Down in Oakland also. Maybe the neighborhood is waking up, or there has
been a consolidation in the drug industry.

Why? It's spectacular news! It says nothing about having reduced the number of guns, but it does say
something about getting kids off the street and into summer jobs. I'll bet if they got them back in
school, educated them, and convinced fathers to raise their kids, the number of murders would go
down even more!

Don't ya think?

It's also interesting that Illinois became the last state in the nation
to pass a concealed carry law. Took effect in July, 2013.

I was reading an article that said in the worst areas they still have
about the same murder rate they had. Rahm is picking the low fruit.
That is good if you lived in a marginal area tho.
Those people do seem to be safer.
The question is how long it will take until we start hearing about
oppressive police tactics.

The city to watch will be New York. With the law and order mayors
gone, will it revert to the Dinkins, Koch ******** it was.

I keep waiting for jps to return and discuss this, but I guess he's had enough.

No, we have a Constitution. But, in any case, shooting is fun, Don. Have you ever taken a pistol or
a rifle to a range? There are lots of folks who enjoy shooting, even some of the folks here.
