        Reporting on Chicago gun violence without mentioning the Indiana -> Chicago firearms pipeline is a breech of journalistic ethics. Try harder, guys.

        I think the fine young citizens of Chicago are using full semi-automatic ghost guns, equipped with bump stocks, binary triggers, and high capacity magazine clips, that they purchased legally, without background checks.

        Wonder how many of the offending firearms were purchased new from an authorized dealer? You know, the transactions proposed gun control laws would have prevented? Australia had it right...

        And it will continue until tougher laws are enacted and they get rid of that “do nothing” mayor who rather talk about any and everything- except the preservation of lives.

        We aren’t combating gun violence, that’s the problem.

        It appears that USA Today just discovered the link between #GlobalWarming and #BlackonBlack violence and murder. There's #NobelPrize in here somewhere.

        One of the most liberal cities in America. Between feces and needles in the streets on San Fran to all out war in Chicago it’s amazing that anyone still believes a word of the naivety and sheer ignorance the left pitches.

        Why aren't they calling for the impeachment of Emanuel? They need a @RudyGiuliani type mayor to fight crime.
