Actually, Chicago has a lower gun crime rate than most major cities in the USA. Oops!

Why are you twisting what he said? He never said anything about someone knocking on a door , he is talking about someone out of nowhere kicking down his door for no reason and no identification

If someone is knocking on someones door they usually will see who it is first and whats going on, nobody is talking about blowing anyones head off for knocking on a door.

I didn't say anything about shooting someone for knocking, I said kick in the door which means to enter without permission. Pay attention and don't be stupid.

Wouldn't you expect that in a city with very strict gun control laws?

Do you think that is just her opinion, and her's alone?

I agree, I don't want people to get shot....but why put restrictions on a law abiding citizen....when a criminal is not going to follow the law.

And, you must take out the suicide stats also, to have an honest opinion on gun deaths....

Her opinions often translate to votes, it's her ability to vote against my rights which cause me to take notice.

1 too many ... Do you really think elected officials are going to come out in public and say they want to confiscate all guns?

Or do you actually believe what politicians say are true ?
