Note: We wish this story were satire, but the Democrat Mayor of Chicago is genuinely insane.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson continues to deny reality and responsibility for his crime-ridden city. Is he blaming his lax law enforcement policies? No. Is he blaming the criminals for their actions? Of course not. He’s blaming red states and their guns. Somehow, migratory guns from red states are settling in the Windy City and magically corrupting innocent Chicagoans, thus causing these otherwise peaceful, gentle souls to kill each other in the streets. Seriously, that's what Johnson is saying.
Here’s the insanity. (WATCH)
Brandon Johnson just blamed 'gun violence' in Chicago on Trump and red states:

He expects us to believe Red Republican states are responsible for Brandon Johnson's, Blue Democratic state committing gun violence? Shooting 58 people and 8 people k*lled??

Well, if Juicy Smolliet has taught me anything it's that Chicago is MAGA country.

"Trump’s fault."

Johnson fully expects sane Americans to be as gullible and stupid as the voters who put him into office.
Posters find it strange that red areas of states are not literal killing fields, but once a gun enters a blue area, massacres start immediately. How does this keep happening?
So Indiana must be the most dangerous state in the country right?

What a dumbass this guy is. Doesn't believe anything he is reading.
IQ of a doorknob, and an approval rating to match.

My brother lives in Chicago and trends liberal. He told me recently that most people think Johnson is an absolute idiot. He's only in his position due to the support of the Chicago teachers union.

It’s so obvious even the libs get it 🤣

Weird how the same crime isn't happening in these "red states" that Brandon is blaming.

It's almost as if the problem is not guns, but CRIMINALS WHO USE THEM.
They never seem to address this question.

Sounds like Chicago has a teachers union problem, which is just part of a larger Democrat problem.
Commenters say Johnson is unintentionally telling us Illinois and Chicago’s gun laws are utterly useless at preventing shootings. Could criminals be the reason these shootings keep happening, and not huge flocks of migratory hypnotic firearms?
Is this his way of telling us that criminals are disregarding the strict gun laws in Chicago by using guns they bring from other places? That's shocking. I thought that if you passed strict gun laws, the criminals would have the decency to obey them.

It’s true. The guns got up from Texas, walked themselves all the way into Chicago, and just started to blam blam blam all over the place. Total chaos.

It’s not the guns, and it’s not the red states. The shootings and murders in blue cities are caused by the criminals and the pointy-headed Democrat Party idiots who enable and excuse them. We're not going to give up our guns because Democrats are out of control. In fact, Democrats being out of control is a good reason for us to have firearms in the first place.
Editor’s Note: The radical left will stop at nothing to enact their radical gun control agenda and strip us of our Second Amendment rights.
