Putting Things Into Perspective -- More Assault Guns In Chicago than In Fallujah, Iraq

BOB OWENS:

Fifty-four shootings in two weekends. Shot-up bodies recovered in groups of three and five. Is this Ramadi? Basra? No.

Welcome to Chicago.

Note the fruits of gun control. Plus this on the Chicago P.D.'s up-armament: "If the department arms 10,000 of their officers with M4s, the police will have 9,900 more assault rifles in Chicago than the U.S. Marines presently have in Fallujah, Iraq."

My Comment: Pakistan is now a far more violent place than Iraq. More U.S. servicemen in uniform were killed during President Clinton's administration than President George Bush's administration......As I said, its all a matter of perspective.
