I don’t believe your criticism is fair. The permits were only available for a month, but the residents were finally able to keep guns and practice with them this past six months or so.
I may not be remembering this right, but it seems to me that Chicago had severe restrictions on even having a gun in your home.
Yes they did. All the stats I’ve seen show that most Chicago murders are in the urban area. They involve blacks killing other blacks over drugs and gang turf.
Have there been any numbers released on how many people are buying guns in Chicago?
IMO we should be careful when the media starts saying things like this. The murder rate will probably go back up when the weather warms.
