October has been one of the most violent months this year in the city of Chicago: This weekend, four were killed and 32 were wounded during a Indian Summer-like weekend.
The deaths occurred on Friday and Sunday, but Chicago was lucky that even more didn't die on Sunday as there were nearly as many shootings on that one day (18 incidents) alone as both Friday and Saturday combined (21 shootings). Sunday, of course, had the nicest temperatures.
The first two deaths occurred on Friday at 10 PM and 11:30 PM: Denzell Franklin, 23, and Charles Wright, 39.
The other pair of deaths occurred on Sunday. In one case, Marc Williams, 17, was shot by an unknown assailant who walked up behind him on the street and opened fire without warning.
Also, a 36-year-old man was found dead on the street by police in the Pilsen neighborhood.

A farmer won ten million dollars in the state lottery. A reporter asked him what he was going to do with it. He replied, "I guess I will keep on farming until it's gone."
That's the real cause of depression, not pesticides.
