Chicago launches initiative to tackle rampant gun violence
[Iran Press TV] The US state of reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
has launched an initiative to tackle the rising gun violence in one of America’s largest cities.

The state has tasked a 50-member group of officers to crack down on the availability of guns in Chicago.

"The point of this investigations team — which is new and unique, and a first in its class — is to get the gun before it hits the streets at the trafficking level," Police Superintendent David Brown said at a news conference. "These third parties need to hear me loud and clear: We're coming for you, and we're going to try to charge you with the highest charge we can, if not in the federal system, then at the state attorney's office."

The recent spike in the number of shootings across the country has become a source of concern for many particularly since the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic began.

The illegal gun market is only one of the myriad factors contributing to the situation in the Untied States today.

"Do not buy guns for violent mostly peaceful people is our message, or you will pay the price for them by doing what we hope to be serious time," Brown added, addressing those who buy illegal guns. "Whatever they're paying you to go buy these guns ... it's blood money."

Chicago is no stranger to gun violence but like many other cities in the US it has seen a spike in crime within the past year.

My item #1 Gun Control solution.
All Socialists, Democrats, Liberal Politicians to turn in their firearms and wait 30 mins for the police to arrive like other citizens.

#2 Like North Carolina had back in the 1980's-to 90's a mandatory 12 year sentence for any Felony firearm related crime.

#4 They can't allow too much investigation by local, state, or federal authorities or their own corruption will be uncovered.

#5 So you send people in and you are told, "I know your name, where you live just as corrections officers are confronted. You can't get help now. So Biden will send in the military to do the dirty work and if they refuse; out they go, owning the government big bucks for their recruitment costs.

#6 t 10:30 P.M. on December 16, 1959,[248] Touhy and Walter Miller, a retired Chicago police detective who served as his bodyguard, were gunned down as the men entered the Alesia house.[248] Two or three men[249][250][251] stepped out of shadows as Touhy and Miller mounted the steps to the front door. Miller identified himself as a police officer, and the men pulled 12 gauge shotguns[248] from beneath their overcoats.

No messing around back then.I lived there back then.
