Just another peaceful weekend in old Chi-town

How's that gun-free thing going for you?

10 dead, 49 wounded in 46 shootings over the weekend in Chicago

Chicago has one of the strictest gun control laws in the nation; it is almost impossible for anyone to legally own a gun. So as a result of this prohibition of gun ownership, this unilateral disarmament Chicago must be as peaceful, as calm, as safe as well...kindergarten in paradise.

Uhm...no! While law abiding citizens don't own guns and struggle to overturn laws banning them, those who laugh at such niceties as following the law, purchasing guns through authorized dealers and even stopping at stop signs, manage to obtain guns. And they use them in a brutal war being played out in some of Chicago's poorest neighborhoods, including the one so ably organized by our present president and the one about a mile from his ill gotten home. The shootings are done mainly by Hispanic and black gang members, mowing down the innocent, the passersby, the children in addition to the occasional opposition gangbanger.

Last week end as Chicagoans enjoyed three record breaking sunny, 75 degree and higher seemingly summer days in this winterless winter, some Chicagoans set a shameless record of their own--10 dead, 49 others wounded in 46 shootings, mainly in the city's high crime districts.

If at first you don't succeed, try harder! Chicago is now pushing "may issue" CCW, probably so the connected and elites can carry, while silencing the calls for CCW for the unwashed masses. If the federal reciprocity bill passes, those elites would be able to carry anywhere, and the people who make Illinois run will get screwed.
