another shooting at that bar in bucktown, the one i talked about and you thought i was either making up or exaggerating.

[buddha]

after the last shooting, the cops had dedicated patrols in the neighborhood late at night and were consistently towing cars and making sure nobody was there.  then they ran out of money for the operation and left.

lo and behold, another shooting happens when theyre not around.  who knew?

Good job chasing me around with this. Stay classy, brah.

I said neither that you were making it up nor did I say that you were exaggerating, so you obviously believe you can read my mind, which, actually, doesn't surprise me about you.

Be sure you get one of the new Divvy bikes to ride when you’re here. Here I am on my own bike, pushing hard to maintain 16 or so MPH, huffing and puffing, sweating my ass off, and I still routinely get passed up by middle-aged ladies out on a Sunday ride on these newer-model Divvys, not even breaking a sweat. Makes me question my very existence when that happens.

I was just trying to help and in a way paying a complement.  

Years ago I saw a saying that stuck with me.   It was:

"Ignorance can be educated and Mental illness can be medicated

but you can't fix stupid."

I learn new things everyday so I thought I would help some of you learn something to help you in the future.

Charming.

Exactly right.

It is absolutely crucial in the beginning aftermath of these shootings we properly identify the firearm used.
