The left continues to promote more laws to thwart this problem. The correct way to cull the herd would be an automatic twenty five years incarceration without parole for the use of a gun during the commission of a crime.

See: Paris Bataclan massacre. It shows that the "oh it's because states around Illinois have guns" is BS. Hell, one of those guns came from Obama's "Fast & Furious" debacle waaaay over across an entire ocean.

To be fair, even if you have concealed carry laws you're usually not allowed to take them into concerts, sporting events etc. so it wouldn't have changed anything.
Typically you're not going to have an event with 20k people open carrying, but even if there was, a carefully coordinated attack would cause an absolute total massacre.

In fairness Chicago's murder rates aren't really skyrocketing they are just being more accurately reported since Chicago PD was caught red handed doctoring their crime stats in the last 4 years or so.
One of many easy to find sources about this issue - http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/June-2014/Chicago-crime-statistics/

Those 5 "points" are old bullshit leftist rhetoric.
It's nothing new, and it's not even supported.
"If you're worried about the government taking your guns, they can just do it so don't even worry about it"
I mean Jesus Christ where to start with this kind of retarded reasoning?

No fucking kidding. Him and his one positive comment (literally) out of hundreds, and hundreds of ghost upvotes.
It couldn't be more blatantly obvious what hideous, slowly lurching monster is making the first steps onto our porch, at least for anyone with experience with manipulative SJW takeovers.
We don't do something while it's early, we're going to be the next Something Awful, NeoGAF, or Reddit in no time.
