    Why do you suppose the natives call Anchorage "Los Anchorage"? ;-)

    "More than half of Alaska's population of 730,000 live in the Anchorage metropolitan area. Anchorage is basically a Sanctuary City. Often referred to by Alaskans as, "Los Anchorage." Criminals and gangs now cast a blanket of fear over the city. Shootings, stabbings and general mayhem are on the rise. There are unsolved serial killings. Many areas are unsafe. Uncontrolled illegal immigrants roam freely throughout the land. Meanwhile the native population is increasingly demonized, restricted and taxed beyond endurance.

    Alaska endures some of the highest suicide, substance abuse, domestic abuse, sexual assault, violent crime and sexually transmitted disease rates in the nation. Substandard housing and an insufficient sanitation, transportation and utility infrastructure further hamper progress. Vast regions of Alaska resemble third world conditions without running water, sewer or on-grid power. Corrupt public policy has perpetuated the economic and moral poverty and lack of development throughout much of Alaska."

    Democrat pols run cities like Anchorage, Baltimore, Detroit ... Republican pols are, as usual, indifferent.

    When will you guys ever get it into your head that this is a societal issue not a poltical one. You have got to stop wanting to get the opportunity to shoot one another or nothing will ever change. Hollywood gunplay isn't real and the rest of the developed world knows that.... why don't you ?

    It's a city that does not enforce federal immigration laws. You think Mexicans are going to Anchorage!

    Of course they are. Why wouldn't they? I thought you were citing Alaska because you were familiar with the state.

    "As cocaine and crack abuse surged in the 1980s, so too did the number of gangs and gang members in what some Alaskans began to refer to as “Los Anchorage.”
    And as the violence associated with street-level narcotics sales began to increase, there was hesitation among law enforcement officials to apply the “gang” label to the new type of crimes they were seeing.
    Street gang members from the Lower 48 moved north in greater numbers in the late 1980s to escape trouble and to make money, the police say.
    “We started seeing tagging for example, or graffiti, and then there were a lot of fights and some of them started to involve weapons,” former Anchorage Police Chief Walter Monegan said."

    Of course they do. Illegal aliens are attracted to sanctuary cities. Are you under the impression that only Mexicans are illegal aliens?

    Again, such pertains to the use of a firearm, not the mere ownership or possession of a firearm.

    Nonsense, it is always about political power and disarming the people. Europeans should have learned that lesson - but they apparently can't.

    Gun control schemes always result in more crime. Surely you know that by now.

    Anchorage attracts illegal aliens from all over the world. Many gangs compete for the drug trade in a sanctuary city with a failed criminal justice system.
    Kind of like Chicago. You know - a DP run Urban Hell Hole.

    No what it boils down to is whether you want to get the chance to shoot someone or whether you don't. Barbarism versus civilisation really

    It violates the rights when not legally owned, because only those guns in possession of unpermitted people are actually involved in the vast majority of shootings. Is that hard to understand. The other infantile idea is to brag about people with permits being less likely to commit gun crimes then sit there and deny that legally permitting people who own guns is reasonable. Only guns in possession of people can be used to commit crimes. If you can explain to me how non possessed guns can shoot people, do it.
