Chicago's top cop responds

"From a law enforcement perspective, this [the Supreme Court decision] will no doubt make a police officer's job more challenging than it already is," Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis said, "particularly since a firearm is used in 75 percent of all murders committed in the city of Chicago."


It would appear that Police Supt. Weis doesn't quite grasp the implication of that statistic with regard to the efficacy of Chicago's gun-control laws, especially given that Chicago and D.C. regularly trade the dubious honor of having the highest murder rate of any city in the U.S.
Very well stated!
