| #3 When the shooter turns the gun and becomes a shootee, does that count in the tally? Does the fetus? Jealous ex 'shoots dead his estranged pregnant wife, 28, and her new boyfriend, 35, at soccer tournament where her two children were playing, before turning the gun on himself in murder suicide' Is this 3 or 4? I'm so confused. |

| #2 According to HeyJackass, a person gets popped in Chicago every two minutes. Murder is a bit slower paced with one every 11 minutes. Luckily, these incidents are not evenly distributed across the city but are concentrated in certain neighborhoods. Otherwise, the cops would be wanting mileage for driving all over town. (for those playing along at home, the weekend total was 12 killed, 63 wounded for a fairly typical k/w ratio of 0.19) |
