2 Dead, 4 Wounded In Shootings Since Monday Afternoon « CBS Chicago



Meanwhile the NRA claims "more guns" will solve this. That's flat out bullshit.

These are gangs. Criminals carrying out planned assassinations, or retaliatory shootings in an attempt of controlling the drug market. When asked of the NRA about that, all you here is either crickets, or don't encroach on my 2nd amendment rights. When they use that 2nd amendment bogus argument, ask them who's side are they on? Ask them if they honestly support a criminals right "to keep and bear arms"? Should they say no, then ask them what in the hell is so wrong with universal background checks? Should they throw that bullshit conspiracy theory, "they'll have data on me", inform them, the fucking phone company already has more data on them as opposed to a simple background check.

The constitution does not give criminals the "right to keep and bear arms". No state constitution, unless you live in Idaho and run for office, gives convicted criminals that right. Yeah, I'm with you there. What in the fuck was Idaho thinking? It's simple folks. None of us want people with mental issues, and convicted criminals having access to guns. Oh, I forgot, there's another super stupid state that grants the blind the right to own a gun. This is not a unique situation here in Chicago. This is happening all over the country. Just pick up your local newspaper, or watch your local news program, not cable.

Yet I digress. This insane behavior will continue until these so-called elected leaders lock themselves in a room with input from all communities, and come up with a sane, sensible gun legislation bill that includes universal background checks. This can be done, unlike that bullshit, idiotic NRA position.
