In Chicago, local political leaders have tried to rebrand gang violence as gun violence. In reality, guns don’t shoot up Windy City neighborhoods, but gang bangers certainly do. And here we are, almost five months after Governor Pritzker signed a gun and magazine ban, and gang members fearlessly unload on their rivals, killing one and wounding at least three others.
To add insult in injury, one of the 16-year-olds who were targeted by this attack raised a pistol and fired shots at police officers who were responding to the full-auto volley of gunfire.
