If the city, or the mayors office had proposals on the table that would legitimately curb what is happening in that city, such as what llwhiteoutll has outlined, then I would take their argument for furthering restrictions on the law abiding in good faith. Since they cannot or will not take measures to actually slow down this rash of gun crime in the city, then their proposals are nothing more than ear candy for the easily swayed who hold a vote in their hand. Political capital if you will.
More needs to be done in terms of crime prevention for youth, and tighter enforcement of smuggling. Otherwise these sort of events will not slow down, as these people have no respect for the law, and more laws aimed at those who already respect the law are nothing more than platitudes for the masses
