Rahm Emanuel, the mayor of Chicago, shows that he really has his finger on the pulse of gun crimes in his city according to an LA Times article<\/a> sent to us by ROS;<\/p>\n

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has proposed a slate of tough gun control measures that would subject gun shops to strict monitoring, including video surveillance of all purchases, in an effort to stem violence in a city beset with an unusually high number of gun deaths.<\/p>\n

The restrictions came after a federal court order in January forced Chicago to end its ban on gun sales in the city and gave officials until July to put in place regulations before the ban is lifted.<\/p>\n

The Emanuel administration in a report released this week makes a case for Chicago gun shops to videotape all sales, ban gun shops in 99.5% of the city and limit each gun buyer at a store to one purchase a month, except for relics and returns. Gun sellers would be subject to quarterly audits.<\/p>\n

In addition, gun shop workers would have to pass background checks and be trained to spot fake or \u201cstraw\u201d purchasers, such as a male gang member getting a girlfriend to buy his gun because he\u2019s ineligible.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, because that’s where male gang members are getting their guns – from gun dealers. Why don’t they mandate that criminals video their sales out of the trunks of their cars, too, I mean that would have about as much effect as these new laws. And then they could have all of the illegal gun dealers go through a quarterly audit.<\/p>\n

Why don’t they limit gun dealers to one sale a month, while they’re at it. On top of that, when criminals break into the gun shops that are packed in all right next to each other, require those gun thieves to video themselves and leave an SD card of their crime on the counter. <\/p>\n

I’m sure he’ll get reelected because he’s doing “something” to stop gun crime even though it’s completely useless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
