Chicago is an armed camp like everywhere else in America.
No one cares about gun laws....criminal or non criminals.
Gun control or lack thereof means nothing there, or anywhere else.
If people want guns, they go and get'em irrespective of gun laws. They don't wait for laws to change and they don't care about restrictions. If they shoot a criminal trying to victimize them, there isn't a jury in Chicago that'll convict them of using an illegal gun. People know this.
People make too big a deal about gun laws in the inner cities. Gun laws no matter how restrictive, play no role. People that are otherwise law abiding people, will pop a cap in your ass in a minute...Gun laws be damned.
Yes, this definitely makes it better that the gun culture has armed so many testosterone-filled teenage boys and other nut jobs that mass shootings in malls, schools, movie theaters and even NON gun-free zones like WalMart are every day occurrences.
Where on earth did gun goons get the idea that perpetually screaming "Chicago" makes it all OK? That this will all be better if only liberals would stop publicizing inconvenient mass shootings and focus on crime in Chicago, so you don't have to be reminded that nice white kids all have guns, too?
The NRA? Redstate.com? Your fevered, gun-happy imaginations? Where, exactly?
So you don't care that there are mass shootings in those places on just about a daily basis? Nice white kids don't all have guns. I'd bet you the percentage of blacks compared to their overall population have more guns in their youths hands than whites do.
Now, you and I have had this stupid discussion before, you continue to make this claim even though you know their are marches on a weekly basis to bring attention to these matters, you know their are programs in place to try to get illegal guns and keep kids off the street, so why sir(or ma'am) do you continue to lie ?
Because no one does care. It does not make national MSM until they start shooting themselves in the good sections of Chicago. The last one that happened outside of the "bad zone" that raise national attention was back in Sept 2013.
They blame it on gangs and drugs. They say get rid of the guns and the rest will go away.
Gangs and drugs will continue to exist and the "gun" will be replaced with another weapon.
Drugs is how they make their money so that is NOT going away.
Gangs is how they control their territory and that is not going to stop either.
Think of early NYC and the Italian mafia and how they ruled.

I have never heard anyone say the second half of the bold
Most mass shootings actually involve white men. Most single gun homicides are isolated gang incidents in poor neighborhoods. To think race has anything to do with gun violence is illogical.
Look at this race baiter. He's claiming "most mass shootings" involve white guys.
What about the mass shootings in Oakland, Chicago, and South LA that the liberals ignore and give no air time? All white guys too?
Gun ban advocates are GUN ban advocates, they work on one subject. Do you not see the flaw in your argument ?
It's not my argument..see my above post.
Getting rid of guns will not get rid of drugs/gangs. They will just find a new weapon of choice.
Ban the guns and you'll see the Mexican cartels get into a new line of business.
