Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Claims Shootings Down with Year-over-Year Murders Up

The beauty of being a Democrat in a country where the national media is more interested in owning the Trumptards than holding incompetent liars like Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot accountable is that she can get away with saying shit like this…

“The reality is June over June, we’re seeing a downward trend in both homicides and shootings. … We’re seeing a downward trajectory where other cities are continuing to see a climb.”

While that statistic is accurate, it is also an audacious and deliberately dishonest piece of cherry-picking designed to mislead the public.

Basically, what Lightfoot did was extrapolate 28 days where — when compared to the same 28 days last year — there were fewer murders. However…

“While city statistics in the last 28 days shows a drop from 82 murders in 2020 to 62 this year,” reports WGN, “murders are still up year-to-date over 2020; with 282 in 2021 compared to 269 last year.”

  1. What’s the reason light head? Have your good citizens go back to their old method of slice and dice?

  2. If the left wing media really gave a crap about black lives they’d report on the Black Death rate in democrat run cities

  3. Lightfoot and Biden both light in the head, both on Fantasy Island both need to be impeached they tried to impeach Trump with less.

  4. Admiral Ackbar has zero clue, nor knows not what she speaks. Less doesn’t mean better.

    (look up Ackbar pic on the interwebs Snowflakes. Its a reference to a character from the Star Wars movies_
