think we're there.
