OK, so this is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but …

An estimated 123 people were shot and killed over the summer. That’s nearly double the number of soldiers killed in Iraq over the same time period.

In May, cbs2chicago.com began tracking city shootings and posting them on Google maps. Information compiled from our reporters, wire service reports and the Chicago Police Major Incidents log indicated that 123 people were shot and killed throughout the city between the start of Memorial Day weekend on May 26, and the end of Labor Day on Sept. 1.

According to the Defense Department, 65 soldiers were killed in combat in Iraq. About the same number were killed in Afghanistan over that same period.

In the same time period, an estimated 245 people were shot and wounded in the city.

If you haven’t already, it’s time to start educating yourself in the political arena … so that when you hear someone start spouting whatever political banter they spout, you can stand firm in your facts and principles and be able to say, “whatever, you’re full of it” and retort with being educated, or you can say, “yep, that’s exactly right” and agree through education of facts and principles.

here’s a video of Glenn Beck, one of the top political and historical educators and commentators around.
