Reasonable, effective gun regulations will over time reduce the number of guns crossing state lines into Illinois from surrounding red states with lax gun laws.

That's assuming most of the weapons used in Chicago shootings are legally obtained. For any of the ones not legally obtained, changing gun laws won't change things. There's a pretty large black market for guns, particularly in urban areas with strict gun laws.

Wrong. You know as well as I that there is a difference between a gang shooting and some demented RWNJ Incel deciding to permanently empty out a taco Bell.

Yes, there are a lot of differences.

The racist far right shooter is more useful for pushing preferred narratives and will thus get more airtime. Gang shootings are old news, and while the left pretends to care about urban poor people, they really don't.

A while back Crepitus posted data to demonstrate that mass shootings are on the rise. That data included a slew of gang related incidents so if there is a difference it must be something he only recently acknowledged.

Alleged Thwarted Mass Shooter Left Trail Of Racist And Anti-Transgender Posts

A Connecticut man who had amassed an arsenal of tactical weapons and body armor, and who police say may have been preparing for a mass shooting, left a trail of virulently racist and anti-trans postings online.

TPM found that social media accounts registered to Norwalk, Connecticut resident Brandon Wagshol both reflected elements of the police accusations against him and contained rants against minorities.
Wagshol was arrested, officials said, after a joint FBI-local police investigation on a tip that the 22-year old was trying to import “large capacity rifle magazines from out of state.” During the investigation, Wagshol wrote a Facebook post “that showed his interest in committing a mass shooting,” leading to a raid on his house and his arrest, the FBI and local police said in a joint statement.
Police say that they uncovered a weapons cache during the raid, including titanium body armor and a combat helmet.
An Instagram account linked to Wagshol’s Facebook account shows someone who appears to be Wagshol wearing body armor and, in a separate picture, a combat helmet.

Yep. Funny how that works. It only counts when it advances the agenda.

It's kind of like how gun death stats usually include suicides, but the media doesn't typically make a distinction between those and homicides. If more people realized that about 60% of gun deaths are suicides, they'd probably view gun policy differently.

Also, they like to correlate gun ownership rates with gun death rates by state. What they fail to mention is that about 90% of gun deaths in a lot of rural states with high gun ownership are suicides (like in Wyoming). Without that context, it makes it seem like Wyoming and other rural states have some serious homicide problem.
