Not to sound like a complete ###hole, but isn't that basically every other day in Chicago? In August, Chicago has six mass shootings in ONE weekend.

A vast majority of the shootings in Chicago occur on the south side and in the furthest western parts of Chicago. This one is different because it occurred in the downtown or near-downtown area, where shootings are very rare.

Trolls? Trolls and deranged citizens with the capability of massacring human beings aren't the same thing.

You maybe didn't mean it that way, but it's a really troubling trend on social and traditional media in recent years to equate truly deranged individuals to angry people on the internet that feel emboldened to kill as many people as possible.


Yes, mentally ill people are likely being pushed to commit violent acts by current political climates, but it's not otherwise normal people and internet trolls, it's still sociopaths and other ill people.

Unless you were talking about America's collective inability to deal with their gin problems, then I agree.
