A son is dead and his father seriously injured after they shot each other during an argument over walking the dog.

Chicago Police said the shooting happened in the city's South-Side Burnside neighborhood on Sunday morning.

Donald Johnson, 22, was shot multiple times and died. His father, who is 43, was also shot multiple times. The father was hospitalized in fair condition on Sunday night.

Neighbors and community activists were frustrated.

"How did we get here? How did we get to the point where 'I hate my blood family enough to take his life'? It makes no sense," said community activist Ja'mal Green.

Green said that there is so much pain in Chicago's troubled neighborhoods that even the most trivial interactions can explode.

How did we get here? Are you dense? Family killing family is a new trend in this world, is it?

Cain and Abel. Any chance that rings a bell? Hayzoos Kristo!

I could never shoot my child. Just couldn't do it.

Too bad. They were both just turning their lives around and were planning on attending medical school together.

Ya, this is the root cause of the problem.
The morals instilled in these people has nothing to do with it at all.
Give me a break.

It's Chicago's fault.

The only positive to come out of this is they didn't shoot the dog.

Oh damn!

Too bad they didn't have the dog equipped with a cam to record the event. Now that I think about it, the dog had to be going, "WTF?"

Somehow I don't believe that the dog was really the issue here...

Dog jus be chillin'.

Dog do nuffin'.

Quit dissin da dog!

Well, it's cold in Chicago, so first they would have to put a sweater on it. . . This was going to end in blood one way or the other.

Ah, so it's "The Man's" fault. You know, for causing all this 'pain.' Not the decades of liberal political rule/policies and the total disintegration of the family unit and traditional family values. Always gotta transfer blame, you know.

Anytime you see "community activist" in a story, you know it won't end well.

+1

Perhaps the last straw in a bitter relationship.

It would not be the first Chicago Father and Son who are/were members of the same gang.

The press loves this stuff: "Nine people kill each other over a pack of chewing gum!"

Uh huh

You can bet your bottom dollar that it started long before these two shot each other. Long, long before.

I'm sorry but I laughed out loud when I read the thread title. That's how little I care about stupid "people" I guess.

I guess this REALLY proves the statement that some people just shouldn't own a dog!

I feel bad for the dog.
