Gun violence continues, unabated.
Taking a page from Helen Shiller's 'how to deal with crime' playbook, Joe Moore remains silent.
I hate it when the media refers to it as gun violence. If they were beating someone with a bat, it wouldn't be called bat violence.
Trying to confirm. Alleged shooting in 24 last night. Person was hit according to witness. (Thursday, 8ish)
Torched Land Rover last night on the corner of Albion and Ashland.
Land Rover was parked in a tow zone. Harsh.
