I just wonder what is the actual sentence average for a gang-banger having an illegal weapon? If it is a felony, 7 years or so seems what it should be. Enhanced when fired, etc.

that’s the point- criminals don’t give a crap about background checks- I’m willing to bet most of thsoe guns were obtained illegally- breaking several gun laws already on the books

gun laws only hurt law abiding citizens, not criminals

I check on https://heyjackass.com every now and then.

The “shot in the junk-o-meter” and “shot in the ass-o-meter”always makes me want to chuckle.

I don’t know how the people put up with all the violence.

I don’t know how the people put up with all the violence.

Lots of people still want to buy illegal drugs

engage with young hookers and gamble.

Gangs that support corrupt politicians

fight over the turf used to provide illicit

"goods and services" it's really very simple,

with effectively no civil authority

the law of the jungle meets the

law of supply and demand .

That reads like an unrhymed God of the Copybook Headings.

Move along, since the media can’t blame Trump they are ignoring it...

“Is there a single Democrat demanding “an end to this”?”

Only lip service. They want the issue, they are not interested in solving the problems.

Wow Thanks!

Rudyard really knew what he was writing about and

I don’t think today’s human condition would surprise him much.

I wish there was no need to ever speak of such terrible things but

unfortunately it’s not to be just yet however

I do believe the wind has recently changed in our favor.

I am going to keep up with the prayer AND fasting.

God Bless

The only place a Rham Emanuel could be elected as mayor is where the dnc controls the ballot boxes, like in Sh!tcago.
