I wonder when other citys will follow this strict stance?

Gun related murders last year by city:

Detroit (metro)
Population 993,000
Gun related murders = 307
3.1 per 100k

Philadelphia (metro)
Population 1,450,000
Gun related murders = 336
2.3 per 100k

Los Angeles (county)
Population 3,610,000
Gun related murders = 677 (LA has more murders than Aid victims and traffic deaths combined)
1.9 per 100k

New York (metro)
Population 7,940,000
Gun related murders = 294
0.04 per 100k

It's obvious to me the threat in NY is working!
Interesting. Do you have the website for those stats? Does it have D.C. or more California cities available?
