You can not only run those numbers by city, but by county, and precinct within a city, literally isolate the problem down to a few square miles. Inside the zone, total lawlessness and chaos. Outside the zone, perhaps not Mayberry, but a lot closer to Peoria than many people realize.

Within the zone, you can further isolate things down to the fact that about 3% of the total national population is committing about 70% of the homicides.

We all knew this was coming

We all knew this was coming, although many will still try to say "no one is trying to take your guns away". But that's exactly what the have been doing and now it's spreading.

In every instance there will be exemptions for government agents to retain the same weapons we will be banned from buying or possessing under these proposed laws.

In Washington state, background checks on private sales was dead on arrival at the legislature, twice, I believe. It was passed on public initiative driven by the 4 urban counties on Puget Sound.

This bill could be an Initiative in a year or two, very easily. I have no doubt it would pass, given the leftist media and continual propaganda.
