CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy says the city has logged its 500th homicide of the year.

McCarthy issued a statement Friday calling the milestone a "tragic number that is reflective of the gang violence and proliferation of illegal guns that have plagued some of our neighborhoods."

I remember when “Law and Order” was considered a government responsibility. How could we ever entrust our protection to a government composed of crooked judges, corrupt bureaucrats, creepy legislators, an ignorant electorate, all led by the biggest liar ever. Show me way to next Gun show.

Is that a problem? Seems like we got rid of 500 violent thugs who would have just added to the clogging & congestion of our penal system, including paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to feed, clothe & house these thugs, all paid for by the taxpayers.

What do you (McCarthy) mean? Proliferation of illegal guns? You mean the criminals refuse to obey the strictest gun control laws in the country? According to a libturd's mindset, that just cannot be! Oh the horror of it all!

This is not random, these fellows are targeting each other. Government offers half hearted solutions like “We have to get guns off the street”, IMHO they use them to scare people into thinking “guns” are the problem, I’m not scared of any gun!
