[Illinois is near the top of the heap in that regard.]
My regret is campaigning for inept GOPe Illinois politicians rather than actively seeking candidates to run for office and campaigning for them. No more.
Isn't going to happen, the people you referred to have armed body guards and are well protected. Those that are being shot are MOSTLY street rats with an occasional “innocent” that gets in the way or a stray bullet.
That’s at Clinton and Kinzie. I walk by there all the time.
As I see it, Chicago will EVENTUALLY destroy itself like Detroit has but due to its massive size, it will take a bit longer. The democrats have done everything in their power to keep the street rats and poor right where they want them, on the Chicago “plantation”. Give them an occasional handout and keep them voting. Until the “civilized” population decides enough is enough, nothing will change.
Do Not Believe Reactionary Lies About Life Under Dear Leader !!

Additionally, look at the elevated union pensions sucking away money that could be used to make improvements, etc. I could go on and on about a lost city and its population. No wonder thousands of good people move to Wisconsin.
This and another thread today show two instances where progs have a chance to prove themselves worthy of taking guns from law-abiding citizens and deal with climate.
1. Reduce the murder rate in Chicago using whatever means necessary by 90 percent over the coming year.
2. Change the weather. You know, something simple: reverse the winds of a hurricane, pull the plug on a tornado, melt an approaching blizzard. Change the weather and maybe, just maybe we can begin to believe they have the potential to adjust the climate.
In other words, on both issues, put up or shut up. And by that, I don't mean impose a theory on the rest of humanity only to say in the end, whoops! Clearly, more laws won't work. Witness the stats on Chicago.
Collateral damage for gun-control government totalitarians. No lives matter but their own.
Find all shooters in Chicago. Use it as a test city...

Stay healthy, stay alert, stay informed, stay rational, stay safe, stay armed BUMP!
An unspoken side effect in the Chitcongo killing field is the uncompensated cost of initial trauma care and post-operative recuperation and therapy. If the city is serious about gang-related health care cost containment, it should open free shooting ranges in the hood to improve the abysmal wounded-to-killed ratio.
It’s a practical matter of economics when one compares the individual cost of uncompensated trauma care, which can range in the $100’s of thousands, to the cost born by Cook County taxpayers for an individual pauper interment, which is around $500. It’s a fact that an increase in gang-related shooting fatalities will result in a proportionate decrease in “merely wounded” gang-related recidivism.
In addition to free gun ranges, the city should hire Range Masters and instructors, who could teach gang-bangers in the proper techniques of marksmanship, such as not shooting their stolen pistols sideways; which effective defense loads to steal during home invasions; the importance of accurate followup shots; and, focusing on center-mass bullet placement.
That’s Chicago.
Chicago: Come for the food....stay because you are dead.
The places where I feel most in need of being armed are the very places I am forbidden to be armed.
The guys at this website can't keep up !
Disarming honest citizens makes it easier for thugs to steal ... easier to mug, and easier to rape... Disarming law-biding citizens makes crime 'safer'- a more secure occupation. The true democrat motive?
Democrats are also FOR releasing criminals early, reducing criminal's sentences, safeguarding violent immigrant criminals by creating 'sanctuary cities' and striking down laws that restrict criminal penalties... Democrats work against the police - and glorify the lawless..
It's "NOT compassion" like democrats want us to believe... Democrats are ON THE SIDE of criminals. They ARE criminals. White trash like Bill and Hillary (people who think they're above the law) are common-bonding with criminals... Chicago and Detroit are NOT accidents... they're DEMOCRAT CITIES BASED ON DEMOCRAT VALUES.

How many had insurance? Probably none. A gunshot wound treatment in the ER is about 50k on the taxpayer.
I am thinking about opening up a new fashion line. It’s called Ghetto Purple Hearts. It will shoot to the top of the market with a bullet.
FROM THE CRIMINALS!!!!
Suspend habeas corpus...for a time
Put together a task force of whatever number of officers or agents of the government it will take and arrest the leaders of every gang in the affected area...
Put them in a deep dark prison hole until the violence stops...
Rinse, repeat until it's effective...
Tell Obama and the DOJ to pound sand or they can handle the problem... just withdraw the police presence...if they bitch...
The gang leaders are lining the pockets of the powerful aldermen and enjoy protected status, the police have their hands tied. This is Chicago we’re talking about right?
