ReplyDeleteApparently Chicago's strict gun laws may not have the results they were expecting.
ReplyDeleteBlack lives matter.
ReplyDeleteMan, they really should ban guns in Chicago.
ReplyDeleteYou moron , do you honestly believe the thugs will turn in their guns because of the law? Come down off of that cloud and join the real world.
DeleteThat was sarcasm. Guns are already banned in the city and crime is higher than most other places. Youre the moron.
ReplyDeleteWho cares it's Chicago.
ReplyDeleteDon't care!!! Let them kill each other all day long. You want to be a bad ass, die like one.
