This weekend marked both the new federal holiday of Juneteenth as well as Father’s Day. Chicago gang bangers showed their usual reverence for life and the wellbeing of their fellow man by murdering nine and maiming 49 additional souls. That includes a couple who was attacked on camera as they returned from a Puerto Rican People’s Day parade.

HeyJackass as the official numbers of the carnage. The City of Chicago’s sources like to exclude areas of the city where the local constabulary don’t have jurisdiction – such as the Interstates, colleges and other venues. Mayor Lori Lightfoot continues bob and weave to avoid taking responsibility for the dead on her watch by continuing this practice.

And while Lightfoot continues to do nothing substantive to quell the rampant, out-of-control gang violence in her city, she did symbolically declare that racism is a public health crisis in the city, one that’s “literally killing us.” Really.

From CBS Chicago:

Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Thursday declared systemic racism a public health crisis in Chicago, saying disparities in access to effective and affordable health care, the impact of racism on the mental health of people of color, and the subsequent difference in life expectancy “is literally killing us.”

“At almost every point in our city’s history, sadly, racism has taken a devastating toll on the health and well-being of our residents of color, and particularly those who are Black,” Lightfoot said. “Without formally acknowledging this history and reality, and the continuing impact of that infamous legacy, looking at the root causes of today’s challenges, we will never be able to move forward as a city and fully provide our communities with the resources that we need to live happy, vibrant, and fulfilled lives.”

In the end, the final count in terms of real-world violence in Murder City USA lived up to its moniker:

Chicago’s gang culture tallied eight killed and 49 wounded. Here’s a newsflash: not a one of the perps had a Firearms Owner’s ID card or a concealed carry license.

It included a couple ambushed by three black males as they headed home from the Puerto Rican People’s Day Parade in an apparent carjacking attempt.

From the Chicago Sun-Times:

A man was killed, and a woman was critically wounded in a shooting Saturday night in Humboldt Park on the Northwest Side.

About 9:15 p.m., the man and woman, 24 and 25, were in the 3200 block of West Division Street, when they were ambushed by up to three males who fired shots at them, Chicago police said.

The man, Gyovanny Arzuaga, was rushed to Saints Mary and Elizabeth Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

The woman was struck in the neck and rushed to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, police said.

A memorial for Arzuaga was erected Sunday just feet from where the 24-year-old father of two was shot dead in Humboldt Park a day earlier.

A black poster board with messages like “Happy Father’s Day” and “RIP Gyo” was taped to a post. Loved ones lit candles and left balloons and bouquets of flowers for Arzuaga, who was with a woman Saturday at Chicago’s annual Puerto Rican People’s Day Parade before they were attacked.

“He was just there to have a good time and go back home,” said his friend, Jae Pacheco, who had planned to meet up with him later in the evening.

Video of the perps shooting the couple went viral on the internet, showing the brutality of some of the most feral members of Chicago’s violent criminal class.

    • Jsled, maybe if we renamed it ” anonymous sperm-doners day”, it would alleviate some of the confusion and frustration that’s behind all of this gang activity ? I mean, we already have banned Columbus day and Christmas day, why not give ALL holidays a lefty slant, right? And why is it racist to point out that the people blaming “systemic racism ” can completely get a pass on calling out the race of the perpetrators ? As for a lack of decent people on here… I haven’t seen the tally of how many people we murdered over the weekend, have you?

        • Oh, sorry… you mean “Indigenous Peoples day ” , followed by simply “The Holidays ” ? At the city that I previously contracted at, it was a forced time -off violation if you were caught wishing someone ” Merry Christmas”

    • As long as they’re eliminating themselves, I’ll say give them more time. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

    • I watched the Twitter video. Note how the coward(s) shot the couple as they lay on the asphalt, then scattered like roaches to avoid being caught or shot themselves.

      THIS is why I carry everywhere. My earliest memory of this type of surprise thuggery was Reginald Denny’s attack back in the early ’90s during the L.A. Riots. I started carrying the very next year.

      http://content.time.com/time/specials/2007/la_riot/article/0,28804,1614117_1614084_1614511,00.html

      Just this past weekend, when Six Flags Magic Mountain finally re-opened and people from L.A. drove up here by the thousands, I got temporarily stuck in the offramp traffic because I drove that direction out of habit (there’s been no traffic there for more than a year). Dozens of Los Angeles residents of – ahem – a certain slice of society were walking right down the middle of the four-lane street in between vehicles as we all waiting for the CHP officers to allow us to move forward. The – ahem – people of a certain slice of society were yelling at whites and slapping their windows as they walked by.

      I carry. Every day.

      • Haz,

        Just thinking about your experience on the off-ramp:

        1. Was your family with you at the time?

        2. I am sure you maintained your composure….maintaining a grey-man posture. Did other drivers, visible to you, do the same?

        3. What do you think that (must have been colorful) slice of society, slapping windows and yelling at white folk accomplished? /SarcFont Gained friends? Spread the Gospel of love and salvation? Earned a day’s wages? Got exercise? Promoted unity through dialog? Reduced the risk of violence? Forestalled climate change by walking rather than driving?

        Just trying to understand how threatening behavior makes this country a better place.
        /SarcFont

        Yes. Carry everywhere.

        • 1. My wife was with me and genuinely frightened, enough to vocally ask me to refrain from doing or saying anything to gain any attention from any of the rabblerousers. There were enough of them within close proximity to just our own vehicle that two full (standard cap) mags would not have completely protected us if they had all attacked. All the males were bigger than I, and I’m not frail my any means.

          2. See #1 above. Gray Man is usually the best way to go.

          3. The – ahem – people of a certain slice of society were only interested in acting as a small mob and reinforcing the delusion that it is an acceptable means to elevating their societal status over those of a lighter shade of melanin content. Because reasons, I guess.

        • I use think rifle/30 in carboat was overboard.
          Things are changing.
          When I go to bigley town a Kay in elephants nose, seat bak foldy downy.
          Scary these mobs are.

      • IHAQ calling other people ‘cowards’ is rich. Also note how this ‘hero’ celebrates the fact he’s willing to shoot black and brown folks (or has he puts it ‘certain slice of society’) for the minor offense of jaywalking. What a pud.

    • “Nothing short of war will save this country now.”

      Regrettably, I’m beginning to agree with you.

      There’s a short video you *really* need to see. It’s on Tucker Carlson’s paywalled show, and he’s interviewing Glenn Loury, a black intellectual super-heavy weight, and Carlson asks him where all this is heading.

      Loury flat lays it out. He says, “I think it can lead into 1789, Paris. I think it can lead into a cul-de-sac of a horrible, dark, no-nothing-ism kind of place.”

      Search the youtube for “Glenn Loury on Tucker Carlson Discussing Identity, George Floyd, & Racializing Crime in America”

      Yeah, he went there. The French Revolution. Guillotines. That whole horror-show.

      Search Glenn Lowry’s other stuff on Y-Tube, what he does with John McWhortor is seriously powerful stuff.

      There’s more in there, it’s well worth the 10 min. of your time…

      • Interesting. Yes, at about the same time we were wrapping up our own journey to become the American Republic, the French were becoming embroiled in their own revolution. And it ended very differently for them.

        • Sam I Am was right to a point, the .gov will crack heads to put down who they see as ‘right-wing terrorists’. But that will only go so far before as Glenn Lowry mentioned, the rest of normal America will say ‘enough’ in a way that the Left cannot possibly prepare for.

          For a historical perspective, the end of the ‘Cultural Revolution’ was quite illuminating…

  1. Systemic racism in Chicago.
    Aren’t the majority of the political leaders in this city black? Haven’t they been in power for a while?
    Just asking…

    • Wasn’t Liberia founded by freed African American former slaves? How did that turn out?

      The only industry is dodgy shipping registrations. The national pastime is coup of the week.

      • I hate to say it SC but I think that comment was a little racist.
        Sounds a little oxymoronic to the comments above I know however I believe they are more about a culture then a breed of people.

        • That’s the whole point. They can’t blame whitey for that mess when they were in charge. But they will anyway. We could also add many, many more countries to the list.

  2. I never thought I would ever say this, but…

    Seeing that cold-blooded execution video makes me feel bad for those forced to live in that cesspool… 🙁

    • It’s understandable. I don’t pity them, per say, because in America if you have the will to move and make something of yourself it can be done. Nobody said life is easy. But parts of decent human beings would love to see this stop. The sad part is, the idiots who baselessly claim to be “decent” blame the guns. The actual decent people would rather start at the source and address the community.

  3. Expect the worst when you have people who are ignorant enough to still belong to the party of their slave masters. The obvious problem is they have nothing but demoCrap for brains. Seriously…A Black American belonging to the democRat Party makes as much sense as a Jew belonging to the nazi party.

  4. The solutions to the crime problem in Chicago is quite simple, but those in-charge must have the will to do it. Apparently the profits and the loyalty of the Gangs must be important to the DemoRat Party, as that is the only explanation that makes sense as to why these state of chaos is not being addressed.

    The City of Chicago, The State of Illinois and the Federal Government have a literal menu of crimes these folks can be charged with, that would leave them in jail for the rest of their lives. Everything from Tax Evasion to Murder to RICO crimes could be used on every single one of them.

    Once they are all in federal prison, an effort needs to be conducted to break the cycle of crime and poverty by identifying children in the possession of drug addicts, criminals and others. These young children need to be removed from these dangerous homes and placed into quality boarding schools, far away from Chicago.

    Next the Chicago Police need to be policed as they are corrupts, as is the entire city.

    • No room at the Inn. While many of these crimes are federal, the feds don’t have the room in their prisons for the sheer amount of criminals in Chicago.
      Illinois Prisons are at 160% of capacity so they need to build more.
      The cost to just put IL prisons at 100% would be over a billion dollars and leaves no room for growth.
      As much as people like to say the IL prisons are full of drug offenders, that’s BS.
      They are filled with the most violent of the violent. It isn’t petty criminals, they take pleas.
      There are 94 people accused of murder on home confinement.

      This is from a month ago. There is no room at Cook County Jail either.

      I don’t like Tom Dart or Kim Foxx but what do you do if you arrest or charge someone and there’s no place to put them?
      “Thousands of defendants charged with violent crimes are out on a loose electronic monitoring system.”

      The CPD isn’t at fault, what is the sense in arresting someone if it’s catch and release?
      The CPD has had more LEOS retire at this point in 2021 then they did of all of 2020.

      • “There is no room at Cook County Jail either.”
        this is the only part of your post i disagree with. division one is coming down curently unoccupied) and the rest of the complex has been largely emptied.
        look into how many relatives of the media are employed by dart, diverting funds away from incarceration.

  5. Juneteenth should NEVER have been made a national holiday. This is just buying votes. At the cost of “E Pluribus Unum”.

    “Senators Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.), Tina Smith (D-Minn.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.). and Kamala D. Harris (D-Calif.) today announced they will introduce the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act”

    “Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (TX-18) has introduced companion legislation, H.R.7232, in the Houes of Representatives.”

    https://www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-releases/senators-markey-smith-booker-and-harris-to-introduce-legislation-to-make-juneteenth-a-federal-holiday

    • I hear ya Chris…a “holiday” celebrating white republicans liberating black slaves from white democrats. Slavery didn’t end in 1865. Still going on in Chiraq.

    • “National Independence Day,” they’re calling it? No thanks, we’ve already got one. It’s called July 4th, and it’s very nice.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1_mfhMmmIs

      I’m not opposed to Juneteenth being a national holiday. It’s significant enough to merit the recognition. Maybe we could swap it for MLK day.

      What I *am* opposed to is any credit for it going the political party that is STILL doing its best to keep blacks on the plantation and meanwhile dreaming of gulags for everyone else.

      • “I’m not opposed to Juneteenth being a national holiday. It’s significant enough to merit the recognition. Maybe we could swap it for MLK day.”

        Notice how they never mention MLK these days?

        MLK’s “Judge not the color of your skin, but the content of their character” is being swept under the rug and replaced by those deliberately dividing this nation by race, and who is an ‘oppressor’ and who is an ‘oppressor’…

        MLK would be sickened and *horrified* as to what is happening to race relations today… 🙁

        • Hadn’t thought about it, but you’re absolutely right. Of course MLK would be persona non grata with the communist critical race theory crowd. I wonder when they’ll start calling him a race traitor and tearing all the statues down.

  6. fantawstic points altogether, you just gained a emblem new reader.

    What could you suggest in regards to your publish that
    you simply made some days in the past? Any positive?

  7. ITT (and post), just a massive amount of naked, red-meat racism for your racist readers.

    Who thought this was a good post?

    Have you no shame?

  8. Juneteenth, yah gotta be shtting me. That’s really a holiday, no way, LOL.

    I cant wait until Kammela is prez, whoopie. How about you?

    • “I cant wait until Kammela is prez, whoopie.”

      Well, that will push up the timeline to “The Great Cleansing Fire” headed this way… 🙁

    • thank goodness for the power of the comma. for a moment i thought someone mentioned president whoopie. shudder.
      “fire, the biblical cleanser.” -milk and cheese (and gin…)

    • She won’t.
      She made sure there was a Juneteenth parade but there will be no Independence Day parade.
      She cites Covid, the convenient excuse of the left when they don’t want to do something.
      The Puerto Ricans were damn sure going to have their parade yesterday, they did that for 43 years.
      Yet that somehow doesn’t qualify as a state or federal holiday.
      This is the woke culture movement in action.
      If the white population tried to have a “Whityteenth” day, there would be outrage.
      It’s similar to how the left wants to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples’ Day.
      Columbus Day is racist, it doesn’t matter that he was the European that found America.
      Chicago is a lost cause as is Illinois. AOC is already claiming Sleepy Joe isn’t doing enough.
      Squad goals: “Ocasio-Cortez warns Biden patience is wearing thin.”
      Soon this BS is going to have to be dealt with or “We the People” lose the USA.
      It’s lunacy and American culture is being destroyed piece by piece by the left.

      • A brief history of Chicago and festivities:

        When I was a tween or teenager they had “Chicagofest” on Navy pier.
        We snuck there when we were in Jr high on the train from the western suburbs.
        Saw The Scorpions and Cheap Trick before The Scorpions hit it big.
        That morphed into Taste of Chicago which ended on July 3rd or 4th depending on the year. Approaching our 20’s we would bring Styrofoam coolers loaded with beer and assorted alcohol to Grant Park. We would go on the last night for the fireworks on the Lake.

        In our 30’s most of us were married or getting married, we now had money, homes and boats. We would launch at 31st Street Harbor.

        We watched the fireworks from out in the Lake BUT every drunken idiot was out there on the water. They didn’t even have a clue on what the lights on the front mean.
        Green/red doesn’t matter when you are smashed.

        Stopped going downtown about a decade ago, kids are growing up, want to see the kids grow up, don’t want to die watching fireworks and be floating.
        Way too many drunks on the water, saw someone crash into a break wall at about 35 MPH, no survivors. We even lit it up with a spotlight, they never slowed down.

        As for Taste of Chicago there are far too many gangbangers and Grant Park is a GFZ.
        Now it’s fun in the suburbs, my town has their fireworks from a golf-course that’s a couple of blocks from my house, it’s usually a pretty big party in a gated subdivision.
        The neighboring town has there show the following night so we drive out there, park and watch from a soccer field. No “real” gangbangers and most of us have CCW or CCL permits. Some suburban punks on occasion but they aren’t usually what you would consider dangerous but in the last 5 years the attitudes have changed.

        These stupid punks will jump out in front of your vehicle not realizing that if you aren’t paying attention they are going to get mowed down. A couple of SUVs with 8 people in each makes for 16 witnesses. The kids family is going to try and go after you. When 16 people say “Your kid literally jumped in front of the Yukon” that crap stops.
        There is dumb and there is suicidal, if I had some alcohol in me there would be a couple of dead kids.

        Enter vacation houses on the Mississippi. A whole weekend of fun w/o any of the Chicago BS. Sure you drive 4 or 5 hours away but it’s worth it. Boat is winched in a boathouse until we get there in the spring, winch it out of the water in the late fall and winterize it. During the spring and summer dock it in the boathouse when nobody’s there.

        Forget Chicago.

        • so this is all your fault.
          the scorps didn’t know why everyone was shouting “coho!”
          they weren’t checking i.d.’s at the wine kiosks.
          sex under the blues stage bleachers.

  9. There’s been a lot of dead gangsters in Chi-town. And yet, there doesn’t seem to be any shortage of scvmbags in Mayor Lightbrain’s People’s Republic. Better get busy, gangsters. Or if you start a Go Fund Me to switch from Glocks to low yield nukes, count me in.

  10. Imagine that blacks killing Puerto Ricans, oh wait they kill blacks, whites and Asians too.. they are the racists.. Lightfoot is a race baiting racist p.o.s…

  11. This POS MAYOR and Governor should be charged with conspiracy to murder, murder, aiding and abetting and sentenced to life with n prison with no chance of parole, or the death penalty.
