Chicago Police: "60% of all guns in Chicago come from Indiana, Wisconsin, and Mississippi."
And no matter how you want to spin it, Indiana has some of the weakest gun laws of any state in the US. Also, Chicago does not have some of the "strictest gun laws in the country" like the NRA always likes to (falsely) point out as an argument as to how gun control doesn't work. New York City and LA have far stricter gun laws, and homicides in those cities are at near record lows.
To that end Vancouver has had 6 homicides in 2018 so far, and that's actually up from 2017 when we had 19 for the year.
What the heck does a keyboard warrior from Canada know about Indiana gun laws? Just what they read in the fake news. Even Giffords has Indiana ranked right in the middle of gun laws at #24. Chicago Police have said that the lack of tough sentencing is driving crime and murder because the cops are always chasing the same perps, it is like a terrifying groundhogs day. FiveThirtyEight, not a conservative source for sure, says that since the McDonald police shooting video release, the city has seen a drop in arrests for homicides and non-fatal shootings and a "severe gun violence spike".
