My buddies, all gun owners, hunters and all-around great guys who believe in self-defense with a firearm often bring up the statistics of those wounded versus those dead in the on going thuggery of third-world Chicago, Illinois.
So many wounded so few dead.
But why they ask. And I tell them.
Spraying into crowds, running gunfights, poor practice habits, not enough range time, unfamiliarity with their weapon, shooting from a moving vehicle, poor light, firing when drug induced and on and on and on. There is no end to the reasons why these thugs continue to miss and have such a poor ratio of shots fired per number of deaths.
The only winners in Chicago are the funeral parlors, ammo manufacturers, E. R. personnel, EMT folks, window manufacturers, physical therapists, big pharma, medical crowd, fire department personnel and on and on and on.
The drug and turf wars continue unabated.
Day after day, year after year.
