Model for Gun Control, CHICAGO, Has DEADLIEST September in 13 YEARS
Submitted by IWB, on October 6th, 2015
So this is what they are pushing for on a national scale? To leave the law abiding vulnerable to the criminals and the tyrants?
Obama was a community organizer in Chicago and still likes to call Chicago home. He was also a United States senator from Illinois.
Chicago’s current Mayor, Rahm Israel Emanuel, was most recently Obama’s White House Chief of Staff. So, essentially, White House policies are already in full effect in Chicago.
Consider Chicago a microcosm for the nation.
This is the shining example they hold up to us as what tougher gun control will look like?
Data: Chicago’s violence in September was especially brutal
A violent September in Chicago ended with more homicides than any other month this year and the second-most shootings, according to data kept by the Chicago Tribune’s breaking news desk. Though the summer months in Chicago have traditionally been the most violent, shootings last month decreased little from August and there were about 50 percent more shootings than September 2014.
Looking beyond 2012, last month was the city’s deadliest September since 2002, […] For two consecutive weekends there were more than 50 people shot, the first time that has happened in the four years that the Tribune has been tracking shootings.The charts below show shootings and homicides in Chicago since 2012.

They’re in full on assault mode again, complete with legalized propaganda.

White House: Obama Preparing More Executive Actions on Gun Control
The White House confirmed that President Obama was preparing a series of executive actions on gun control to match his recent passion on the issue after the latest mass shooting in Oregon.
“It’s a high priority and will continue to be until we start to see more progress on this issue in this town,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters today at the press briefing.
Earnest said he would “quibble” with anyone who criticized the president for not voicing any specific gun control proposals during his press conference, asserting that the White House was working behind the scenes for more executive actions on guns.
“I can tell you that they’re not stumped, they’re continuing to review the law that’s on the books and continuing to consult with legal authorities but also others who may have ideas about what steps that can be taken to keep guns out of the hands of criminals,” Earnest said.

Rolling Stone Liberal Gun Control Propaganda Laying it on Thick, Oregon School Shooting

This act of campus terror is just the latest mass shooting in America’s epidemic of gun violence. October 1 is the 274th day of 2015; Umpqua college represents at least the 264th mass shooting in the country this year, according the Gun Violence Archive. (For the record: a “mass shooting” is defined as involving at least four gunshot victims, excluding the shooter.)
This problem is unique to the United States in the developed world. […]
“Today’s NRA stands astride some of the ugliest currents of our politics, combining the ‘astroturf’ activism of the Tea Party, the unlimited and undisclosed ‘dark money’ of groups like Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS, and the sham legislating conducted on behalf of the industry through groups like the American Legislative Exchange Council. […]'”But it’s clear that not even sensible gun laws can fully shield Americans from attacks like these. Oregon passed a strong background check for gun purchases that went into effect in August.

“Shocker: States with Strong Gun Control Laws Have Fewer Gun Deaths”
[…]
Slate pretty much cleared up this question using data from The Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. The center graded each state’s gun control laws: An “A” grade means the laws are strict, and an “F” means they’re liberal. (States like Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York fall into the former category; Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi are in the latter.) […]As you can see, in 2013, states with stricter gun control laws had far fewer gun deaths. As Slate points out, correlation doesn’t equal causation, but other studies and statistics, including the fact that countries with more guns have higher rates of homicide, seem to point toward a simple solution to fewer gun-related death: Fewer guns.

Among advanced countries, the U.S. has the highest rate of gun ownership and the highest homicide rate. What explains all these patterns? So far, gun control critics have only provided weak theories about culture or mental illness. Maybe it’s the guns.
