What is the matter with Chicago? Can’t they pass more gun laws to prevent this sort of shootings?

The news I saw has the authorities now talking about “illegal weapons” as the problems instead of guns in general.

The police superintendent pointed out the difference between the average Chicago shooter and, say, a New York shooter. The New York shooter, he said, will shoot and abandon the gun. The Chicago shooter holds onto it because getting in trouble with his gang for losing the gun is worse to them than getting caught by the police. I guess his point was that if Chicago shooters would start abandoning their weapons, there would be few illegal weapons on the streets. (??)
