Who could have predicted this? A gun-fight breaks out at the funeral for a black thug gangster. The result? Two more dead gangsters. Sounds like a good day in Chicago, to me. If the families were smart, they’d just pile all three bodies into one mass grave and call it a day.
Via the Chicago Tribune:
Shots rang out, causing panic and chaos as hundreds of mourners were leaving a Catholic church on the South Side following funeral services Monday for a slain reputed gang member.
As people scattered for exits, a woman knocked Deborah Echols-Moore, 59, to the floor and fell atop her. Her shoes were thrown off her feet. When she stood back up, she fled barefoot out a door.
“When I came outside, you still can hear shooting. Boom! Boom! Boom! I still ran…people was running behind me,” the longtime CTA employee said not long after the 12:30 p.m. shooting. “You didn’t know which way to go or what to do. All I knew to do was run for my life.”
Chicago police said one man was killed, another critically injured in the bloodshed at St. Columbanus Church. Police identified both as Gangster Disciples members and convicted felons, illustrating once again the high risks of gang membership in a year in which rising homicides have brought Chicago unwanted national attention.
GDs alone make up more than a quarter of the city’s approximately 470 homicide victims. About 60 percent of this year’s homicide victims were gang members, according to department statistics.

No humans involved. Somebody please call the sanitation dept. to take up the trash!
Hispanic gangs here shoot one another over city blocks, black gangs over drug turf and white gangs just shoot? Weis was a sissy about these gangs and McCarthy a little more serious though he’s got an uphill battle…
This sort of barbaric activity only happens because those backward hicks in Chicago insist on making guns so readily available.
If they would just enact some tough gun control laws they wouldn’t have nearly as much violence there.
Oh, wait …
Never mind.
Nice joke but I agree with you a 100 % that these gun laws in my town don’t amount to a bag of beans. If only the dem upper echelon realized this, Chicago would be a better place. The way it is now – politicos
, judges 
and of course gangbangers – carry concealed guns around but the average law-abiding citizen has to jump through hoops to get licensed.
One, don’t attend funerals of gangbangers.
Two, why is the church even giving these thugs church burials? A shooting in a church?
These gang funerals are always a chance for these assholes to preen. Two gangbangers were killed but next time it probably be some old lady.
The Rev. Corey Brooks spoke at the funeral for James Holman, 32, of Chicago, who was shot to death in an apparent gang-related shooting Nov. 19 in the 6000 block of South Michigan Avenue.
This asshole is running for JJJ’s recently vacated seat. Why is a man running for office giving an eulogy at a thug’s funeral? They are all in bed with each other in that shithole of a city.
Is he the same hopeful that was a convicted pedophile? Or is that a different candidate who is putting his name in the hat to replace the criminal JJJ?
No, this is a different guy. Mel Reynolds is the guy who did prison time for child porn.
It’s not really a shithole astute Sir. Every urban area has its problems and my town, unfortunately, has to deal with all this BS caused by dem liberal policiies . Other than that, my town is actually livable. Visit us sometime…
I grew up there. It was a shit hole then and it’s a bigger shit hole now. I wouldn’t go back if you paid me.
