Black On Black Crime Epidemic – Five Black Teens Shot in Chicago While Filming Rap Video in Park – One Dead

5 related black teenagers were shot and 1 black teen, Damond Dawson, who went by the name “Thugga”, was killed by a couple other black people while filming themselves rapping in the park.

“People out here just shooting people, other kids, for no reason. It doesn’t mean anything to them but ‘oh yeah, let’s get this person.’ … They don’t have no concern for life anymore.

This type of shooting is EXACTLY what the Democrats like and try and protect, because it hives them two attacks against conservatives.

Attack one: Democrats will use all shootings to try and make the case that guns are evil, and need to be banned in the United States.
Attack two: Black people are at risk of crime and violence and need more free handouts to protect them.

Many racist black people, like those in the so-called “Black Lives Matter” group of losers will even try and tell you that the out-of-control black on black violence is just a myth, and not reality, but anyone with eyes, ears, and half a fucking brain knows that is a lie.

Damond Dawson was “goofing around” with his brother and other relatives and friends, rapping and shooting video in Foster Park when two gunmen opened fire early Tuesday, killing Dawson and wounding four others, according to police and relatives.

“Basically like an ambush,” said Dawson’s aunt, Angela Mathis-Tate, 44. “One coming west of the park and one coming south.”

The shooting happened around 2:20 a.m. as Dawson, 23, and a small group were “rapping around (taking) selfies with their phones” at Foster Park at 1440 W. 84th St, according to relatives.

Dawson was shot once in the back of the head and collapsed in the middle of the park, between a building and a playground. He was pronounced dead on the scene.

A 19-year-old woman was shot twice in the groin area and was taken in serious condition to Advocate Christ Medical Center. Three other men took themselves to the same hospital: a 20-year-old man shot nine times in the leg and shoulder, a 25-year-old man grazed in the leg and an 18-year-old man grazed in the back. Their conditions were stabilized.

The men are all related, according to Mathis-Tate. Dawson’s brother was shot, and the other two men are brothers who are Dawson’s second cousins.

“They were very close,” Mathis-Tate said. “It was like they were all brothers. They just hung out together, go to parties together, go to clubs.”

Some witnesses said the group was staging a party scene for a video titled “Two Tecs and a 50 Shot,” but Mathis-Tate said they were just having some fun in the park.

“He was really, you know, just goofing around, playing like he could rap a little bit,” she said. “He wasn’t no rapper. He was a newcomer just trying to say some lyrics.” He sometimes went by the name “Thugga,” according to family and friends.

Foster Park is trouble at night when gang members feud with those on the other side of Ashland Avenue, Mathis-Tate said.

“It’s always drama up there. Nothing but drama … I told my nephew, please don’t be going up to that park,” she said. “They say, ‘We’re not, we’re not,’ and that’s what they always tell us.”

The area is particularly dangerous for young men, she said.

“It’s a good neighborhood for kids, not teenagers,” she said. “It’s not good for boys 13 through their 30s. Maybe even 40s. These guys, it’s madness. It has finally struck my home.”

Mathis-Tate and her sister, Dawson’s mother, went to Advocate Christ Medical Center hoping Dawson had survived. When they found out his body was still at the park, his mother froze.

“She wasn’t blinking, she wasn’t saying anything,” Mathis-Tate said. “I said, ‘You’ve got to get strong, you’ve got to get strong.'”

She was so distraught that they called a doctor out from the hospital to make sure she was OK. “She was going into shock,” Mathis-Tate said. “She’s got six boys, and now she’s only got five.”

Dawson was a “loving nephew” who didn’t bother anyone, Mathis-Tate said.

“People out here (are) just shooting people, other kids, for no reason,” she said. “It doesn’t mean anything to them but ‘oh yeah, let’s get this person.’ … They don’t have no concern for life anymore.”

At least eight other people were wounded in shootings on the West and South sides from midmorning Monday through early Tuesday, police said.
