Mayor Lori Lightfoot of Chicago is presiding over a marked increase in the number of murders in her city. By July 2020, there had been more murders in Chicago than there were in all of 2019. In response, Lightfoot has geared up and taken the fight to ... Indiana?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.
Lightfoot claims that the rise in violence is the fault of everyone other than herself, the city’s council and the people who live in the city she governs. “We are being inundated,” she complains, “with guns from states that have virtually no gun control, no background checks, no ban on assault weapons—that is hurting cities like Chicago.” |

ALL states have a background check. NICS . Has been that was for a quarter century now.
Lightfoot plays the libtard card for blaming everyone else for her own shortcomings. These libtard politicians are fundamentally immature, childish personalities, not true functioning adults. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
