That's Quite Some Collection

According to Abraham, there are 100 million illegal guns floating around the city, most of them stolen.
According to Cousin G, who sent me this link, "With a population of just under 1.6 million, there are therefore almost 63 illegal guns for every resident of the city..."

Don't you just love "authorized journalists," you know, the folks who are supposed to question and investigate government claims, the way they blindly accept every "official" utterance as Gospel and follow in lockstep with the agenda...?

No, David, I don't love those authorized propagandists. They betray us just like the power-hungry politicians do.

100 million "illegal guns" (whatever that means) in a city of 1.6 million? That's probably several guns for every round of ammo.

"Money" Quote (literally):

"This is, for us, a pilot program," State Sen. Vincent Fumo said. "There can be much more money if it's proven successful."

And there you go folks, let define sucess for them, you know, to keep the gravy train rolling for "The Gun Violence Task Force".

"The Gun Violence Task Force is made up of special investigative teams, including four detectives and an assistant district attorney. Most of the investigators are former police officers and detectives with experience in homicide."

Ex-cops looking for more money from "Uncle".

I love this line from the article:

"According to Police Commissioner Sylvester Johnson, 86 percent of homicides in Philadelphia are caused by handguns."

The other 14% are caused by knives, cars, shotguns, bottles, sharp sticks and hands I guess.

See? The reason the mob is into the concrete business so heavily in NYC is for the weight cement shoes provide for holding the hit folks on the bottom of the East River.

In Philly not so much, their armament holds them down. Saving the mob a ton of money and concrete.

Sort of like: NYC-get 'em, set 'em, and wet 'em.

Philly-Just thump 'em and dump 'em.

No,no,no Sean, you don't understand. Going to the gun store will only get you legal guns. You are 63 guns shy of your "illegal" gun quota. Those are in addition to your legal guns.

No, Straightarrow, You don't understand. According to the Salacious Socialist Elite in D.C., ANY gun I own is illegal, n'cest pas? I have enough over ten round magazines, bayonet lugs, bayonets, hand hold triggers, flash suppressors, and arsenals of cartridges to make a billy goat puke. But the point is well taken. I just don't know anyone who is relaxed about the law enough to buy "illegal" guns from. Maybe the local cop shop could help me......

They sure seem to recycle anything of value in their evidence rooms. Perhaps you are right.
