The DC shootings were mostly random; are most Chicago shootings random? If not then I don't think it is a fair comparison.
I'm not arguing for or against your reasoning, but I know I would be more worried about infrequent random shootings than I would be about frequent targeted shootings, mostly because I believe I'm no one's target.
