More Proof That Gun Control Doesn't Work

14 people were shot in a matter of 4 hours in the city of Chicago last night. Chicago which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the country including a ban on handguns, magazines holding over 10 rounds, and what the media loves to call "assault weapons" is home to some of the highest violent crime rates in the country. Side note why when a gun is used to kill someone it is an assault weapon, but when someone is run over with a car or killed by someone with a hammer they are not referred to as an "assault vehicle" or "assault hammer". The gun did not commit assault the person who fired it did. OK so back to Chicago, with the gun control laws they have in place, which are similar to what many Democrats want put into place across the United States, there shouldn't be crimes committed with guns right? The problem with this theory is that criminals have guns and they are not going to be lining up at the community center to turn them in and follow the law. Civilian gun ownership is necessary to allow citizens to protect themselves from these crazy gun wielding criminals. A criminal is much less to shoot someone he is worried may shoot back. When are people going to being able to logically understand that an armed society is a polite society?
