Yesterday, some of us fumed over the Illinois State Police launching their ammo registration portal on the Firearms “Services” Bureau (you're the one that's gonna get serviced). Then we all saw the news of the barbarian Hamas terrorists attacking Israel, slaughtering women and children after they raped them and taking plenty more hostage. And don't forget about parading dead and sometimes naked bodies of those they killed back in the Gaza Strip.
Something else big happened in America's heartland. Chicago surpassed 500 homicides for the year.
500 homicides.
Think about that. Five hundred homicides in a single city.
The macabre milestone happened as over 20 were shot and maimed. It's funny how nobody in the mainstream media reported on the milestone in gang violence.
Moreover, 82% of the victims of all this violence were blacks. The black-on-black gang violence in Chicago is off the rails. The Ku Klux Klan couldn't dream of killing as many blacks as young black gang members do (and do so effectively) while bickering over the most trivial of concerns.
But when bad guys face a 1% likelihood of arrest and incarceration related to committing violent crimes, is it any wonder the violence is prolific and endemic?
The answer to this is arresting and imprisoning the violent offenders. But that's not going to happen in today's political climate. And so long as those reliably Democrat voters in Chicago keep electing pandering politicians demanding more restrictions on the law-abiding good guys and their guns, nothing will change.
Gun control disarms VICTIMS, not criminals.
Meanwhile, as a reminder, in Florida, they imprison violent offenders. And violent crime there is at 50-year lows.

Considering who’s being killed (thugs), 500 is not near enough.
Unless it’s whites and/or white cops shooting and/or killing black folks, the lame-stream, fake-news Democrat media just ain’t interested in reporting on something where they can’t fan the flames of perceived racial discourse and victimhood.
‘Cuz it just ain’t newsworthy, ya’ know?
As sorry as this statistic is, the strange part is that 85% of those killed are of one race. You can’t make this stuff up; all democrat cities have become hell on earth and with no end in sight. Do you know why? The idiot citizens keep voting democrats into office.
And that pretty much began with LBJ’s welfare program, destroying the family structure by replacing the father with the govt (Dem party welfare state) for support, providing needs and molding moral/cultural guidance..
Here’s an idea, let them ! They want to kill each other ? Go right ahead.
