All they're saying is "See? Blacks are violent."              The right-wingnuts are lying when they say Democrats don't care about the gun       violence. The problem is that there isn't a lot that local politicians can do       when guns from guns-"R"-us states like Indiana flow in a flood to Chicago.              Guns are part of the problem. If guns were much less easily available, the       high-crime parts of Chicago would still see a lot of crime, including violent       crime, but the shootings and deaths would fall. Readily available guns make it       *easier*, and thus cheaper, for violence-inclined people to commit violence.       Fewer guns = less violence. This is basic econ 101.              More guns = more crime.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
