Gun Violence

When it comes to gun violence, Chicago is a head scratcher. I understand why the nation mourns when a lunatic goes on a shooting rampage at a school. I even understand why some cry out for "common sense gun reform." But the real plague of gun violence exists within America's inner cities. And it occurs in cities with some of strictest gun laws. A fact entirely ingorned by gun control advocates. A simple examination of firearm homicides by state, compared to the relative strength of those gun laws by state shows there is no correlation at all between gun violence and gun laws. An indication that criminals ignore the laws...what a shocker. Chicago's inner city is a collective mass shooting on a daily basis.

Exactly. Gun laws arent working.


We need stiffer penalties for those committing crimes with guns. Serious penalties.

Why are so many young males hell bent on killing people in mass?

It's not children.
It's not young females.
It's not old females.
It's not old males.

If all these young men were killing people with automobiles, would we be talking about banning automobiles or requiring stricter background checks to get a drivers license?

What do these young males tend to have in common? What are we possibly doing as a society that may be driving these young males to murder? Why do we seem to miss the clues that these violent men had such crimes in their hearts long before they elevated to active shooter status? Why isn't the media and all the politicians asking this same question?

No one really cares since the majority of the shootings are being done by black/hispanic people against other black/hispanic people.

But if it was a white shooter, you can count on that they would be in an uproar about it.
