Another Example of The "Effectiveness" of Gun Laws

So, it appears they're shootin' each other up in Chicago:

What I find most interesting is the quote by Police Superintendent Jody Weis: "There are just too many weapons here...Too many guns, too many gangs."

I am fascinated by that because Chicago has one of the most oppressive gun control policies in the United States. With such strong gun control on the books, how can there be "too many guns"? Odd.

Then it dawned on me; gun-control advocates can smirk at the When Guns Are Outlawed Only Outlaws Will Have Guns bumper sticker all they want, but it continues to ring true. Consider that two of the most gun violent cities in the U.S....Chicago & D.C....Are also two cities with the strongest gun control laws and you can see the prescience of the bumper sticker.

I don't know the victims in the Chicago story, but I'll bet most of them were obeying Chicago's gun laws and as a result unable to fire back. They're being called "victims" now.

So when are the gun-haters going to quit making more victims? When are they going to realize the more you outlaw guns the more victims you will have? Bah, better to just smirk at the "rednecks with the bumper stickers", right?

Thing is, those rednecks might have fired back. A country boy can survive.
