Television Show Bias on gun control: Chicago PD investigates a gun show selling untraceable machine guns

Mar 22, 2019 | Featured

Chicago PD goes to a gun show in neighboring Wisconsin to find someone who is making “Cop Killer Machine Guns.” The machine guns are said to be “untraceable” and made by an underground machine shop. The notion that criminals readily obtain guns at gun shows is simply false. Gun shows account for less than one percent of crime guns (in 2016, the rate was 0.8%). The number of crimes committed with machine guns is essentially zero.

In the second video provided here, there are some other examples of the show’s arguments made in favor of gun control.

Officer Adam Ruzek (played by Patrick Flueger): “I just don’t think that the 2nd Amendment is meant to protect dudes who are making untraceable submachine guns.”

Detective Hailey Upton (played by Tracy Spiridakos): “The other good news is that the bullets from this gun will rip right through Kevlar.”

There was actually nothing special about the machine gun demonstrated in this show. Kevlar vests are simply not capable of stopping bullets from rifles.

    Seems funny to me that a program that shows corruption in politics and police abuse would take on such a campaign as something good, when beating shackled prisoners is portrayed as permissible.

    I would be interested to see what percentage of crimes are committed using machine guns as well, I do not remember reading of more than a hand full, ever…
