President Barack Obama spoke about his new gun control initiatives during a quick visit to his hometown of Chicago Friday, but the violence in one of the most dangerous cities in the United States did not abate.

The Politico relates:

Four separate shootings took place in the span of 90 minutes Friday evening in Chicago, the first coming less than an hour after Air Force One departed O’Hare Airport after President Obama spoke on the culture of gun violence and economic decay that plagues many cities, including his hometown. [...] An hour earlier, Obama wrapped up a personal speech at Hyde Park Academy on the South Side, where he mourned the killing of Hadiya Pendleton, the teen who visited Washington for his inauguration just a week before she was gunned down not far from the school. “This is not just a gun issue. It’s also an issue of the kinds of communities that we’re building, and for that we all share a responsibility as citizens to fix it,” he said. Obama had said little about Chicago’s murder problem — there were more than 500 in 2012 — before Friday, instead focusing on mass shootings in his post-Newtown gun control push. But at a high school just two miles away from his Chicago home, he acknowledged the depths of devastation that street violence generated in the city.

How disrespectful of them.

Just who do they think they are?

Since Barry is so good at it, he should have proposed building skeet shooting ranges in Chicago’s West Side. Only it would be BYOGA (bring your own guns and ammo).

But I still like your idea.

...restrict the availability of ammo. No ammo, no shootings.

The 18th Amendment didn't stop the importation or consumption of spirits; high cigarette taxes encourage cigarette smuggling today. Would offshore ammo factories pop up and smugglers make a fortune on ammo? Of course.

Obama’s solution to those inner city problems is to remove those rights provided by the constitution to have and bear arms legally obtained and used from all US citizens.

Before any search and seizure of illegal guns begins in those troublesome areas.NOBODY SHOULD HAVE A GUN
BECAUSE THAT WOULDN’T BE EQUAL IN THE EYES OF ANY SOCIALIST...THAT’S THE WAY THESE DEMO-COMS THINK

Which by the way will never happen but sounds great.
BUT IF GIVEN A CHANCE THEY WILL TAKE YOUR GUNS..... So gun owners better wake up and fight this.

Allow me to improve on your most excellent idea.

Rather than simply using skeet, let's modify those trap throwing devices so that they can hold something larger. Say, a gang-banging thug.

Perhaps us tax-payers who are sick and tired of paying for these bastards could have some fun and clean up society (while also improving the lives of inner-city children.)

So I have this design in my head that enables me to strap a gang-banging thug onto a trap thrower. Once I yell "PULL!" the gang-banging thug is thrown into the air (much like a skeet target) and let's just say we exercise some good old fashioned justice by blasting them out of the air.

Now, I have to confess this isn't an original idea, it just popped into my head from one of my favorite movies.

PULL!!

I'm reminded of the "It's A Wonderful Life" saying, "every time a bell rings an angel gets their wings".
