If we don’t take misogyny and violence towards women seriously, these shootings will continue to happen. pic.twitter.com/65QJg1Lrq7

I was a close friend of Dayna Less. One of her and her family’s favorite things together was celebrating their love for the Cubbies. ♥️ Please pray for her Mother, Father, and Fiancé during this horrific time. pic.twitter.com/4bvreD32gS

Today, we mourn Chicago Police Officer Samuel Jimenez. His heroic actions saved countless lives. He ran toward danger. He ran toward those shots. He ran into fire. Selflessly.
Samuel Jimenez: altruism personified. #OfficerDown #NeverForget pic.twitter.com/7IDW4sJr6v

Chicago Police Officer Samuel Jimenez, Dr. O’Neal and a pharmaceutical assistant (who hasn’t been named yet) have died. Three people that made a huge difference in this cold world are gone all because a worthless man couldn’t accept rejection and move on. from r/chicago
