@Atul_Gawande Frustrating that this makes national headlines. Chicago's averaged ~2 homicides/day this month and no one bats an eye. -
@benfergvson You've done a nice job here about Chicago homicides. Had no idea how prevalent they are; newspapers out west don't report. -
@inwhiteink No one does... Sad to say, when I read that AP story, my first thought was, "Only three? Why is this newsworthy?"
