Kamala Harris, mumbling Joe Bidens “missing a step” Vice President, has a great idea for how America can reduce gun violence. Elect more anti-second Amendment Democrats to enact more gun control laws.

The simplistic beauty of this response is that we have a baseline for whether solution looks like, and it rhymes with Chicago. The Windy City has a long, uninterrupted history of anti-second Amendment Democrat rule. It is a gun-grabbing, red-flag-waving, ammo-taxing mecca that allows us to measure the success of Kamala’s off-the-cuff plan.
Hey, Jackass is the premier resource for crime data and crime data history in Chicago, so let’s see how electing more gun-grabbing dems (for longer) has impacted violence in the City.
First, the shot clock. In the time it takes you to read this, another person will get shot. Ten minutes from when you finish reading, another person will have been murdered. One every 13 minutes and 13 seconds.
Year to date (2023), in this gun-grabbin’ Dem-controlled Mecca, over 1900 of its citizens have been shot, more than 1500 of those wounded, with 366 of them killed.
The Dem Way has resulted in 405 homicides this year, not all of them gun-related unless, by that, you mean the criminal stabbing or clubbing, or beating of others by criminals who know their victims are disarmed.
And it’s not just 2023. These are the murder rates through August 11th for previous years.
405 Homicides through Aug 11th is a bit lower than average, but there is no evidence that what Kamala claims is true.
It is a sad tale of another Democrat policy priority that produces exactly the opposite result of the one advertised. What is sadder still is that this policy failure takes hundreds of lives in Democrat-run cities all across America annually and crime has been on the rise. Cities where Dems have had complete control of the government, school system, and police force for many decades.
It’s dysfunctional deception, and nothing about it works.
But that explains why Kamala thinks it’s a great idea. Elect people who will swear an oath to a Constitution she admits they intend to break, and if a few more people die, they are also the depopulation party. And they can blame it on white people or guns from other states, the pay gap, gender bigotry, systemic racism, or underfunded schools. Anything but the truth.
