    The persistence of this myth is laughable—in no small part because it's a fiction designed to drive an NRA narrative that any gun regulation is a bad, senseless, ineffectual regulation, holding up Chicago as Exhibit A. New York used to play the same role in the national consciousness—of the evil liberal empire's effective capital—until 9/11 hit and suddenly NYC was America's bleeding heart.

    For the year in question in that chart (2015), Chicago is all the way down at #25 for murder rates in cities with 100,000+ population. (And here is another link for fun that breaks down cities even further by population boundaries.)

    St Louis, Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans, and Birmingham were the "top" five, and, from your state, Milwaukee rounded out the top-ten at #10. FearlessLeader would be glad to know Savannah was #13 that year; Atlanta, too, was higher than Chicago, at #19.

    Violent crime in Chicago is highly localized; it's sad, it's a problem, and I'm by no means dismissing it. However, if you're looking for the most violent, dangerous cities in the US, you have to look pretty far down the list to find Chicago—and there are quite a few down in that deep-red gun-lax south (which the NRA would rather not talk about).

    I find that a peek at tables that include firearm deaths and murders per capita, broken down by state, is always instructive.

    its disgusting cause the religious right has sold their souls in their support of these people now?

    The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.

    One was actual evidence and one was accusations? Do you not acknowledge there is a difference?

    "ended his career as soon as the 1st dick pic surfaced"

    ... this is a joke, right?

    I've seen Wiener propped up twice now - and I'd just suggest that y'all do your homework on this one.

    I'd argue that he got one shot at rehabilitation, rather than two, but I take the point that it was one too many.

    Sorry, to clarify, I meant propped up in two instances recently on this forum.

    Gotcha. It's important to clarify some of the circumstances in which our Weiners get propped up.
