Chicago: Despite handgun ban, city confiscates over seven thousand guns this year

Seven thousand two hundred thirty four. If Chicago is your home, that number tells you something about your city, and police say it's not necessarily good. As CBS 2's Kristyn Hartman reports, there have been 7,234 guns recovered or confiscated by Chicago Police so far this year. When you think about it, that's about one gun for every 400 people, in a city with an ordinance that prohibits them.

Typical CBS leftist ban-the-evil-guns-from-the-honest-citizens crap. Typical anti-gun lying with statistics. Coming from a network whose top shows (the CSI and NCIS franchises) absolutely depend on guns, this sort of "reporting" (I use the term advisedly) is hypocrisy.

Guarantee you 99.9% of those 7,234 guns came off gang bangers and other vermin.

And I think my signature truly fits here for what the people of Chicago must feel and think. They have be under some delusion if they think they're any safer and a ban on guns works and or is working???
