At Least 70 Shot, 14 Dead by Sunday Night over July 4th Weekend in Chicago
AWR Hawkins | 5 Jul 2020
The Chicago Sun-Times reported that 74 were shot, 14 fatally, by 6:45 p.m. Central Time on July 5, 2020.
The Chicago Tribune reported the numbers as 80 shot, 17 fatally, by 5:29 p.m. July 5.
The fatalities included a seven-year-old Natalia Wallace, who was “shot in the head around 7 p.m. Saturday in the South Austin neighborhood while outside at a family gathering.â€
A 14-year-old boy was among four victims fatally shot later Saturday night in Englewood, and their deaths come one weekend after a one-year-old and ten-year-old were shot dead in Lightfoot’s Chicago.

Another 14 black lives that 'Black Lives Matter' doesn't give a damn about.

If 80 people were shot, assuming these guys are not sharpshooters and they are certainly not, then the number of shots fired is double or triple that. Add to that some of them are using fullauto weapons, and that many street shooters empty the mag every time they shoot, it is easy to guess that the number of shots fired could easily be between 400 to 800 rounds. That's very likely more rounds than was fired in Baghdad over the same period.
