FALSE!

Chicago has very strict gun control, so this could not have happened.

Rahm-n-noodle on a train. All these shooting could have been prevented if only Rahmee boy had been able to register all the handguns in IL sooner. But I forgot, nobody can have a pistol in Chi-town. Right? Flunky fer sure.

I encourage this violence to take place where the rich liberals live in Chicago.

Can we have a list of the racial/ethnic background of the shooters and victims. Ages of shooters and victims would be enlightening. Geographic location would be interesting too. The press will only whine about "guns". History would predict the shooters are 18-24, black or hispanic.

The best Rahm Emanuel autograph Posted by David Hardy · 7 February 2012 04:19 PM Is one found at the bottom of a City of Chicago check to Second Amendment Foundation, for attorney's fees and costs, in the amount of $399,950. Looks like Alan Gottlieb holding it. OK, so it's probably an automatic signature, but the thought of how Rahm must have reacted to the news that it had be sent is amusing. Essentially, Chicago involuntarily becomes the funder of the next round of pro right to arms challenges.

Hard to believe that you would expose yourself to being called the “R” word by making such an inference. LOL! But you are more than likely right on target. Oops! Did I say that out loud?

After clicking the link and reading more, the age spread was broader. Youngest age 10. Oldest age 61. Didn't miss the ethnicity question. Tytus Harris (22), Rogelio Servantes, Clifton Harlson (27), Jamal Harris (19), Greg Clinsey (61), Edgar Delgado (17), Asif Memon.

Read "More guns, less crime" for the stats. Making a guess from long term statistical information is a pretty safe bet. The politicians won't deal with the problem because they are afraid of the "R" word. Instead, they punish everyone for the acts of a well defined minority.

I’d be willing to bet the majority of these killings were in Eric Holder’s peoples neighborhoods involving Eric Holder’s people.
And NOT in the Polish or Italian neighborhoods.
Nor the rich enclaves.
