Good thing Chicago bans gun ownership by law-abiding civilians!
Otherwise, goodness knows how bad this weekend of gang violence might have been!
A violent and deadly weekend continues in Chicago. At least 12 people have been shot, two of them killed, since Saturday morning. This comes after at least 20 people were shot, four of them killed, from Friday night through early Saturday.
A 28-year-old man was shot and killed at an auto body repair shop on the Southwest Side Saturday morning. Raul Lemus was shot in the stomach at 2520 W. 59th St. at about 11:20 a.m.
Lemus, of 4630 S. Talman Av., died several hours later at Stroger Hospital, making him the sixth person killed in Chicago since Friday night. Police said the shooting appeared to be gang related.
Also Saturday morning, Michael Giles, 26, was shot and killed inside his home at 336 N. Avers Av. Harrison Area detectives are investigating.
Because, as everyone knows, if you keep “assault rifles” out of the hands of the law-abiding citizen, gang-bangers will be disarmed.
Really!
In another case, a suspect toting an AK-47 has been charged with murder and three counts of attempted murder after allegedly killing a man and shooting at police. Bennie Teague of 6200 S. Sacramento Av. is due in bond court Sunday afternoon.
It’s amazing no one was hurt during the shootout between police and Teague, who was firing an assault rifle.
(…other than the guy he’s already murdered from among the pack of defenseless sheeple that he could have killed before the police arrived, naturally).
Police say the gunman opened fire on them Friday night at 110th and South Union. They tracked him down after he allegedly shot and killed 34-year-old Marcus Hendricks inside a plumbing business a few blocks away.
Y’know, it’ll only be a few more decades of complete disarmament before the people of Chicago will be rendered safe from this kind of thing!
You don’t know if I have a gun in my home. I might, I might not. While you listen to the deep booming bark of my great big dog, ponder that question before your unlawful entry.
At the Jason Lewis Tax Rally I must admit I felt fairly secure in the presumption that I was surrounded by perhaps 1000 conceal/carry permit holders who were packing.

Isn’t it always the case? It is unfortunate for them that the “more time” and “more money” pleas lose their charm after the tenth or so time on the same topic. So much for “reality” and “science” I guess.
This Gun-Free Zone conjures up a completely different image for me… I wish I could take advantage of it, but I’d probably only get a junky gun.
Sort of along the lines of the guys in LA who buy junk guns at swap meets and then turn them into gun buybacks to pocket the profit, eh Badda?
Hmmm… there’s an idea! Damn, I’m behind the curve. 😉
