Since statements like that are amenable to falsification, let’s look at the facts. The chart below shows where the stolen and trafficked guns confiscated in Illinois came from.

Of more than 4400 or 1 in 16 of the guns “recovered” i Illinois, most of them in Chicago,. Since Mississippi provides only a small fraction of the guns recovered, Lightfoots accusation has been falsified.

And when you actually look at Chicato’s crime numbers and compare the dates restrictive gun laws were put in place, and the reaction echoed by the crime rates, it is easy to see that in Chicago’s case gun laws triggered a rise in crime. Gun laws did that because that is the sole factor that agrees with the dates, from ABC’s first anti-gun editorial in December 1963. tp 1968’s FOID law, to Made Man and alderman Fred Roti’s gun ban of 1982, right down to today, each and every restrictive gun law has produced more violent firearms facilitated crime. Just as it has everywhere else.

And now the Mayor is talking about more gun control, and reinstating the total ban that was overturned by the Supreme Court’s McDonald decision. So it is probable that Chicago will set a new record this year or next for murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults.

Not because the facts point to any need for MORE gun laws. Instead, the facts point to a desperate need for Federal preemption of all existing gun laws, to be replaced by one uniform national law that allows any citizen with the money to buy whatever gun pleases them.
