"According to Ynet, the ten different organizations say that a recent uptick of murders are the direct result of a decision by Internal Security Minister Gilad Erdan to allow veterans of IDF infantry units to obtain personal handgun permits."

Bull feathers. Only a weak mind would swallow this "direct result" argument. Life in our world is not that simple that you could ever find a proven cause and effect in such a short period of time.

And it sounds like a pretty typical week in ChiTown to me?

Let us see how many were murdered by people with the handgun permits.

The number is not shown in the article.

I wonder why...

Because it would show their premise to be false.
