“Why Are You Killing Each Other?” Bill Maher Asks On High Chicago Crime Rate

HBO host BillMaher wondered why more people – including celebrities – don’t speak to the devastating crime wave that’s gripped Chicago and led to countless tragic deaths.

The comments came during the most recent episode of “Real Time with Bill Maher” when the well-known commentator delved into the topic of growing violence across the country before zooming in on the Windy City.

“But why isn’t anyone ever talking to, like Chicago, like most of the shootings are young black men killing other young black men,” Maher asked his panel. “Is that not correct?”

“Yeah, that’s correct,” Brown University economist Glenn Loury replied.

“OK, much more than what the cops do,” Maher said. “Why doesn’t anybody talk about that? Why aren’t there, you know, a hundred, giant black celebrities who would have the respect of those people say ‘what are you doing to yourself, why are you killing each other?’”

“I feel like it’s never addressed,” Maher said.

“Chicago has become the new Los Angeles,” a Twitter user commented. “Bill Maher is always spot on. If you haven’t seen his movie Religulous, then you really should. He’s one of the best comedians this country has,” another person wrote.
