It's much easier for some people to blame others for their problems.

So the heart of the issue is acknowledged but with that realization it then appears to be too difficult with our current SJW mentality to study properly. Great.

So we should just throw our hands in the air and go after the easy fish? The fish that will not accomplish anything but rid ourselves of the final check on the power of our government. Great.

I love ya man. It has been interesting as usual and thank you!!



AND put the criminals in COMPLETE control...

Adding to your comment, what strikes me as odd, especially in Chicago, is that black lives DON'T matter to black people.

In 2011, Chicago PD data shows 75% of murder victims are black and 71% of the murderers were black.

Why are there vast swaths of america that possess a large number of these awful 'guns' that don't have similar crime/murder statistics?


Hmm...

Has anyone ever bothered to ask these black bangers why they do what they do?
They are eating their own so it might be interesting.


There has actually been some documentary type shows (20/20, Dateline, or might have been something on the History channel). They did interviews with the actual and active gang members knowingly illegally possessing/using handguns. The usual answer they gave was someyhing along the lines of “...so this gang or that gang can’t assault my manhood...”. It’s been a while since I watched it. After it was over, I (as I would think others would) came to the conclusion “because no one taught them any better.”

So because socially inept idiots in Chicago who can't be trusted should effect me, someone who lives clear across the country, eh?

Look up the 14th amendment, as regards that. Not to mention the 2nd.

Yes.

Because you're probably a deplorable anyway. Take an oath, pledge fealty to your acceptable ideological savior and you might be given the privilege of defending yourself with socially acceptable devices.

Ending the black-on-black violence associated with gangs might also reduce gun-related deaths just a smidge.






An unspoken reason there is so much violence is that MS 13, Los Zetas and other Hispanic gangs own much of the city turf, forcing the other gangs to fight over an increasingly smaller share of the pie. They don't want to take on MS 13 and neither do the politicians so nobody talks about it. Back in 2000 Chicago was 28% Hispanic, it's easily 1/3 of the population now.

There are between 1.5 -2 million gang members in the US, almost half Hispanic.

It would make more sense to protest at the border than closing down the inner loop.

I believe the lefties would rather the agency handle Firearms, Alcohol, Republicans, and Tobacco. FART.

I didn't vote for Trump, but otherwise it's applicable, mostly.

Sorry, that won't save you any more.

You have to publicly denounce Trump and swear allegiance to Karl Marx.

Or Groucho. Even Harpo.

There are plenty of people I don't like but I have no desire to kill them. But if I did, my gun would make it real easy to do so.

My gun would make it real easy to kill someone who did want to kill someone else.

So is the deterrence of knowing you're in a community that exercises their rights to firearms.
