U trećem najvećem gradu SAD-a, Čikagu, desila se serija pucnjava koja je rezultirala najmanje sedam smrtnih i 38 povređenih. Poštovanje ovog broja žrtava, predsednik SAD Donalda Tramp je ponovno pozvao na vojnu intervenciju, izražavajući frustraciju prema guverneru Ilinoisa Džej Bi Prickera, koji je do sada odbijao njegove prijedloge. Ovo incident je postao centar pažnje medija i političkih analiza, jer pokazuje duboko raspoloženje u vezi sa kriminalom i upotrebljivanjem vojske u urbani okolini.
Dogodilo se od petka uveče, kada je na jednoj čikaškoj ulici započela serija pucnjava. Preliminarne informacije policije ukazuju da je bilo najmanje dvadesetak pucnjava, a među poginulima su bili 21-godišnjak pogođen u grudi, 18-godišnji mladić i 50-godišnji muškarac. Prema saopštenju policije, najmanje 12 ljudi je dobilo prostrelne rane, dok je još jedan muškarac imao nepoznate povrede i odbio medicinsku pomoć. Povređeni su prebačeni u četiri bolnice, što pokazuje ozbiljnost situacije.
Tramp je, kako je saopšteno, objavio na svojoj društvenoj mreži Truth Social, da "zašto me guverner Pricker ne zove u pomoć?" i dodao da bi mogao "da učini Čikago bezbednim gradom za jedan mesec, a za jednu godinu, bio bi jedan od najbezbednijih". Ova deklaracija je pokazala njegovu frustraciju prema lokalnom vladaru, koji je više puta odbijao njegove pozive na vojnu intervenciju. Kancelarija guvernera Prickera, potencijalnog demokratskog kandidata za predsedničke izbore 2028. godine, nije se oglasila, što je dodalo više kontroverze oko situacije.
Tramp je naredio raspoređivanje trupa Nacionalne garde u gradovima u kojima su demokrate na vlasti, uključujući Nju Orleans, Vašington i Memfis u Tenesiju. Ovo je pokazalo njegovu strategiju da koristi vojsku kao sredstvo za smanjenje kriminala, što je u suprotnosti sa pristupom drugih političara. Meditacija o tome je pokazala različite stavove u političkom spektru – neki su podržavali njegovu akciju, dok su drugi kritikovali upotrebu vojske u urbani okolini.
Podaci policijske uprave Čikage pokazuju blagi porast broja pucnjava u poređenju sa prvom polovinom prošle godine, ali stope nasilnog kriminala su opadale tokom poslednjih nekoliko godina, paralelno sa nacionalnim trendovima. Ovo pokazuje da je problem kriminala u gradu kompleksan i dugoročan, a da je vojna intervencija samo jedan od mogućih alata za rešavanje. Međutim, Trampov pristup je ostvario pažnju, jer je pokazao da je problem u vezi sa političkim strukturama i upotrebljivanjem resursa.
S obzirom na trenutnu situaciju, očekuje se da će se dalje razvijati debata o upotrebi vojske u urbani okolini, a da će se istražiti efikasnost takvih interventi. Guverner Pricker može biti pod pritiskom da odgovori na Trampove navode, posebno ako se situacija pogorša. Umešanje državnih institucija i političkih lidera može doprineti stabilizaciji, ali takođe može izazvati dodatne konflikte. Ovo incident u Čikagu je postao simbol šireg problema kriminala i političke reakcije na njega.

BlicIndependentRight12 days ago At least 7 dead and 38 injured in Chicago Trump infuriated: "Why doesn't the governor call me for help?! I could make the city safe in a month!"At least seven people were killed and 38 injured in a series of shootings in Chicago over the weekend, according to local police. The incident has prompted US President Donald Trump to once again call for military intervention in the city, claiming he could make Chicago safe within a month. Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, questioning why Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker had not reached out for assistance. Pritzker, a potential Democratic presidential candidate in 2028, has previously rejected Trump's calls for military involvement. The governor's office has not yet responded to these claims. While there has been a slight increase in the number of shootings compared to the first half of last year, overall violent crime rates have declined in Chicago over the past few years, aligning with national trends. Preliminary reports indicate at least 20 shootings occurred on Friday afternoon, including an incident where two individuals opened fire from a vehicle after a car stopped. Several victims were taken to hospitals, while one man refused medical attention.
