Criminals dont follow the law, thats why they are criminals! They dont care about laws or care about breaking them. Thats why there are shooting all the time. The person without here is the honest citizen. There are over 1500 gang members in the chattanooga area, at least by police reports. Chattanooga is a very dangerous area. There have been gang wars at coolidge park and police tell me not to goto any park at night. Because of the crime. And here the city and county are saying we cant defend ourselves. Who are the elected officials for? The criminals? It appears that way! Billy long may not be the only corrupt official. They could be protecting their own interests by keeping us unarmed (for all we know)
