========================================
Mr constitution suggests killing millions of American citizens without a trial. Wow.
...And appeantly believes the current murder rate is not a problem because killing the rest would be the solution.
Sure and someone died from an infection from a hangnail. But the fact of the matter is Albert is 1/4 as likely to be murdered than you are.Albert may live through a knife attack, or any aggravated assault. People will use whatever weapon is handy. I saw a one punch fight where the recipient died after his head hit the curb. If fists were outlawed, he might have lived.
Well, now that the punch lines are out of the way, what is a solution for Chicago?It is soooooooo easy to get a rise out of you, Mr. Predictable.
I have no doubt about guns being more efficient at killing people. Unfortunately, I doubt the "spray and pray" technique has increased the efficiency factor of guns. In the right hands, the gun is highly efficient, the metric being one shot, one dead.Same thing with suicides - guns are just better at it.
It might be higher because of the disparity in population between the UK and the US. The US has almost five times the population of the UK. I lived in NYC for a number of years on and off. Walked some streets I had no business being on at oddball times. Still I woke up this morning.But the fact of the matter is Albert is 1/4 as likely to be murdered than you are.
That will only reduce the killings from that locale. Zero population would equal zero murder rate.What do you think? Should we nuke Chicago?
Oh, I dunno. Isn't the white man supposed to pay reparations for slavery or something, and then all will be rainbows and unicorns?...what is a solution for Chicago?
So full of opinions but no ideas. Nice.Oh, I dunno. Isn't the white man supposed to pay reparations for slavery or something, and then all will be rainbows and unicorns?
So your saying there is a correlation between number of people and the murder rate? Kind of like to many mice in the cage?It might be higher because of the disparity in population between the UK and the US. The US has almost five times the population of the UK. I lived in NYC for a number of years on and off. Walked some streets I had no business being on at oddball times. Still I woke up this morning.
Yet the Dallas rate is twice the national average. However it is 1/2 of Chicago's. Do we need more guns in Chicago?The news is reporting 100+ civilians are taking part in an Active Shooter Response class offered by the Fort Worth police. http://cbsloc.al/2ccmFGA
Wayne lives just outside Chicago. I just wanted his opinion on the nukes.That will only reduce the killings from that locale. Zero population would equal zero murder rate.
You should know by now the only part of the Constitution that counts is the 2nd amendment. If you have doubts about this read the latest GOP platform or attend a Trump rally.Mr constitution suggests killing millions of American citizens without a trial.
Yep, the mob took care of it's turf, and it took care of a lot of crime at the same time. Look at the "new" Las Vegas.You could always invite Al Capone back to Chicago.
Seems the crime stats show there was a lower overall murder rate then as opposed to recent years. Population being almost the same also.
Maybe the gangsters were just better shots and fewer innocent bystanders got nailed.
So do you think America was blessed to have an inordinate number of these people?Guns have less to do with it than most people believe. It is mostly evil, careless, chaotic mentality in a subset of the human animal to blame. Those who do not give a DAMN about consequences and would as soon kill you or rob you or both just for something to do.
It is an evil of the soul and cannot be legislated away.
Violence must sometimes be met with violence. Violence is a tool. Sometimes used for good, other times used for bad.
If they want to kill and other means fail to stop them, then kill them right back. When enough is enough that is what will finally finish this.
I read in the 2015 Texas DPS report about a smaller PD reporting 1 murder and a 3.9 per 100,000 rate in Dallas county. Of course there were lots of Police Departments reporting no murders in the county. Dallas has the highest number of murders in Dallas County with 136 or 10.4 per 100,000 rate.Yet the Dallas rate is twice the national average.
You can't say much about convictions when considering that more than one city has had their first killer cop indictment in more than a decade happen this year, and half the police departments didn't report deaths to the FBI in any year you want to pick.It doesn't say much about convictions.
There needs to be a redistribution of guns in Chicago from the armed thugs to the law abiding citizens but that would upset the apple-cart designed by the cities criminals and politicos. The politicos have decided it's better to cede areas of low criminal resistance in the city to gangs in order to keep them concentrated from the rest of the voters. Nobody really gives a damn about blacks killing other blacks there as long as respectable people are free to life their lives elsewhere in the city.@JoeJester
It's early, but I don't know what your point is.
The questions were why is the UK murder rate 4X lower?
Based on your thinking we need more guns in Chicago?
I've been telling people that for a while now. In the Youngstown, OH area there was a pretty big mob/mafia presence, big enough it was mentioned a few time in the TV show "the Sopranos". When they were prominent in the area there was little drugs and person to person crime. If the "bad guy's" did something that wasn't sanctioned by the mob they paid a price, sometimes with there lives. The average citizen was safer when the mob was in "control". They were the force that kept things from getting out of hand.Yep, the mob took care of it's turf, and it took care of a lot of crime at the same time
That is not a compliment to our Hero's in Blue.The average citizen was safer when the mob was in "control". They were the force that kept things from getting out of hand.
Do you have a plan or suggestion how that would work without any violations of the beloved second amendment?There needs to be a redistribution of guns in Chicago from the armed thugs to the law abiding citizens...
Violations of the beloved second amendment are what made this a critical issue for regular citizens is those areas by focusing on guns not criminals. By focusing on tight restrictions on guns to the non-criminal instead of tight restrictions on criminal activities that involve guns the solution to the equation of safety for the citizens in those areas didn't match the physical and political reality of Chicago. The true solution is not fewer or more guns for criminals or citizens. The true solution is less corruption from a embedded leadership of brothers in crime running their own private empires in the city.Do you have a plan or suggestion how that would work without any violations of the beloved second amendment?
I live upwind, so let 'em fly! Release the hounds.Wayne lives just outside Chicago. I just wanted his opinion on the nukes.
