Rev. Jesse Jackson Arrested At Gun Shop Demonstration

why dont they sell guns in rich neighborhood and why do they sell them in poor neighborhoods???

I think he forgot what he was fighting for. I was laughing when he got arrested on the news then was like wtf.

YES PARENTING!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats the main issure!!!!!! When I was younf I could of easily gotten involved in gangs. But just the thought of coming home and getting my ass handed to me steered me clear away!! Plus the fact that gangs are redicously retarded and stupid!!!

""""Yo homie you in ma turf!!! Yo shall not be shot for wearing the wrong colors yo!!""


Is that not stupid!!!!!

Yeah the Thought of my dad taking of his belt and opening a can of whoop ass worked for me lol!!!

the whoop ass and the lectures stopped me...damn I hated the lectures.....just made you feel like chit

I say good that he got arrested. I used to live about 3 blocks away from Chuck's Gun Shop, and let's just say that Riverdale, IL isn't a good neighborhood, so there's a NEED for guns for the homeowners who can't afford to get out of that area. They need to be able to protect their belongings in the event of a break in, and that's a common occurance in the towns in that area (Calumet City, Dolton, Riverdale, Harvey, South Holland, Phoenix, Markham, Dixmoor, etc. for those familiar with the area). Chuck's has been there for over 20 years, and it's one of the most respected gun shops in the south suburbs of Chicago. The problem, according to Rev. Jackson, is that people make straw purchases (legal gun purchases to give them to people who can't legally own guns) at that particular shop, but closing it would have no impact on the problem, other than the straw buyers would simply have to travel a little farther to buy guns. Why close a legitimate business and take away their livelihood, just because it's in a bad neighborhood? It was a good neighborhood when that store opened. That's like saying you should close all businesses in bad areas. I don't get it.

Edit: I forgot to mention that Chuck's had been investigated by the ATF on straw purchases being made at that store sometime in the late 90's or early 2000's and the investigation showed that the store and its owners had no knowledge of straw purchases being made, and were not involved in any illegal activity. As a matter of fact, I believe the number of guns sold at that store that were used to commit crimes or murder were so low, that further investigation was deemed unnecessary.

I hope the cop that arrested him gets a medal. Maybee people will finally get an idea of how he really is.

Remember, "Guns don't kill people, Someone has to pull the trigger!!!"

hahahaha....Just heard this on the blue collar comedy tour from larry the cable guy: "Guns don't kill people, Husbands that come home early do."......hahahahaha I just had to add this in.
