Why doesn't this info get more attention?

From Breitbart:


During a March 24 appearance on NBC's Meet the Press, the NRA's Wayne LaPierre explained that Chicago is big on gun control, small on enforcement of existing gun laws--and he asked why NBC News won't cover this.In fact, LaPierre told David Gregory that Syracuse University's track data on enforcement of federal gun laws in 2012 shows that "out of 90 jurisdictions in the country, [Chicago] ranked 90th."
This substantiates claims the NRA has been making for years. Namely, that the problem isn't a lack of gun laws but a lack of enforcement of existing gun laws.
LaPierre then asked Gregory:  Why doesn't NBC News start with, "Shocking news on Chicago. Of all the jurisdictions in the country Chicago is dead last on enforcement of federal gun laws?" Why doesn't the national press corps, with they're sitting there with Jay Carney and the President and the Vice President, why don't they say, "Why is Chicago dead last in enforcement of gun laws against gangs with guns, felons with guns, [and] drug dealers with guns?"To this, Gregory's meager response was: "And you support those as felonies, being charged as felonies?"
LaPierre responded that the NRA absolutely does. And not only that, he wants those who are charged with felonies to be taken off the street so they can't keep committing crimes for which law-abiding citizens are being blamed.
Said LaPierre: "If you're the President and the Vice President, and the Attorney General, and your job is to enforce these laws against...drug dealers, gangs, and felons that are walking around with guns in the street, and you don't do it? [Then] you bear some responsibility. It is a tragedy."

Simple - it doesn't fit the MSM agenda.  They're not interested in reporting the truth - only thing that matters is furthering their left-wing ideology.

They like to use the excuse that people cross state lines to adjoining states with less stringent gun laws and buy guns that are then given to gangbangers and criminals. If they know they were originally purchased  in another state then they obviously know what dealer they came from and who bought them. All they need to do is follow the paper trail and find out who violated the law. Seems pretty simple to me.

like all liberals they are broke


they want  more FEDERAL LAWS  so
they  can get  more FEDERAL MONEY  to eforce the laws

[SharonAnne]

if the problem is people crossing state lines to buy guns, why is the crime rate so much lower in those states? Answer, the problem is the people IN Chicago, not guns.

The places that have the most stringent gun laws. have the worst crime rates. Chicago, DC, NY, Conn. etc. etc.
 
Gun free zones = free fire zones,  you know like "picture shows"

You don't see this in the news because it does not further their gun grab agenda. They are not interested in facts, they just want us disarmed so they can do any thing they want with out the fear of being stopped.
That is one of the problems we have is getting the truth out to the people in the  middle that  need to see that there is a need for the 2ND. Amendment being kept in tact, with out the 2ND all the rest are gone.

What we have here is the fact that CITY dwellers for the most part are civilised to the point that the only thing they think about reloading is their Ipod. Or shooting a photo with it. Really these people just don't get it and don't wanna get it. They see no need to hunt, or use firearms for anything including their own protection.
 
They see no need have a second amendment! Really, they don't have a clue!
 They believe "guns" are bad and for the army, which they dont like either.
 
When the whistle blows they will march zombie like to the cave where the Morlocks wait to cook em!

I caught the tail end of a segment on MSNBC where a lady representing moms against guns or some such nonsense said the gun laws in Chicago didn't do any good because people could drive 20 minutes and be in Indiana,buy a trunk load of guns, and bring them back to sell on the streets of Chicago. Of course nobody on the panel challenged her. She suggested we needed stricter strawman  laws!

as I keep saying, lock and load
