Chicago Homicide Rate Saw A Large Drop In 2013, But Still Lags Behind The Nation « CBS Chicago



Here's the problem. Our spineless legislature refuses to address the problem. The dumbest idea they came up with, was guns for everyone that wish to carry.

Nothing for universal background checks. No assault weapons ban. No sentencing guideline reform. No restrictions for straw buyers. No ban on high capacity magazines. Yet, law enforcement, and the citizenry overwhelmingly support all mentioned above. Why are they not listening? Money, and fear from the billionaires and NRA. Our legislature should fight the Supreme Corporate Court and ban Citizens United, and all "Dark Money from our elective process. Yet, they refuse.

So the best thing they can do is, come up with the dumbest idea ever. For the right price, you get a gun, you get a gun, and you get a gun.Ooh shiny object.
