Not only global warming but also could be related to the sugar content in Big Gulps.

But I thought NY has strict gun laws. Perhaps that’s the problem.

In Chicago the militantly stupid police chief blames whites for the non-stop violence in the “vibrant” neighborhoods. And all the navel gazing CONservatives who are paid hacks just sit there and grin when a PC commisar goes about blame shifting. They all deserve the George Will Award for best sidekick.

Perhaps but according to one comment on the board “racist right-wingers” add to the problems.

Remember when the primary competition between New York and Chicago was the Giants and the Bears?
Now it’s shooting incidents per capita.

But I thought NY has strict gun laws. Perhaps thats the problem. Dems also love to pack people tight into dense cities - then excuse criminal behavior... everything dems think is wrong...

it's simple..
take ONE area, give everyone there free training and free weapon
see how much crime there is in that neighborhood compared to all others
THEN we'll know once and for all if gun control reduces crime or if the neighborhood where everyone has a gun is safer

New York hates to be outranked by Chicago in any category so they are just playing catch up.

Gun control only take guns from white folks. It sure seems to fail when it comes to any other group.

This is a lie. Gun Control works every time it is tried! Think how bad it would be, though, if there were guns on the streets...God bless New York, a land of orange skies and peppermint slurpies, all of a very small size and sugar free.
To: ConservativeStatement
Gun-control laws are racist.
http://www.gunlaws.com/GunshotDemographics.htm
The implication inherent in all of such stories is the one race overwhelmingly involved in such incidents is so stupid, immature, unable to control themselves in a civilized manner that they need government to take firearms away for their own good.

NYC, Baltimore, Chicago, LA, San Francisco can ALL be shot to hell for all I care. They have taken the natural rights of their citizens to defend themselves, and they have encouraged blacks to become feral thugs. A pox on them all.

Gun control is a steady hand and a beady eye.

According to Ector, the time has arrived for city of Detroit to break ties with the racist roots of gun control. Ector stated, Gun laws have always been most strict in cities with large numbers of black people. Detroit is no different in that regard. In 1925, Dr. Ossian Sweet was acquitted of defending his home from a mob of people who were upset with the gall of a black man who dared to integrate a white neighborhood.
Ector, was referring to the Michigan court case which many have credited as being the genesis of the 1927 Michigan Firearms Act. This law created County Gun Boards, required the licensing of handguns, and made acquiring Concealed Pistol Licenses (CPLs) and handguns difficult for most black people.
