grinreaper Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Link? Chicago is making all kinds of headlines. The City shares a border with a state that takes the exact opposite approach than Chicago with regard to firearms. Laws? Everybody breaks them... :-( Laws are useless when different jurisdictions share close borders. Alcohol, firearms, fireworks... Make all the laws you want, but when it comes to the "fun stuff", the laws will just be broken... As I watch fireworks go off in back of my house (illegal in Illinois, but not 5 miles away in Indiana). What do you think people with guns do? Want to buy booze on Sunday in Indiana? Get the Jack here @ Illinois gas station, return to get the firearm or fireworks. It's simple clown, make more stringent laws in Illinois. It always works, just think of Capone and crowd.

ExiledInIllinois Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 just think if guns were legal in chicago, jesus! They basically are "legal"... That's why there is a problem. They flood across jurisdictions. Who's going to stop it? Big whippty do.
Chef Jim Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 They basically are "legal"... That's why there is a problem. They flood across jurisdictions. Who's going to stop it? Big whippty do. No that's not why there's a problem. If you make guns illegal you think this problem will go away or be diminished at all? Want to venture a guess how many of those shot were shot with legally owned guns?

Tiberius Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 How about when people can buy these? http://www.thedailybeast.com/israeli-military-buying-drones-that-can-hold-machine-guns
/dev/null Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 How about when people can buy these? http://www.thedailybeast.com/israeli-military-buying-drones-that-can-hold-machine-guns So should we ban drones? Or should we ban automatic weapons and grenade launchers? Again. Because this time we really really mean it?
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 Gun owners. Are you ready to kill to protect your family and or home? That is what it comes down to. Criminals don't give a ratsass. I own 3 guns and will shoot to kill if the need arises If I can't kill 2 or 3 people with 6 bullets what will dozen more rounds do from an automatic rifle but be sprayed across the room.

One sawed of shotgun will clear the whole room with one trigger pull. If you're SERIOUS about home defense, that's what you have.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 the good and bad about a sawed of shotgun you may need to get much closer to them than you want. You're in a home. the distance you're separated isn't that much.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 You're in a home. the distance you're separated isn't that much. Hoping a spray of pellets from 10 feet away will kill someone? Good luck. Stick with slugs and a long barrel.
boyst Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 Fathers day in Chicago. Is that a gathering of the candidates love this comment, beat me to it Gun owners.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted July 6, 2017 Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) you are not that naive are you? Ok let me try to explain. I don't believe you need a semi automatic rifle spraying bullets all across a room to kill some lowlife home invader. If you can't get the job done with a few bullets should you really be firing a gun? Edited July 6, 2017 by ShadyBillsFan

Says the dope who has no idea what it's like to fire a weapon under great stress, in the dark, after waking from a sound sleep in the middle of the night. You're watched far too many movies.
