Of course crime is a police matter, and the Chicago Police Department, though, has come under scrutiny. The Department of Justice is expected to release soon findings from an investigation into the Chicago Police Department which stems from the shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald which was caught on tape. Another former Chicago police commissioner, Garry McCarthy, recently told the program "60 Minutes" that the department is in crisis and the city is in a, quote, "state of lawlessness," unquote. |

Here's an idea. Instead of letting them out on ridiculously low bail, time served, and short sentences and probation, lock them up for ten years on the first offense.
I guarantee that will cut down on repeat gun offenses. The miscreants have figured out how to game the system and the non punishment and short sentences do not deter future misbehavior. |
