I feel safer already


iconSpoons sheds some light on Philadelphia's idiotic plan to cut down on violence. There have been 21 murders in 8 days, and it's all the government's fault for being too lenient. Apparently murderers are lining up to get gun permits before they commit their heinous deeds, and up until now officials have been issuing them permits.

[Mayor] Street has declared the violence throughout the city a crisis and as a result has ordered the full review of police department policies and has suggested a full moratorium on the issuing of gun permits.
I think the Mayor should also consider revoking the gun permits of the murderers who committed these heinous acts against their fellow man. With their gun permits gone, they'll be unable to commit murder. Hell, you probably won't even have to throw them in jail.

I wonder if this suggestion of a full moritorium is an admission that they are complicit in the muders. I mean, if they need a moritorium on issuing permits by the law and he believes that that is a factor in the homicide levels, then they must be doing something illegal.

Bloody stupidity. Major political posturing. This dolt probably hasn't any idea if there is any relationship between the crimes and the issue of legal gun permits. I'd put large money that none of the homicides were performed by a person with a legal permit.

This guy needs a slap up side the head and a lesson in logic.

I live an hour from Philly, this is typical of the lunacy perpetuated there. It's like having a little piece of Kalifornia right in our own back yard. What an insane stupid idea.

This takes idiot to a whole new level.

Honestly, what are these people smoking? And did they bring enough for the whole class?

Sounds like the old philosophy of "Do something, even if it's the wrong thing to do". In other words, they are trying to convince the public that they are doing something about it, and hoping no one notices that it is completely unrelated. Makes me wonder if these people are suffering from the same mental ailment as the idiots in San Francisco.

The only happy news about this is that ALL of these politicians are DEMOCRATS! What a bunch of morons. This is the kind of thinking that is leading the Democratic Party off of the cliff.
