Antonio Smith Jr. was gunned down August 20 and on Monday, Tyshawn Lee was shot multiple times in Chicago’s Southside
On August 20, Antonio Smith, 9, was found shot multiple times on a Chicago Southside concrete slab just a few feet from railroad tracks that have long served as the dividing line between two rival gang factions. Jabari Williams, 22, Derrick Allmon, 19, Michael Baker, 19 and Paris R. Denard, 19, all belonging to a faction of the Gangster Disciples, were arrested and charged with Antonio’s murder.
The four thugs had driven up in two cars and were getting ready to shoot two rival gang members when they believed that Antonio was warning their intended targets.
On Monday afternoon, Tyshawn Lee, 9, was walking down a Southside alley on the way from school to his grandmother’s home when he was shot multiple times in the head and body. Police believe his father was a street gang member and the shooting was in retaliation for the shooting of two rival gang members last month.
Neither Antonio nor Tyshawn were affiliated with a gang.
The Southside community, as well as all of Chicago, is in an uproar over the deliberate targeting of the two 9-year-olds.
Hey folks, come on now, don’t get your poopies all riled up. This is America, land of the free! If a bunch of gangbangers want to gun down some 9-year-old boys, they ought to be free to do so. God bless America!

Maybe the FBI and the DOJ should investigate. No, that won't work, it is OK if black folks kill black folks, it is only bad if white cops kill black folks. My bad.
