Morton Grove IL. (Suburb of Chicago), 25 years ago: “ …More significantly, perhaps, the city’s crime rate increased by 15.7 percent immediately after the gun ban, even though the overall crime rate in Cook County rose only 3 percent….”In Kennesaw Georgia, (In response to Morton Grove, passed a law, MANDATING, the ownership of firearms): “… town that witnessed a dramatic plunge in crime and violence after mandating residents to own firearms.– responding to a handgun ban in Morton Grove, Ill. – unanimously passed an ordinance requiring each head of household to own and maintain a gun. Since then, despite dire predictions of “Wild West” showdowns and increased violence and accidents, not a single resident has been involved in a fatal shooting – as a victim, attacker or defender….The crime rate initially plummeted for several years after the passage of the ordinance, with the 2005 per capita crime rate actually significantly lower than it was in 1981, the year before passage of the law. …”Hmmmm, Gun, ‘Control, really Works’. Oh, Wait !!!! ‘Observed, Reality', is, ‘Really’, not, ‘Real’. (As we have all been told)
