Well, I'll toss the grenade in this thread. Let's put aside the almost five decades of failure that is the War...On...Drugs!!
The relevant question is, If Chicago is a gun free city by law...where..do..the..guns..come..from???
Answer this, and maybe, just maybe, you'll be on the road to figuring out how to stop the carnage.
3..2..1..Go!....
doesn't seem like the relevant question to me.
It's one of the most relevant questions. How do the guns get into the city for people to use in crimes?
Chicago is a gun free zone by law...so? Explain.
It isn't a gun free zone, in fact, they now have concealed carry....but almost all of the shooters are already felons who can't buy, own or carry guns....
Please explain this particular point...
Houston....gun stores on every corner, people can easily carry guns, in a state that borders the Narco state of Mexico......
Chicago... no gun stores allowed, no gun ranges......has more gun murder than Houston......
How do you explain the difference...if it is access to guns..since Houston and Dallas have easier access to guns......
Also...California borders Arizona and Nevada.......where guns are just as easy to get...doesn't have the same gun murder problem as Chicago...
New York....borders Pennsylvania, and easy drive to Vermont....doesn't have the same gun murder number as chicago..
How do you explain that...
I'll give you 3-2-1.......
