Chicago: Fireworks For The Fourth – 5 Shot Dead, 27 Wounded, 3 Days To Go In The Gun Free Paradise
Posted on July 5, 2013 by Stranger      

But there are no murders in Arkansas’ headlines.

The Chicago Sun Times reports a typical start to a weekend in Chicago, where guns are banned unless you are a Chicago Alderman named Mell. So far the banging weekend has produced at least five shot dead, with 27 wounded.

In the meantime, in the heavily armed State of Arkansas, where people can tote a gun any way that pleases them, this mornings headlines do not mention a single new murder. Motorcycle fatalities down by 45%, a lady got a surprise visit from the stem cell donor who saved her life, a suspect was arrested in a May murder, two more children have drowned in backyard pools, and life goes on in well armed Arkansas.

While the citizens of gun free – except for Aldermen named Mell – Chicago have little to celebrate except death.

seems some people are determined that in order to make deer safe from a cougar, all they need to do is saw its antlers off..
making prey more vulnerable is what makes the job easier for the bad guys.
amazing how they respond to a public that cant legally defend against them. how brazen they become,, & how many move there from places where they cant be so secure? if i was a gun totin bad guy who kicked in doors & stole stuff for a living, i bet i wouldnt wanna live in Texas.
all this wailing & carryin on about guns bein smuggled in,, how many criminals MOVE to these places?

Arkansas - has no cities ... even better, try montana ... I'll bet even fewer murders over there.

OK chicago is a very crowded place - there always is more people to shoot in a crowded place - and the guns - where and when did they come from - I'll bet they were not bought in chicago after whatever time the laws etc were passed.

Roads work a lot better than gun laws my friends.

Cool.

Gun registration and rifling mark data will ...

The seller will get your information and make sure the gun gets off his name. Cos if you rob a bank, he's liable for it.

We do that with cars and bikes ...

We dont do that with guns ...
You sell a car, leave it in yoru name, that guy robs a bank a month later, and drops off the car ... guess what, you'd be in jail.

With guns ... no.

Cool.

Right, true, however lets say all new guns had rifling and registration fully put in to a database, as well as every law abiding gun owners gun (dont give me schpeel about how gun registration is the first step to gun confiscation) ... that will leave the criminals with guns. With a matter of use and time, slowly they will be disposing off those guns cos they do that after any crime where they use it, and pretty soon we'll have 100% registered and rifling mark detailed guns. Criminals guns get tossed often ... and we will catch up in about 10 years if every sale was registered private or public. Took us 100 years to get here. 10 to get out ... maybe more if there is less crime, maybe less if there is more crime.

If they do, we can worry about it then, laws are made to counter the way people act now. If it says illegal U turn, you do know you can hover 6ft make the turn and lower back down right ? we dont have a law against that, cos we dont do that.

Yes, it makes a great defensive weapon. Offence - not as much, cos its hard to conceal. They still use em in driveby's. But still they dont have the ability to spray like a semi auto etc. Again, let us see lots of shotgun in crimes, we'll worry about laws for that then. My guess, it wont be a big factor. Cos shotguns are pretty common now, for criminals, not so much unless its a drive by. Which while it is a crime, we should say, its criminal on criminal crime.

Not exactly true in the 21st, 18 century, yea. The best way to stop a gun crimnial is to prevent him from getting his hands on a gun in the first place. He will still be a criminal. A knife criminal maybe ... then we can shoot him, or kick him in the groin.
If you're waiting to shoot a guy shooting @ a crown, you've already lost the battle, you're only limiting the damage. Then you still need to hit him before he shoots you ... he has first mover advantage.

Tarus makes a shot gun with a 3,4 an6" barrel. Its called The Judge. They also shoot 45's but that's not the point. Federal makes a 410 round that shoots wafers and pellets mixed together.The Judge Shoots those, no rifling. I had rather be shot with a 38 than one of those Federal Rounds. Its easy to hide and one of the deadliest guns out there. The 6" model shoots a 454 Casull one of the biggest deadliest bullets ever made. This gun has one purpose, to kill. A man that could shoot could take two of them loaded with those Federal Defender Rounds and wipe out a gang. If I was a cop that would be my backup pistol.

I don't remember ever missing anything with a shotgun but I've missed plenty with a rifle. Every state should have the same laws, right to carry, federal checks, no gunfree establishments except maybe courthouses and where alchohol is served, right to carry in another state, etc. The war on drugs is a complete failure and that causes over half the shootings. Domestic infidelity and robberies about cover it.

Yea I've heard of those street sweepers ... They are the size of an AK47 there abouts.
The bloody commies made all the best guns ...
