  1. My man, this is the status quo for Chicago. Every year, as soon as the weather breaks, every neighborhood with a high gang activity rate gets lit up like the 4th of July. Old gang beefs that people couldn’t handle in their Triple Fat parkas at 1 degree C, establishing drug dealing turf for the summer, and simple tom foolery (e.g. what you lookin’ at, you tried to talk to my hood rat/baby mama…errr…woman, etc.).
    The majority of these shooting could be stopped by legalizing drugs. You don’t see people shooting each other over whiskey sales anymore. It stopped soon after prohibition was repealed. That is the ONLY solution.

  2. Man, I agree with the Spaniard. Alot of this stuff is happening around the areas I lived in as a kid (‘ Wild Hundreds’) and it has been like this for a long time. Nevertheless, things are a bit out of pocket. I know brothas back home, vets in the game, who think it is going to be an extra hot summer because there are too many reckless young soldiers out there with guns who don’t listen to the chiefs anymore.

  3. Okay, so is something going on in Chicago that is different from other cities? In OKC, we have almost weekly killings. Sometimes it seems to be daily. The obits have more teens and early twenties than 80s and it has nothing to do with the average lifespan.

  4. AF,
    I think it’s irrelevant to try to “compare” the violence between two cities. The way you describe it, i’m sure OKC is a gang-ridden hellhole just like chicago. It’s not about which situation is better or worse, because its all crap.
