No amount of gun control on regular citizens is going to make a damn bit of difference.

"Chicagos murder rate has hit that magic 500 number. Baltimores murder rate has passed 200. In Philly, its up to 324, the highest since 2007. In Detroit, its approaching 400, another record. In New Orleans, its almost at 200. New York City is down to 414 from 508. In Los Angeles, its over 500. In St. Louis its 113 and 130 in Oakland. Its 121 in Memphis and 76 in Birmingham. Washington, D.C., home of the boys and girls who can solve it all, is nearing its own big 100.
Those 12 cities alone account for nearly 3,200 dead and nearly a quarter of all murders in the United States. And we havent even visited sunny Atlanta or chilly Cleveland.
These cities are the heartland of Americas real gun culture. It isnt the bitter gun-and-bible clingers in McCain and Romney territory who are racking up a more horrifying annual kill rate than Al Qaeda; its Obamas own voting base."
"Americas murder rate isnt the work of the suburban and rural homeowners who shop for guns at sporting goods stores and at gun shows, and whom news shows profile after every shooting, but by the gangs embedded in the urban areas controlled by the Democratic machine. The gangs who drive up Americas murder rate look nothing like the occasional mentally ill suburban white kid who goes off his medication and decides to shoot up a school. Lanza, like most serial killers, is a media aberration, not the norm."
"Obamas pretense that there needs to be a national conversation about rural American gun owners is a dishonest and cynical ploy that distracts attention from the real problem that he and politicians like him have sat on for generations.
We do not need to have a conversation about the NRA. We need to have a conversation about Chicago."
