A reader of the Philadelphia Daily News responds to the city's mayor (Michael Nutter) attempting to implement gun ordinances outside the scope of Pennsylvania state laws.

Excellent argument. I couldn’t agree more.

I find it perversly interesting that so many major cities which have strict gun controls have large Black populations and Black Mayors/City Councils and are one party, (Democrat) cities.

I think one reason why many think it’s OK to discriminate against gun owners, is that they choose to be gun owners, while humans do not have a choice in their ethnicity.

Nutter and all politicians in the Democrat feifdom of Philadelphia do not have any desire to do what it will really take to end the carnage--lock up the thugs permanently.

So instead, they go after the law-abiding.

Right out of the Democrat playbook.

If the weapons used were obtained illegally, what good would another law do?

We cannot stop crime by creating new laws. We must eliminate unwarranted and unnecessary laws, pare down the books, and use the remaining laws to their fullest.

Drug lords and transporters should not go to jail, they should die. Drug users should he held until clean, only, and then be put under the direction of a drug enforcement unit to correct their lives.

Guns are not the problem here, wasted useless lives are. These people need a feeling of self worth, without fear, and the ability to trust, not hate, one another.

Are pigs starting to fly? Philly Daily News prints a honest summation of the Nutteryness of the Mayor’s Office? And troglodyte DA Abrahms balked in using their illegal laws? Maybe. ... ... Maybe.

Quite frankly, with the Philadelphia Daily News being the toilet-paper DemCom propaganda rag that it is, I was surprised as hell that they printed ANYTHING remotely pro-gun. Especially after turning to their full-page spread in the same issue showing the “deadly, semi-automatic SKS assault rifle” that the dirtbag thugs used to kill the cop.

Mayor Thugnutter has his bloody shirt to wave now. Convenient timing for him and his ilk.

Would it have made a difference if they used a Winchester .30-30 or a shotgun? Same result - dead cop.
