Violence in Chicago is soaring, despite some ludricrous claims, such this one from a spokesman from Cook County's so-called prosecutor, Kim Foxx, who calls it "a misconception." 

Wednesday was brutal.

From Fox Chicago:

A 14-year-old was killed and 28 other people were wounded by gunfire in Chicago Wednesday as the city was hit by three mass shootings in a single day. 

The boy was shot along with four other people in North Lawndale shortly after 6 p.m. Minutes later, a few blocks away, five people were shot outside Theodore Herzl Elementary School. 

Shortly before midnight, 8 people traveling on a party bus were shot in Lincoln Park. At least 34 other shootings this year have wounded four or more people, according to a Sun-Times analysis of city data. Over the last five years, Chicago has recorded the most mass shootings in the nation by far, according to the Gun Violence Archive.
