This is NYC, but it speaks volumes......
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — After another tragic weekend of gun violence, including the death of a 1-year-old, two members of the Black community called on the NYPD to bring back the recently disbanded Anti-Crime Unit to help get guns off the street.
CBS2 political reporter Marcia Kramer has more on the story.
It was a dramatic moment — Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams holding up a pair of baby shoes Monday after a 1-year-old became the latest victim of gun violence, caught in the crossfire at a family barbecue just hours before.
“Babies are not supposed to be wearing these in a coffin,” Adams said.

Perhaps Virginia is not at fault for your badly constructed societies.
If guns weren’t so easy to get in Virginia, many of those other states would have less violence too. The problem is everyone in Virginia already HAS a gun (or ten) so the gun sellers in VA lure people in from other states to sell their guns to. Other states require ID, background checks, waiting periods, gun licenses, etc. Virginia does none of that. Just walk into the local Walmart and buy a uzi. Or go to any of the hundreds of gun shows and buy a machine gun, no questions asked. It’s insanity.
Ummmm I bought a gun in VA and most certainly had to go through a background check.
Cite?
Background checks for gun purchases is a law, bimbo.
And I suppose you think people who make money selling guns that are used to kill children worry about laws? Ha! Get a clue idiot.

Another one happened just a few blocks from a million-dollar house people are arguing over in the Real Estate forum. I guess the naysayers are right, this neighborhood really hasn't transitioned enough to justify the cost.
Seriously? The east side of North Cap is NE and the west side is NW. Did you just arrive in town?

Forget about gun control. You wanted to defund the police - you got it. People are on their own and will HAVE to defend themselves as best they can. Don't even bring up gun control issue. It's not going to happen. VA is already 94% gun sanctuary state, do you need more of that?

Dumb retort. Look up the laws.

You have no idea what you are talking about.... the bolded confirms it.
And, why is the gun violence rate in VA lower than other areas? You would think that if guns are so easy to come by, the rate would be high in VA too.

DC could at least pass it’s own laws banning guns though. It can’t do that if it’s not a state.
I agree; it's total insanity. But so is the poster who claims that if DC became a state, this would somehow magically change.
