Mattioli said that more gun laws would not solve the problem
“We do not need complex laws,” Mattioli continued. “I am a big proponent of individual accountability and enforcement, so if there are going to be laws, we should enforce them.”
He then continued by dealing with gun laws in Chicago. “Chicago has some of the toughest gun laws in the country and I would say to people who wanted to have a civil discussion on the topic that I don’t think the gun laws are protecting the people, let alone the 500 alone, who perished last year in that city.”
“What have those laws done to make Chicago a safer city?” he asked. “Nothing, I propose.”
He then asked, “Can’t we do better?” His response was an unwavering “Yes.”
Mattioli then makes the point that all of us on this site have made time and time again. “Criminals, by definition, break the law. What we experienced at Sandy Hook, did (he) break the law? Of course, (he) broke the law.” With reference to the 500 killed in Chicago,he said those that killed them broke the law.
He then said, “Is one more law….I don’t care if you named it ‘James’ law’….I don’t want it.”
“I think we have more than enough (laws) on the books,” he said. “We should hold people individually accountable for their actions and we should enforce laws appropriately and I would say that we are not currently enforcing them appropriately.”
People then stood and applauded his statements.
