It would help accuracy considerably if the shooters didn’t hold their pistols sideways...

since I’ve had a few classes and lots of practice, I can’t bear TV shows and movies.

One day, someone will have to suspend civil liberties and declare martial law to combat crime in the cities. If that someone turns out to be Trump, the “dictator” meme will have become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Chaos equals satanic briliance.

“Witnesses reported that the gunshots were fired from a dark-colored SUV.”

Still not the results I’ve been looking for. Some cities are averaging over 20% kill ratio. C’mon Chicago, you can do better.

Someday, good men are going to wade into those piles of trash selling dope and such on street corners and sweep them clean with no mercy. It will happen.

How many of those shootings involved clashes between DRUG gangs trying to monopolize their DRUG market. I am focusing on the illegal drug element because it is NEVER mentioned. They want to put the emphasis on the guns instead of the root problem--the illegal drug merchandizing. That's good for the Drug Cartels who want an unfettered ability to operate.
