In the case of Chicago and per heyjackass.com

Year To Date
Shot & Killed: 219
Shot & Wounded: 975
Total Shot: 1194
Total Homicides: 243

So much for gun control.

And on Buffalo per the PD: Buffalo Police Deputy Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia said there has been a 71% increase in shootings with injuries from 2020 to 2021.

Not a peep outta Deep State then, was there?

“The reality is in the past two years, we have over a 200% increase in the number of people who have been shot, non-fatal and the number of people have been killed.

Rather than teaching nonscientific pronoun usage schools should be teaching the elements of criminal law.
