Seven people, including two teenagers, were shot at laundromat on the South Side of Chicago Monday night.
Chicago Fire spokesman Larry Langford said the seven shot included a 14-year-old and a 16-year-old boy. Police said the others shot ranged in age from the 20s to the 50s.
"Four of them we found in the laundromat not far from the door," Langford said. "The others we found on the street."

Matthew Gills, 33, a construction worker, lives across the street from where the shooting occurred. He was at home when he heard about 19 shots.
"It's too dangerous to let my kids play around the neighborhood," Gills said.
"That's all it is is gangs. Gangs, gangs, gangs, gangs, gangs. I don't even want to be in Chicago because it's too dangerous."

It appears these people were shot just to be shot. The "empathy" trait is a learned behavior at a very young age nurtured by close, normal families. As society drifts away from close, normal families with constant interactions towards dysfunction with zero interactions, this is the result.

There is no turning back. Toddlers and young children fending for themselves on a daily basis and being raised by a TV, internet and video games to keep them "occupied" because the "adult" is too busy will never learn empathy. We see the outcome in the news every single day. Sociopaths. Psychopaths...
