We don't have a gun problem in this country. What we have is a political party, the democrat party, that for some reason supports criminals being free to roam our streets, without real supervision.....and then they create law after law that targets people who are law abiding.....and when the crime rates don't go down as a result of the laws targeting people who don't break the law in the first place, the first thing the democrats do is call for more laws and gun control against those same law abiding gun owners....while they release violent, known, repeat gun offenders over and over again...
Cook Co. Bans Sheriff From Keeping Intel On Gang Members, Sharing Gang Knowledge - Blue Lives Matter
Chicago, IL – The Cook County Board of Commissioners on Thursday voted to permanently destroy the county’s gang database, and set up legal barriers to make sure it cannot be restarted.
The Regional Gang Intelligence Database has been a contentious resource for Chicago-area law enforcement.
In January, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office announced it had “terminated” the database after no other law enforcement agency in the region was willing to run and maintain it, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart’s chief policy adviser, Cara Smith, said the database was no longer connected to the system and had been stored in a secure location.
Smith said the gang database will be destroyed after the Cook County Local Records Commission voted to have it destroyed. That could happen within a year, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
The ordinance that was approved on Feb. 21 goes into effect immediately. The mandate said that the sheriff’s department would be charged with enacting “the final destruction” of the crime-fighting too.
It also prohibited the Cook County sheriff from maintaining, re-creating, or sharing the kind of information collected for the database, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
