Three dead children in two days from Chicago violence

Chi-raq Cuisines

Yesterday a two-year-old boy died after being shot on Chicago's West Side--from gunfire that also killed a man and wounded a pregnant woman. On Saturday in separate shootings and 11-year-old girl and a 12-year-old were shot in the head. One of the victims died yesterday, the other today.

President Trump is right to call what is occurring in Chiraq carnage. Three children dead in two days--each of them caught in crossfire that in at least one case is clearly connected to gang violence--and the other two killings probably were too.

Antwan Jones, the accused killer of 11-year-old Takiya Holmes, is a member of the Black Disciples scumbags. A rival gang was allegedly selling marijuana in the apartment building where Holmes lived.

Chiraq man charged with killing 11-year-old

Oddly enough there is no mention in any of the media reports if this thug is a member of a street gang. If we assume gangs are everywhere in inner-city neighborhoods and nothing can be done about it, then I guess most people have given up turning things around in places like Chicago's South Side.

From CBS Chicago:

A 19-year-old man has been charged with murder in the shooting death of 11-year-old Takiya Holmes over the weekend.

Antwan C. Jones was charged early Wednesday morning, according to Chicago Police News Affairs.

Since Saturday, three children have been shot; two are dead and one is on life support.

Takiya was in a van with her mother and other relatives Saturday night, when they stopped at her mother’s workplace in the Parkway Gardens neighborhood, and bullets came flying through the window. A stray bullet struck Takiya in the head.

That same night a 12-year-old was also shot in the head on the South Side. The victim remains in critical condition and the assailant is at large.

Hannity: The DC swamp is rising to take down Trump

The media and left-wing politicians, but also, the Swamp in Washington--as if there is a difference--are conspiring to not only remove members of the Donald Trump administration, but to impeach our 45th president.

Chiraq carnage: Toddler and man shot dead in alley, pregnant woman wounded

North Lawndale

Of my twenty-or-so urban exploration expeditions only once did I think that there was a good possibility that I was about to be shot. And that was last winter in North Lawndale, where the latest Chiraq atrocity occurred.

From ABC Chicago:

A man and a 2-year-old boy were killed and a pregnant woman was injured Tuesday afternoon in a shooting on Chicago's West Side.

The boy was identified as Lavontay White, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office. The man's identity was not immediately released.

The three victims were shot while sitting in a car in the 2300-block of South Kenneth Avenue in the North Lawndale neighborhood, police said. They were in an alley between South Kenneth and South Kostner when a man ran up to the car and fired multiple shots into the vehicle.

Police were reviewing a Facebook Live stream that appears to show the shooting and aftermath. In it, a woman and man are seen driving in a car with a toddler visible at times in the back seat. Shots ring out, prompting the woman to run from the car, yelling for help. The police's rundown of the triple shooting closely matches that same narrative.

Most likely this was a street gang related shooting, which, and I hate to keep repeating myself, but gang activity, not guns, are what is behind Chicago's killing spree.

In related news, one of the two pre-teen Chicago girls shot on Saturday on the South Side died today.

(Video) Stammering snowflake Chris Kennedy has no answer on Boss Madigan

Illinois' snowflake Democratic candidate for governor, Chris Kennedy, had a questions posed to him by a Rockford TV station, "We asked him about the longest serving House speaker in the country, Mike Madigan," one anchor said. Another one continued, "We asked Kennedy after more than 28 years as House speaker, was it time for a change in leadership."

A stammering Kennedy put forth a mealy-mouthed answer.

Oh, an Illinois native, the late Nancy Reagan, even makes an appearance here. "Just say no."

Boss Madigan, a Chicago Democrat, is the one-man wrecking crew of Illinois.

(Video) O'Reilly reports on fake news coverage of illegal alien raids

Last night Fox News' Bill O'Reilly reported on "a stunning display of dishonesty from the national press and radical left politicians" in regards to the ICE arrests of nearly 700 illegal aliens, many of whom have felony convictions for crimes such as murder and rape, have been deported before." Those who were not criminals, other than being in the country illegally of course, had ties to these felons.

But leftist congressman Ruben Gallego calls these illegals "maids and moms."

He's a liar.

Flynn resigns as Trumps' national security adviser

Retired Lt. General Michael Flynn, a great patriot, resigned tonight as President Donald J. Trump's national security adviser.

Public pressure forced him out over little stuff. Flynn, before his appointment as national security advisor was approved by the Senate, discussed Russian sanctions, presumably the lifting of some, with the ambassador of Russia. Not a big deal but Flynn shouldn't have done it. Worse, he lied about that communication--and allowed the vice president to repeat that false information.

A bigger deal but one that should have cost Flynn his job.

On the way home from work tonight I listened to Mark Levin talk about treasonous actions by two Democratic senators from Massachusetts. John Kerry, who nearly became president in 2004, gave comfort to an enemy nation, North Vietnam, in his role as a leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War. "Lurch" of course later served as Barack Obama's second secretary of state.

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy in the early 1980s sent an emissary to Moscow for his plot with Soviet General Secretary Yuri Andropov to push his disarmament schemes, better phrased as plans to weaken America, and to bolster his hoped-for presidential run in 1988.

Chiraq: 5 dead and at least 22 wounded over weekend

Austin, at the Oak Park border

While the numbers aren't as high as many other Chicago weekends, this past one was particularly tragic in Chiraq. Five people were shot to death and at least 22 other were wounded. Of the latter, two of the gunshot victims were South Side girls, one 11, the other 12, who were shot in the head in separate incidents. Both are in critical condition.

Three of the five fatalities, the occurred in the Austin neighborhood on the West Side. According to HeyJackass, Austin, which borders fashionable and smug Oak Park, leads Chicago in both fatal and non-fatal shootings. We here about Englewood but not so-much Austin.That will change soon, I assume.

The other two deadly shootings happened on the South Side, one in Auburn Gresham, the other in South Shore.
