What a dumb question! No, they DON'T. It was
illustrated yet again during the July 4th weekend in
Chicago, which has some of the TIGHTEST gun laws in the nation. So
tight, in fact, that the Supreme Court threw at least one of them out
as unconstitutional. Even so, 40 people were wounded by gun violence,
and 7 were KILLED, including one little boy (7 YO). Police
Superintendent Gary McCarthy said, “We need to repair a broken
system.” It isn't going to be “repaired” with the kind of laws
they've been making. The 7 YO, Amari Brown, was an unintended victim
of a bullet meant for his father, who is a “ranking gang member”
who rightfully SHOULD have been in jail. The father has been arrested
45 times, has a lengthy criminal record, and thus shouldn't even be
out of jail. And therein lies the problem. 45 arrests and a long
criminal record, and still free as a bird. Doesn't that tell you
something? Sounds like kind of a weak enforcement, to me. Of laws not
connected to gun carrying. (Town Hall)
