Someone just got shot on my block

Oh man, I feel bad, I can't wait for you to get out of there.

I actually noticed that credit where its due, but at the same time stupidity and dumb crimes are at an all time high.

Yeah me neither thanks for you guys' concern. I appreciate it.

Well that sucks. Like I said though, it doesn't seem to be a crater like Detroit or South Central LA. I think it's firmly in New York's tier. Lol.

Awesome. ^_^ That's all I ever ask. If someone wants to tell me why they're pro-gun without proclaiming their view to be right or wrong, I'll respect that as well. I'm pretty good at empathizing with both sides of a fence. I just wish more people did the same. Too many forget their opinion isn't fact, and that not everybody thinks like they do.

YOu think that's bad? Try living in a town where the military has shoot out with cartel members

@SuperStar_sketcher: Woah. Is the shooting in North Philly? And feel sorry for you.

@kgb725: LOL, you must be joking.

"the city celebrates when they go a day without a murder."

LMAO, we do NOT celebrate every time someone isn't murdered. I don't know where you got that from as you're obviously not from here, but that's just a load of BS.

"The city is so bad they named it Chiraq themselves."

Once again, you're wrong. We did not name it Chiraq ourselves, that name don't know where you got this rom either. It's a f*cked up nickname that is both inaccurate and rude that's offensive to both Iraq and Chicago.

"One of the most dangerous cities in America."

No, it's one of the largest. And with large populations comes larger death tolls. A house with five people in it isn't going to have as many deaths as the one with 100.

Man, I do love to see what some people think of us that don't live here, ridiculous.

made me miss my dictatorship days

You live in mexico? Tell me more (if you dont mind)

You can buy Tazers online...

That sucks. I'm glad I live in a small town where everyone is pretty much responsible with their guns.

Hope you're able to get out of that neighborhood asap.

@jaken7 said:

No Cersei Lannister gif? I'm genuinely dissapointed.

Yep, only a matter of time.

We all own them, but tazers dont mean anything from 5 ft away

Sorry to hear that

@The_Deathstroker: Even people that live in Chicago call it Chiraq and im not even talking about the every day citizens. I mean they dont celebrate but their pretty happy when they go without. And what makes you think you know my opinion of it

If he lived in Chicago and talked about someone getting shot, he'd filled up an entire page everyday.

LOL sounds accurate.

@smashbrawler: I was on my phone! I know it would've been perfect. :/

In Mexico, it's part of our culture to get shot.

@kgb725:

"Even people that live in Chicago call it Chiraq"

No, we don't. Every single person I know hates that nickname, but like I said you're not from Chicago like I am so you just know what's on the news and the bigots it comes with.

" and im not even talking about the every day citizens."

What?

"I mean they dont celebrate but their pretty happy when they go without."

Wouldn't every city be happy if they went a day without someone being shot? And I've lived in Chicago my whole life, and have yet to see a day that there was no crime so I don't know where you got this info from.

"And what makes you think you know my opinion of it"

What as you talking about? I broke your comments up piece by piece and addressed each thing, what you said in each comment is your opinion of it (All your opinions are wrong, mind you).

@SuperStar_sketcher: Not accurate.

Sounds like your in a bad location you gotta get out of there, I know easier said then done but you gotta work to get out of whatever hood your living in where people are always getting shot.

@SuperStar_sketcher: I'm so sorry for your neighbor and brother.

How old are you? Cause you got to get out of there man. Ghettos are dangerous.

Violent crime is a reality, if you don't change your environment then I can't really feel any extended sympathy for your situation.

Stay safe comrade

@oosupermanthathoeoo: that wasnt the purpose of this thread...bealive me I have loads of crap going on with my family thats super sad. no no i just needed a venting session and to get the poor girl's screams for help out of my head. And its crazy how after all of that the cops didnt show up and her family had to take her to the hospital by car. So my bro getting shot was the tip of the ice burg, i, have seen/heard tons of craziness in my short life ranging from gun shots to decapitations to buldings blowing up with ppl in them, to top it off i was born in detorit so yeah this isnt a pity party here. Because i know even with all of the crazy sh!t i have been exposed to there wayyyy more people out there less fortunate then I.

@The_Deathstroker: j.k

Not everyone is in a position to leave dangerous neighborhoods.

@SuperStar_sketcher: Funny how last week, someone got shot at the end of the street near where I live. Poor bastard was chilling on a nearby bar until two men dragged him out and shot him four times in the face. That was an execution since the man was reported to be a snitched who gave away someone too dangerous...

@oosupermanthathoeoo:

ouch... That's A Bit Harsh. I Agree. But It's Easier Said Than Done..

@The_Deathstroker: So you know every single person in Chicago ? Of course a city would be happy to he free of crime but I never said that.

That sucks, but let that motivate you to work hard and GTFO of that neighborhood

Chiraq

Yep, no room for failure.

Yeah man...that's why people don't like police sometimes they are too scared of what will happen if they do, and if they don't...well you know.

"life is just one big sick twisted joke"

-The joker

Man trust me when i say i can relate. Is the police at least of any use there? because its not where I live, hell most of the time the police is responsible for killings.
I was once almost killed by the Russian mafia one day while out for breakfast.
everyday since i was a kid its always killings and bombings on the news, its gotten to the point where i just don't care anymore, I've gotten so used to it, it didn't even phase me when a guy across the street from my office got murdered, hell 10 minutes after hearing the news i went out with my co-workers for dinner. None of us gave a damn, people getting shot and killed has just become a part daily life.

I can't remember a time when things weren't this bad. People say we need a real life batman, but i say no, what we need is a punisher.

Man, seriously? I live in Greece and crime rates are going up lately but nothing like what you're dealing with.

D³

Oh my god,that is so horrible.

I just....speechless. Why was your brother shot?

You gotta get outta there,man. Sooner or later,it will have a serious emotional/mental impact on you (not that it hasn't already,but I mean in a way that is going to be detrimental to your health).

Well he was hanging on the porch with one of his 'new' friends. They where out at 2:30 am so it had gotten a bit cold so his 'friend' said "im going in to get a jacket" so he goes in while my brother plays o his phone. Once his friend had gotten his jacket (and gun) he came back out. They talked for a little and then when my brother turned his head he fired on him ( i dont know where he got hit first) 6 times. I honestly dont know what led up to that and my brother blacked out so he didnt either. This all happened in front of my house. We came out to see him laying in the street calling for us with his eyeball out of its socket and his mouth full of blood. if it weren't for my mom's medical training my brother may not have made it. S.m.H. I feel bad for whoever had to go through that man...

@SuperStar_sketcher: Move.

No, seriously, that's the only thing you can do to change anything.

I swore I thought the OP was a troll when he mentioned super_jesus.

Man that sucks man!

bro

heres some advice from the devine

GTFO

@SuperStar_sketcher: I am sorry for your loss.

Don't talk, ever. A Tiger hunting a deer is natural.

What if the victim was your best friend or sibling, perhaps a girlfriend or a parent? Bet you'd feel real shitty about that comment. Do you know how many innocent people die from random shootings? It's a nightmare. Every time someone dies, it causes pain to their loved ones. Show some sympathy.

@kgb725: However many I know, it's more than you, so my stance is much more valid.

"Of course a city would be happy to he free of crime but I never said that."

This makes no sense at all.

I've addressed all your points, spoke as firsthand witness, and all you respond with is this.... Smh.

@The_Deathstroker: It's not.

I never said a city would be completely free of crime you did

@super_buck: Death is just as natural as life. I would rather celebrate someone's life and the time time that we spent than just be sad and mopey. People die from random shootings hell people die from just falling down there is always good in every bad thing that happens

We were close to it but we didnt loose him thank god

But when the bad dosent have to happen then us human beings get pissed. No one wants to be 'sad and mopey' But we cant escape it, its the pain that never goes away. But you are right, Life's too short not to live it because of death.
