Hmm... Makes sense... Toughest gun laws in the nation... Highest amount of gun crimes... Ya must be the lax gun laws.

Poverty, drugs, lack of jobs, poor education, culture, and a non existent family structure has nothing to do with it.
Uh huh.
Gun violence is 80% a gang violence issue. They kill each other or kill bystanders because they can't hit a bus shooting.[/QUOTE said:Are you suggestiong mandatory markmanship training as part of parole requirements?
I jest of course
When we discuss gun deaths in Chicago it's always stated as Number 1 in the country when in fact it isn't As with any statistic it depends on how you rank them. Rank in murder per 100k it's not even in the top 9.
1. New Orleans...........................19.0
2. Memphis...................................9.4
3. Detroit.......................................8.6
4. Birmingham..............................8.4
5. St. Louis...................................8.1
6. Baltimore..................................7.7
7. Jacksonville..............................7.4
8. Kansas City..............................6.8
9. Philadelphia..............................6.2
But when you look at sheer numbers, it ranks 2
1. Los Angeles.......................1,141
2. Chicago..............................1,139
3. New York.............................1,101
4. Philadelphia...........................729
5. Houston..................................701
6. Detroit.....................................686
7. Miami.......................................594
8. Dallas......................................469
9. Washington.............................440
10. San Francisco......................439

They need tougher gun control laws in Chicago.
Where did you get those numbers? Chicago only had 500 murders in '12 according to the FBI and that is murders total, not just gun related ones. Do your numbers include suicide or self defense?

Just imagine the murder rates if they could shoot even marginally well.
They were from the Centers for Disease control and Prevention, they were for only murders during a 2 year period, not one.
They had them, lost most in a poker game with the NRA. The mayor tried to bluff, ultimately had a losing hand.They need tougher gun control laws in Chicago.
Chicago had it's first shooting by a carry-permit holder this past weekend. It's going to be an interesting summer.
