View attachment 287453Correlation is not causation, and since you have made the claim, I am sure you have data to back up your statement.
Um, yeah, we went from 400 Murders a year in 2010, when we still had our gun laws, to over 700 in 2016 after the gang-bangers could all send their old ladies down to the gun store and buy a bunch of guns.
Guns are pretty much banned in Chicago, so strict gun control doesn't work.
No, they aren't... In fact, fight after the McDonald Decision and after Illinois being the last state to outlaw conceal carry, the gun industry pretty much flooded the city with more guns, which is why the murder rate doubled in Chicago.
There were, of course, other factors, such as a changed in the power structure of street gangs (The big gangs had been rolled up by the feds, so smaller gangs emerged to fill the vacuum) and a complete breakdown of trust between the Chicago PD and the black community after the LaQuan McDonald Shooting.
I just explained to you that Chicago is not "gun free" and you can get a gun as easily in Chicago now as anywhere else.
Why do you guys not even bother doing the minimum of research?
You can get a gun illegally easily.
Yet you blame legal handguns for the crime.
You are a fucking liar.
