The Slaughter In Chicago Continues Unabated..

In Chicago, 1,920 people have been shot this year. That is 199 fewer than 2018.

(I did not make up this data.  What you have just read are crime statistics that the Chicago Tribune crime tracking team has recently published.)

One hundred-ninety nine fewer than 2018.  Small comfort, indeed!

Further, 75 percent of those murdered are black, and 71 percent of MURDERERS are black!  

(These statistics come from the Chicago police department...)

So, let's take a look beyond the numbers, after all, we are talking about people -- human beings -- here, and some of those human beings are/have been children caught in the crossfire of the rampant gangs and drug lords trying to protect their "territory."

Keep in mind, over numerous decades, the "windy city" has had -- and continues to this day -- a string of Democrat mayors.

What is it about the Demonrats that crime flourishes wherever they have political majorities?

I have an answer to my own question: they have, for the most part, rejected God, not only in their own hearts and minds, but also in the public sphere.  A true recipe for disaster...

So, how do the liberal politicians in Chicago propose to counter or stop this daily massacre?  More gun control!?  As if the outlaw; the criminal will obey any new gun bans passed by those who have forgotten that the Natural Law gives us the right to defend ourselves and our families.  The only goal that further draconian legislation will accomplish will be to further restrict the ability of law-abiding citizens to properly and adequately defend themselves.

Will this slaughter ever change?  I don't know, but in the end, without Christ (the answer!) there is chaos.

Pray for our country..
