The article makes it sound like the gun shot people by itself.
And this gun was a mass murderer.
Nothing in the article about arresting the people responsible for the shootings.

So they are admitting - it all goes back to
criminal activity.
Yet these same people will turn around and try to use this to justify additional "gun control" laws. Hello, anyone home upstairs? This story opens up with a criminal act - that's what criminals do by definition, break laws. Enacting more laws will not deter someone who has already demonstrated a callous disregard for the law.
How about we focus on the law enforcement failures in Chicago - where apparently in 26 different criminal acts the perpetrator(s) were able to continue to use the same tools before only getting caught after the 27th.

“believed”
“appeared”
There is no prove the gun was used in 27 shootings.

I carried a Glock 17 professionally. The serial number on mine was 9X19.

That’s a busy little black fella. I wonder how many docs can be linked to stitching him up to go out and shoot someone else.

Cmon man.... the criminal is the victim nowadays. Poor guy was taken advantage of by a gun.
To: rellimpank
And when they catch a perp using it, he’ll have 30 felony arrests. He’ll be on parole, the prosecutors will refuse to ask for bail and recommend he be released back into the community, again. And then the Mayor will say they need more gun control.

This article exposes the problem of the gun theft loophole.
As it stands right now, there is no requirement for a gun thief to pass a background check. FedGov needs to pass a law requiring all thieves to pass a background check before they can steal a firearm.

So what?! The gun ran way from Wisconsin to Chicago and starting shooting people?!

The Glock polygonal rifling is notoriously difficult to trace back to a particular firearm.
I wonder how they linked 27 shootings to this particular gun.
My suspicion is it has been done with regular police work, confessions, and plea deals.

In various 1970s TV shows it was a bought handgun that escaped the owner and went on a killing spree. This was brought on by the murder of Bobby Kennedy by a Palestinian Immigrant.
Streets of San Francisco,
Quincy M.E. (”We’ve got to stop IT before IT kills again!”),
A Gun in The House,
and about any crime show of the time.
Anti-gun propaganda was thick back then.
