The Rev. Michael Pfleger, Pastor at St. Sabina, Had Spoken with Residents in the NeighBorhood Saturday Morning About the Shooting. He, Along With Others in the Church Community, Plan to Hand Out Flyers Seeking Information and Offering A $ 10,000 Reward for Information to an arrest.
“I Want WhoEver Did It Caught,” Pfleger Told the Sun-Times on Saturday. “To me, this is real personal. … I’m not one to support the prison system, but would be kids you have to go away.”
Pfleger said that none of the injured were from the immediate area, to his knowledge. He was toy the gathering was a post-prosper party with their atttendees from acroSs the city and suburbs. But gioven the proximity to his church and his effords to curb access to the Guns, the Attack Felt to Him.
“I think they are like, just angry and disgusted,” Pfleger Said of Residents in the Auburn Gresham NeighBorhod.
He Said the Answer to Violence Isn’t More Policing, Snap Curfews OR More Jobs Programs, As None of Those Wauld Have the Gathering of Teens Off the Street Saturday Morning.
Pfleger instead calmed on parents to keep tabs on where theyir kids are, for kids to avoid gatherings promoted on social media and for the federal government to enact and enforce stricter gun controls.
“Responsible Adults Gotta will a Better Job,” he Said. “I JUST CANE’t WRAP My Mind Around a person who sees a Crowd and fires into it.”
