Chicago Not the Worst

Trace, a known anti-gun fool web site. is now saying Chicago is NOT the worst place to live if you want to not be shot and killed. They base it on population figures, not total deaths. So Chicago has less killings per 100,000 population than some other cities. This is true. But it doesn't mean their gun laws WORK.Nor does it mean a Chicagoan is safer from being hit by a stray bullet.  It is just a different way of reading the numbers. Chicago still had 762 murders last year, with most of them accomplished by a gun. Other cities with smaller populations can outstrip Chicago in killings per 100,000 citizens, but it doesn't change the fact that Chicago is the most dangerous place to live, period! Their fool "gun laws" (many of which are so draconian they've been declared unconstitutional) haven't made a single DENT in the number of gun deaths, but they keep making them, and more people die, every day. The simple cure here is for law-abiding citizens to be able to have their own guns for self-defense, but they will not hear of it. They're just not smart enough. (The Trace)
