not my problem

>52
>link: 32
So OP lied immediately, what a shocker
Apparently the shill is celebrating the holiday by asking to get BTFO all day

>>1431408
That's really the best you have? Lying on the internet?
Lmao

>>1431408
to be fair the headline on the article really does say 52

>>1431416
Where is 32 coming from? Did he make it up or is that what the actual totals are if you add up every shooting casualty from the article?

This doesn't count as mass shootings according to Democrats

>>1431417
>>1431416
No, even if you add it up it's still 52
7 fatal + 45 non-fatal = 52 total shot

So he did just make it up.

Retard.

Its the URL

>>1431418
This counts as terrorism according to Republicans

>>1431418
Amazing that it took six posts for the sperglord to start whining about democrats

>>1431420
Hey, the URL also says you're a faggot so it must be true even though when I click into it the article describes 52 people being shot: https://abc7chicago.com/post/you-are-a-major-faggot/17701051/

Its another shillish fenty meltie, alright

>>1431426
Really weird of you to talk about yourself in the third person like that

>>1431426
>>1431427
Guys the thread exists to blame democrats for population density problems. If you can't do that then go to another thread.

>>1431428
I'm 32% sure you're wrong about that

>>1431428
According to Wikipedia, Chicago's, only the 80th most dense city in the US, so I don't think population density is really the only thing at play here

>>1431430
It's the third largest city after NYC and LA ya foreign moron

>>1431435
It seems that you don't know English well enough to understand the difference between the terms "density" and "size".

The original post said "population density". Try Google translating it into Punjabi or whatever the fuck your native tounge is and you might understand your mistake

>>1431440
As a proud American, English is the only language I know, so... You're a complete retard if you think Chicago is evenly distributed over its suburbs.

>>1431429
Ahh so it's actually a racebait thread. Got it. Those are so rare on /news/.

>>1431441
>You're a complete retard if you think Chicago is evenly distributed over its suburbs.
I only argued against your demonstrably incorrect statement.
Aren't you the retard for saying "population density" instead of "size"?

I'm not even sure how you can argue size matters more than population density anyways. Isn't that your whole talking point, that a lot of people packed tightly together are more violent than people stretched over long distances?

>>1431444
I know you live in Mumbai so I'll clue you in on a thing about Chicago. There are parts that are very dense, where the crimes keep happening, and there are parts that are sprawl, where it is relatively safe.

>>1431435
Houston is actually the 3rd largest. Chicago is 4th, but it used to be 2nd.

>>1431398 (OP)
Sounds like they’re going to get a visit from Trump’s National Guard…

>>1431449
They could be 100% crime free and still get a visit from Trump's shock troops. He's sending them to all the cities that voted against him.

>>1431450
Nice try lefto but Trump sent the NG to 19 Red States.

>>1431452
get a real job

>>1431450
He's only sent them to DC though. And I guess LA because they were assaulting federal agents

>>1431469
It's just a distraction from the real news anyway.

>>1431453
Ahaa! What a 4chan idiot!

>>1431469
>assaulting federal agents
they were?
I saw a bunch of abuse hurled at anonymous masked retards who never identified themselves
Federal agents identify themselves though, so that definitely wasn't them

>>1431473
Are you always this stupid or is it just when you're posting anonymously online?

>>1431481
He has a point you know.

>>1431482
I just hope you can continue to hold your viewpoint that " It's okay to assault people wearing masks" It's okay to assault people wearing masks the next time you fags decide to riot, because we all know none of you tards show your faces as your looting and burning structures

>>1431488
so you admit masked ice agents are on the same level as rioters in your book?

>>1431488
oh, and i almost forgot to make fun of you for your terrible knowledge of the english language

esl

>>1431489
Why would people in homeland security or ice uniforms and vehicles be on the same level as random nobodies trying to burn shit down and loot buildings?

I'm saying that if all it takes is a mask to justify violence, the left-wing rioters would have all been shot long ago

>>1431497
it's funny that nobody believes you're white or american

>gee libs, why can you see a difference between people wearing a mask to prevent a disease and having masked, anonymous cops refusing to identify themselves?
>I can't, despite screeching like a retard for my right to infect other people and complaining about masked anonymous feds whenever dems are in charge.

>>1431489
Fuck you and fuck Democrats. The only purpose of unmasking the agents is so that you shit heads can harass them while they do their job

>>1431501
nobody likes a fascist faggot who plays victim, anon

>>1431488
You people think throwing a sandwich at or filming an agent counts as "assault" so .
>as your looting and burning structures
Cool strawman, grandpa

Even cooler strawman, grandpa

Where did this whole meme come from? The science shows that conservatives have sex more often than liberals

esl shill is larping as a non virgin, LOL

>>1431537
you should probably wait until 3 am to post so you can get your shillcraft off, huh

>>1431537
OH MY SCIENCE THE DATA FROM THIS ONE STUDY SHOWS IT!

>>1431540

But then, liberals aren't pedos. Unlike conservatives.

>>1431398 (OP)
Chicongo votes democrat with that in mind i find it outrageous that not more democrat voters died.

>>1431518
>52 people out of 2721000 people. WOW.

The city of Chicago has more murders than the _entire state_ of neighboring Indiana.

>>1431639
see >>1431406
fpbp

>>1431639
>The city of Chicago has more murders than the _entire state_ of neighboring Indiana
Proof?
No way thats possible, Indiana has more permissive gun laws. By definition they have more gun crime

>>1431644
look i see your point but the us has a gun problem in general but i do agree

>>1431646
There’s no gun problem out there that can’t be solved by More Guns!

>>1431408
>it's another "Zoomers don't understand anything about the media or the internet" thread
with articles like this, they will update the headline/article as facts change. However, they can't update the URL so that remains what it was when the article was first published.
At the time the article was originally written, 32 people had been shot and 3 killed.
When OP made this thread, it was 52 shot and 7 dead.
And now, it's been updated again to:

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

>>1431441
you're an American Zoomer though so your generation barely understands English no cap fr fr On God. Which is why you got population size and density confused.

>>1431662
(boomer moralfag screeching intensifies)

>>1431664
>Democrat shill resorts to shitposting because he knows he got objectively BTFO yet again
it's all so tiring

>>1431667
Cool headcanon, grandpa

>>1431667
That's pretty much how this clanker is programmed. Granted, I'm surprised it used "boomer" instead of "esl", I think it's devs are finally listening to community feedback

>>1431668
>reality is headcannon
Tell me more about how population density is the same as population size, and how density is the only factor in violent crime even though Chicago had a million more people in 1950 while having 1/3 of the homicide rate, and how Chicago's violence doesn't have anything to do with Democrats supporting broken families and teaching Black kids to blame racism for everything instead of accepting responsibility
>>1431672
They're also programmed to accuse us of samefagging. We'll see if this comment interrupts their programming

>>1431677
>They're also programmed to accuse us of samefagging
By this point I'm convinced that whoever makes these comments is either a person who doesn't actually believe it and just says it when they are getting btfo, or a literal bot

>>1431677
We all know this thread exists only so you can spout your pro-nuclear-family anti-black talking points. Go ahead and get it out of your system.

>>1431677
>>1431679
Not the poster you're talking about but he does it because there are only 2 or 3 conservative ideologues max on this board. He thinks all 3 of you are the same person because your opinions and "alternative facts" are the same.

>>1431682
>your opinions and "alternative facts" are the same.
Look in the mirror

>>1431722
i wouldn't if i were you

>>1431722
Yes that's why you come to this board, to tell us the news is wrong and your alternative facts are real.

>>1431680
>pro-nuclear-family anti-black talking points
What kind of person types this shit?

>>1431398 (OP)
>52 "people"

>>1431725
Someone who wasn't brainwashed by conservative thinktanks.

>>1431727
You instead chose liberal brain rot. Go color your hair blue and cut your dick off and then 42% yourself

you're brown (and i don't even care, you do)

>>1431733
>>1431731
good post

>>1431398 (OP)
>prove you don't need federal law enforcement to calm violence by starting a mass shooting
great logic libshits

>>1431735
7 gun deaths in a city of literally over 2 million is nothing.

>>1431736
so what mortality rate would satisfy your bloodthirst demmy?

>>1431737
What mortality rate would you have to stop threatening to deploy the military on US cities? The impossible 0? If THIS is considered enough of an emergency to occupy a city, that occupation is never going to end.

>>1431753
100% if chop can happen then why can't the federal government send in troops to secure the nation huh? are you a terrorist or something and scared they'll find out what ur up to

>>1431770
>send in troops to secure the nation
Secure what? All you're accomplishing is using the military to keep the population in line. There wasn't even an inciting incident for either of Trump's recent deployments; his biggest justification for occupying DC was ONE guy from DOGE was in a "carjacking incident" where he apparently decided to heroically face off against 10 kids who openly declared "hehehe we're gonna steal your car" while randomly out with his girlfriend at 3am in the morning.

>>1431774
if you don't have anything to hide and aren't planning anything maybe you shouldn't be against more law enforcement huh? its not like its more cops these are federal military they're more disciplined.
Its almost like you're planning something and are mad trump preemptively put an end to it by putting you on watch.

>>1431777
>its not like its more cops these are federal military they're more disciplined
Federal military are worse than cops when it comes to discipline in a civic context. There is a very good reason the military and the police are separate things; military are trained for combat, not law enforcement. They are not trained to interact with civilians. They are not trained to enforce laws. They are trained to be deployed against enemies. When you are deploying them on your own cities, you are making your own people the enemy.

>>1431780
>They are trained to be deployed against enemies.
well seeing as chicago just had another mass shooting clearly that was the right call.

>>1431803
Who are those troops going to be interacting with 99% of the time anon? Not this theoretical indefinite mass shooter you seem to think they're being used against.

>>1431804
every leftists is a potential mass shooter, every righty is a potential mass shooter. they're all threats

>>1431780
Literally all of the war in Iraq/Afghanistan from the military perspective was about "inspiring hearts and minds" and interacting with people who don't even speak English.

>>1431780
A lot of our own people ARE the enemy though.

>>1431836
>our
Don't make me say it anon

>>1431408
You people are actually retarded.

>>1431657
Damn people just keep getting shot and killed in Chicago

>>1431835
Yeah and that worked out SO well.

>>1431780
So have they shot anyone? Or you just fear-mongering

>>1431736
ok, then we don't need to ban all the guns. It's fine.

>>1431837
its about time we admit that leftists are anti-american and start revoking their citizenship if they go against the country. citizenship should be a privilage not a right and people like you who support domestic terrorism deserve to no longer have it

>>1431905
we?

>>1431780
>Federal military are worse than cops when it comes to discipline in a civic context.

Thousands of cops are veterans of the War on Terror, which itself was mostly a police action.

Just say'n.

>>1431922
That explains a lot.

>>1431922
Yeah this isn't the positive points towards either the military or police you think it is.

>>1431733
The trick to making apple strudel is to attempt to control your severe dyspraxia and debilitating retardation which may make this recipe impossible for you

>>1431905
>citizenship should be a privilage not a right
>privilage
The powers that be shall start with you, as you're not American. Americans know how to spell. ESL foreigners such as you don't. Proof:

>>1431916
>we?
>>1431905 admits to being schizophrenic. Its use of 'we' instead of 'I' proves this fact about this schizo shill seething at reality having a liberal bias, and the world will never be as it wishes it to be.
oh no, >>1431733 >>1431734 >>1431905 is going haywire again.
