Miami Police Chief Calls for More Federal Gun Control in Wake of Mass Murders in His City

 

The chief of the Miami Police Department is blaming two high-profile drive-by shootings over the weekend on a supposed lack of federal gun control. The incidents left three people dead and at least 26 people wounded.

“It’s just an indication of the problem we have with the scourge of gun violence in this country that we need to do much more at a federal level to stop,” Art Acevedo, chief of the Miami Police Department, told CBS’ Face the Nation.

“We need to have universal background checks. We need to make burglarizing these licensed gun stores a federal crime with mandatory sentencing. And we need the federal government and both sides to address this issue,” he said. “Because without legislation, without certainty as it relates to holding these criminal accountable, we’re never going to get through this summer without much more death and destruction.”

      Really and I doubt the governor was enthralled with his view.
