A Chicago rapper was gunned down in a hail of bullets moments after he walked out of jail and had been fitted for an ankle bracelet, reports said. When 31-year-old Londre Sylvester left Cook County Jail just before 9 p.m. Saturday, gunmen got out of two parked cars and shot him 64 times, according to a police report obtained by the Chicago Tribune. Two women were also injured in the ambush — a 60-year old woman who’d just posted Sylvester’s bond and a 35-year-old woman who worked at the jail, CWBChicago said. Sylvester rapped locally as KTS Dre and had tattooed KTS on his neck alongside a

How much time does it take to unload a minimum of 64 bullets? Outside of a jail where there's police.

I wonder if "Rappers" can get life insurance? Seems to be quite the hazardous profession.

This fellow gets out of jail, is required to wear a tracking device, is shot 64 times, and is characterized as a "rapper." Who knew being a rapper was such a dangerous occupation! It is a good thing that Chicago has tough gun laws or he might have been shot 70 times. Al Capone smiles.

Poster #8 just beat me to it.
I'm appalled at how brazen the white supremacists have become. They no longer hide in the shadows - - or under sheets. They come right out into the open - - to execute innocent black men. No person of color is safe - - if the white supremacists are allowed to run wild like this. All guns owned by whites must be confiscated - - NOW!
Lori Lightfoot - - do your job!

"Kill to survive" is what his "KTS" neck tattoo stood for. Some gangbangers, likely not fans of his rapping, took his ink literally and dumped several full magazines on him, which can be bad for the health. KTS Dre: Fitted for an ankle monitor one minute at the jail, full of Pb the next minute outside. Whew. Dangerous business, that rapping. "See me walking with a limp, that's my gun walk...."

Lemme see if I understand this. He was shot 64 times - but they had to take him to a taxpayer-subsidized hospital in a taxpayer-subsidized ambulance to pronounce him dead? They couldn’t TELL?

Every other black thug - dead or alive - seems to be a rapper. Is that a real job or can they just not speak English?

Rapper by definition means dead meat. A rapper is someone who thinks they have talent, but never bothered to put in the work to learn how to write music, or play and instrument. They did put in the work to create the hands gestures associated with rap. Try getting your fingers to do some of those hand signs sometime while pumping your arms up and down like your using an old air pump. It's difficult and watch out you don't break your fingers trying.

CWBChicago, the organization who did such stellar work in fully exposing Jussie Smollett, has the best crime reporting on Chicago. It is what they do. And well.
Their account of this incident is here, along with this guy’s rap sheet. He undoubtedly had amassed a raft of enemies during his career as a “habitual armed felon”. The woman hit outside the jail (not the woman who posted bail) is a social worker who is apparently located outside the jail. So much for social workers in the criminal justice system.

Its cultural. Don't knock it. The obvious solution to this kind of behavior must be fewer police, don'tcha know.
Does lead set off metal detectors? Definite acute case of lead poisoning.
Does the 'mayor' of Chicago have anything to say? Its all racist!!!

Black Rapper shot 64 times by Black shooters. How will Mayor Lori Lightfoot blame this on evil White Supremacy or systematic racism? It has nothing to do with White Supremacy or racism. It has everything to do with a permissive Black culture where shooting each other is a common place occurrence and accepted as normal. KTS Dre dies as he rapped, in the subculture that his music celebrated and glorified.

Re #2's inquiry.....there are 32-34 round magazines readily available for many different handguns, so two guys could each have dumped one mag. Firing as fast as you can pull the trigger, one mag dump can take around 10 seconds. Both shooters firing simultaneously.....done in 10 seconds or so, very doable.

An interesting statistic from another article regarding Mr. Sylvester noted that the homicide rate fell 20% for June the year before. While the amount of lead flying around the Windy City isn't diminishing the accuracy seem to be going up. Only two non-target wounds in all that shooting. I think Chicagoans must be spending more time at the range.

What a waste of ammo. They should practice more.
Think how much money they saved taxpayers. When is their turn so we don't have to pay for their trial ?
