The violence just keeps marching on in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s city of Chicago.

Between Monday and Tuesday of this week, fifteen people were shot in America’s third largest city. As of this writing, two of them have died.

This kind of rampant violence has become the norm in Chicago. There is little reporting and scant outrage over the out-of-control violence from Lightfoot’s mismanaged city.

NBC Chicago had a mundane announcement that seven people were shot and wounded on Monday, and the Chicago Times had a small blurb about the eight people getting shot on Tuesday.

In short, these shootings have become every day events in Chicago.

Even the incompetent mayor herself has had a safety scare last week. A man accused of stalking Lightfoot was arrested last Wednesday after allegedly firing a weapon as police trailed him just over a mile from the mayor’s home. Joseph Igartua, 37, was charged with three felony counts of stalking and another for reckless discharge of a firearm, according to the Cook County state’s attorney’s office.

Chicago’s former schools chief Arne Duncan attacked the Lightfoot administration’s crime record last month, charging that “misguided policies” have left the Chicago Police Department “in crisis” and police officers “exhausted.”

In 2020, Mayor Lightfoot significantly decreased the amount of tax dollars for the city’s police department, though she denied she was meeting the call to “defund the police.” Following many well-publicized waves of violence in the city, Lightfoot’s 2022 budget increased police spending to $1.9 billion from 2021’s $1.7 billion, according to Newsweek.

Monday and Tuesday’s violence follows a weekend during which 24 people were shot in Lightfoot’s Chicago, five of them fatally.

The Sun-Times reports that 81 people have been murdered in Chicago so far in 2022.
