Active Shooter At Mercy Hospital In Chicago

[Mr KLC]

Authorities were reporting multiple victims in an “active shooter” attack in the area of Mercy Hospital on the Near South Side that brought out a large police presence Monday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called to near the hospital, 2525 S. Michigan Ave., about 3:20 p.m.


There were “Reports of multiple victims” in the attack, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a tweet.

Fire officials called an emergency medical services Plan II, sending at least 10 ambulances to the scene, because of an “active shooter” situation, a Fire Department spokesman said.

Authorities were warning people to stay out of the area. Fire crews were at the scene.

Son of a gun couldn't wait until the weekend just like everyone else.

It's like Beetlejuice, if you keep saying it the problem goes away.

We don't have a gun problem

See... That was easy?

.....And this is news Why?

Should arm the nurses. Kraken...you guys a good shot?

Arm the doctors too.

Gun free zones are fish in a barrel .

Arm the kids in pediatric oncology too

A good guy with a tank or missle launching drone would have been helpful.

That worked in Chicago, when the security guard was shot when trying to protect patrons at his bar. Get the fukk outta here.

The gun was used illegally in a gun free zone.

The gun is illegal in Chicago.

Chicago has some of the strictest gun control laws in the country.

It's against the law to kill people.

It's against the law to shoot people.

So please in your infinite wisdom explain to me how more laws and/or control would have stopped him?

Funny how these Democratic Liberal run States like Chicago and California have the strictest gun laws but yet both produce probably the highest murder rates in the Country due to gun violence.. Chicago has such a high crime and murder rate problem Trump had to step in..

I find it kinda funny but sad it's always the Republicans that usually have to come in and clean up the shiiit.. Like trying to stop this Sanctuary city crap, step up law enforcement measures, enforce border security, etc.. Where was Obama on these issues?

Folks must adapt to the times and carry at all times

Concealed carry

Then some mean shit in whichever vehicle I am in, usually 47 or 74

It's really simple actually. If you restrict the sale of guns across the whole country then very few people have guns and then very few people have the ability to shoot other people. Then very few people will be shot.

Having a small gun-free zone like a hospital won't work since people can just break the rule and bring guns into it.

Conceal and Carry is a legit law. I fully approve of it..

You have to go thru strict screening big time to get the CC permit.. I wish more people would get their permit to conceal and carry.. It's brilliant and it would probably save lives...

I'm considering getting one myself.. My brother in law has one.. Carries an ankle holster at all times.. He is responsible and went thru the intense screening here in California to get it and carry...

Restricting is too late pal, stop with that dumb shit

Anyone can get whatever they want

300+ million guns but restricting sales now will do something! great idea!!!

comical

Paid $75 for a lifetime permit in Indiana, wherever I go I would say at least 50% are carrying

No reason not to
