Chicago Politicians Are Murderers.

Again, the laws that prohibit meaningful self-defense in Chicago assisted a mass murderer. Chicago’s gun laws very effectively disarmed the law-abiding workers of a downtown law firm but did not disarm a mass killer. Chicago politicians that enacted those gun laws were willing accomplices to the actual murders.

How many more law-abiding people will be forced to go unarmed to be robbed, raped or murdered in cities where the predators have all manner of deadly weapons?

The decades old experiment in gun control has failed because it’s simply unworkable. Gun laws only have meaning for the law-abiding that prefer to obey the law. As for violent criminals these gun laws have no meaning whatsoever.

Guns save lives and that’s exactly why we train and arm our cops with them. In modern times all but a tiny handful of states have allowed the law-abiding the right to carry firearms for legitimate self-defense. Illinois, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia still have absolute bans and prohibitions that actually protect and assist violent criminals.

New York, and California have incredibly cumbersome, gun permit systems that only help the wealthy and politically connected residents while leaving everyone else vulnerable to victimization. How can this be in a country that claims to provide, equal protection under the law?

In recent times with the help of computers tracking both concealed weapon permit holders and crime have definitively proven that issuing concealed weapons permits in no way increases crime or accidents. The fact is that because of these lawfully carried firearms more crimes are prevented without even firing shots. Another benefit is that the permit-holder's guns are not sitting in homes or car trunks waiting, unattended for burglars.

Call or e-mail all of your politicians today and tell them to give law-abiding Americans the right to meaningful self-defense through a nationwide right to carry concealed weapons.
