Durbin: ‘Hard’ to See What’s Causing D.C. Crime Surge, I Know Lack of Gun Control Is Part of Chicago’s Problem
Breitbart ^ | 09/12/2023 | Ian hatchett

On Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Senate Majority Whip and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) responded to a question on the crime surge in Washington, D.C. and what can be done for crimes committed without a gun by stating that “it’s hard to put your finger on it for any given city.” And “Some of this is going to take addressing issues that are really deep-seated in terms of poverty and the way children are being raised,” Durbin also stated that he knows that lack of gun control is a part of the crime issue in Chicago.

Want to know a secret?

The largest percentage of gun violence is done by minority drug gangs protecting their market share. Those drugs are distributed by the Mexican Drug Cartels. If we want to eliminate the distributors we need go after the Cartels inside Mexico. That would include air strikes and American troops. However, we have a big hill to climb to do that because Mexico is benefiting monetarily from the drug sales. We don’t wont to upset Mexico do we?

So, what do we do? Invent a vaccine that eliminates the high from the drugs? Distribute the same drugs with an ingredient that causes violent pain or diaherea? I think that last answer has merit! If your son came home with violent pain and crappy pants, you would know what he was doing.

Chicago does, too, I believe. Durbin couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it.

It's hard to see anything, Dick, when this is your usual posture.

I thought that Chicago had pretty strict gun control laws, but lots of gangs and gang violence.

I guess gangs and drug money is the problem and has nothing to do with gun control laws.

Trump asked Zelensky to report any issues with corruption involving US money supplied to the Ukraine. Trump wanted full accountability.

Nancy Pelosi impeached Trump for this.

Oh, they have plenty of impulse. Problem is, they aren't ingrained with the morals and culture that would restrain them from acting on those impulses.
