How are those new gun laws working out for you? Yeah, the ones implemented to circumvent the SCOTUS ruling...
Seems like someone didn't get the memo...
I am not suggesting that this story would have a different ending had they not passed the new laws following the recent SCOTUS ruling, the young man would still be dead. The point instead is, no matter how punitive the law, it will only be the law abiding citizens who are effected. The criminals will continue to leave their homes with their guns assembled.

Teen Shot 22 Times
Teen was preparing to enter the 8th grade
By ADRIANA CORREA and LAUREN JIGGETTS
A 13-year-old boy was shot 22 times overnight in the West Pullman Neighborhood while he rode his bicycle, according to police.
Robert Freeman, of the 11500 block of South Perry Avenue, died from the wounds.
Freeman was standing next to a car on South Perry at around 8:15 pm on Wednesday when a masked gunman jumped out of an overgrown vacant lot and opened fire into a crowd of people, his mother, Theresa Lumkin, said. Freeman was the only one hit...
A witness said the shooter stood over the boy after he fell and continued to shoot him in the chest. His family believes the shooting was a case of mistaken identity...
