#2 Kinda quiet weekend. Folks spending their stimulus checks instead of out hustling and shooting.

#4 Chicago weekend reporting is not officially over.

Per our favorite mayhem aggregator, "8:00p Peaceful Tally: 4 killed, 21 wounded"

That leaves 4 more hours of uncollected data.

#5 /\ The additional 4 hours of tabulation is encouraging. Keep in mind however, these figures only represent known or reported shootings. Non-firearms related violence and death could boost the casualty figures significantly.

The culling fields? Book or movie title? Probably not.

#7 The answer of course is more gun control.

#8 ^ Well, yeah. Better control would turn some of those wounded numbers to kills.

#11 Weather is supposed to be fairly good for most of the weekend, TB2898.

Your wheel numbering doesn't go high enough.

#12 It should be OK if it only counts deaths.

#13 ^ for shootings, add two digits (per the SteveSailer rule)

#15 

I can't repeat this enough.

Chicago has one of the RESTRICTIVE set of Gun Control laws of any US City of the books.

All the laws have done is DISARM Citizens not criminals.
