cities are the heartland of Americas real gun culture. It isnt the bitter gun-and-bible clingers in McCain and Romney territory who are racking up a more horrifying annual kill rate than Al Qaeda; its Obamas own voting base.
Chicago matches the murder rate for Japan and is higher than the murder rates for Spain, Poland and pre-war Syria. If Chicago gets any worse, it will find itself passing the homicide rate for the entire country of Canada.
Chicagos murder rate of 15.65 per 100,000 people looks nothing like the American 4.2 rate, the Midwestern 4.5 or the Illinois 5.6 rates, but it does look like the murder rates in failed countries like Rwanda, Sierra Leone and Zimbabwe. To achieve Chicagos murder rate, African countries usually have to experience a bloody genocidal civil war or decades of tyranny.
But Chicago isnt even all that unique. Or the worst case scenario. That would be New Orleans which at an incredible 72.8 murder rate is ten times higher than the national average. If New Orleans were a country, it would have the 2nd highest murder rate in the world, beating out El Salvador.
Louisiana went red for Romney 58 to 40, but Orleans Parish went blue for Obama 80 to 17.
St. Louis has a murder rate just a little lower than Belize. Baltimore has a worse murder rate than South Africa and Detroit has a worse murder rate than Colombia. Obama won both St. Louis and Baltimore by comfortable margins. He won Detroits Wayne County 73 to 26.
Homicide rates like these show that something is broken, but it isnt broken among the Romney voters rushing to stock up on assault rifles every time Obama begins threatening their right to buy them; its broken among Obamas base.

And the worst gang of all is the Democratic party.
Amen to that brother!
Amen to that brother!
Of course one would be quickly and loudly labeled as a right wing racist to point out the obvious here.
My suggestion would be to fence these places in, give them all of the fully auto weapons and ammo they could possibly want and let the situation take care of itself.
In the mean time leave the rest of us the hell alone.
The whole point. The democRAT's policies have created this mess exactly to destroy this country as founded.

Read the comments by the morons who think that if we outlaw guns these gangs will be disarmed. They seem to think these gangbangers are getting their guns at gun shows and private sales and not on the black market.
Aren’t most of the other gangs wholly owned subsidiaries of that one?
Psalm 84 Verse 10:
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. - King David
Interesting DOJ statistical analysis (rare in that it breaks out Hispanic crime instead of lumping Hispanic and white crime together):
Forty-one percent of violent felons were black, non- Hispanic , 30% were Hispanic, and 26% were white, non-Hispanic. Blacks (46%) comprised a higher percentage of murderers than Hispanics (27%) or whites (23%).If you subtract out the black and Hispanic homicides, the white homicide rate is about the same as Europe.
Why are there gangs? The Democrats created 40 years of welfare and a dependent society where the gub’ment check just arrives each month with nothing expected in return. As these people get their meager check they still can’t have what others have so the only way to get it is unlawfully. The dependent society has no incentive to better one’s life.
All examples of Amish concentration.
Most gang members are minorities.
Most gang members are young minorities.
Most gang members live in the inner cities.
Most gang members live in minority majority cities.
Oops, another inconvenient truth therefore the author of the article must be racist.

“All examples of Amish concentration.”
You haven’t watched the new show “Amish Mafia” yet? They are bad to the bone. Best one was a shop in theirnlittl town was selling Amish goods made in China instead of local product goods. The mafia wasn’t too happy with that.
Still too early... Sorry for the misspellings.
No, America has a failure of will problem. One platoon of marines could fix the gang problem if we had the will to let them.
America doesn’t have a gang problem, it has a prohibition problem.
