Gun Control Failure of the Year - Chicago hits 500 Homicides for 2012

Still think there's no correlation between gun control and violence? 

Here's your gun control failure of the year. Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the Bradys were unavailable for comment:

Chicago has hit a dismal milestone. A late night shooting has marked the city's 500th homicide for the year.

40-year-old Nathaniel Jackson was shot on the city's West Side around 9 p.m Thursday. He was pronounced dead shortly after midnight. The victim's family has confirmed his identity.

Chicago Police say Jackson was shot in the head while standing outside a convenience store at Augusta Boulevard and Lavergne Avenue in the Austin Neighborhood.

…2008 was the last time Chicago reached 500 homicides. (Source:WGN-Chicago)
