Chicago: Epic Gun Control Fail

Robert Farago - comments No comments

Yesterday, Chicago criminals shot and killed six of their own. If Windy City gang bangers use gats to reduce four more people to room temperature today (Sunday) the city will surpass its previous weekend firearms-related homicide record (set last August): nine people killed and 37 wounded. This in the city with some of America’s most onerous gun control laws, in the only state in these here United that prohibits legal concealed carry. And yet the Powers That Be reckon that they need more civilian disarmament to disarm the bad guys. That’s like saying mandatory chastity belts will stop prostitution. Or something like that.

  1. Sen. Bye’s excuse for surfing facebook during the hearings is that she wasn’t on that working group. Although there was an agreement that none of the committee members would offer testimony to the various working groups, she still spoke.

    I was there for the whole thing, and the pro-2A side outnumbered the anti-2A side by a large margin.

    And the metal detectors that were there yesterday were not there for this morning’s Mental Health working group.

    Battlespace Preparation.
