A horrific shootout outside a funeral home on Chicago's South Side Tuesday night wounded at least 14 people, police said, in the latest chapter of violence gripping the big city.
"All we saw was just bodies laying everywhere," witness Arnita Gerder told WMAQ. "Shot up everywhere, all over. Legs, stomach, back, all over the place. We thought it was a war out here."
The shooting came a day after more than 20 people were shot Monday and after a deadly weekend in which 63 people were shot and 12 were killed.
On Monday, President Trump vowed to send federal forces into the city amid a spike in violent crime. Local leaders have pushed back on the plan, arguing it exceeds the authority of the federal government.
“Under no circumstances will I allow Donald Trump’s troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents," she wrote.

Just looked at that idiots Wiki page, she has been a part of the Liberal bureaucracy in Chicago for almost 20 years before being elected mayor.
Obviously this is business as usual for her, “Ah it’s just some kids with guns, they will grow out of it”
So my questions are, Can Trump veto or something? What if he just flips the bird at Chicago leaders and sends troops anyway?
