A native Chicagoan featured in a new NRA ad knows something about violence and corruption — and the intersection of the two.

The man, who was not identified, says both could be dealt with if the government simply chose to enforce existing law.

“I grew up on the south side of Chicago,” he begins in the ad released Tuesday. “You know it as one of the most dangerous cities in America. I know it as something less than America. A place where the law doesn’t matter.”

“It’s illegal for criminal gang members, drug dealers and felons to even touch a gun. Chicago’s politicians could clean the streets tomorrow just by enforcing that federal law.

“But they would rather attack the gun rights of good people than crack down on the violent criminals who terrorize them. So law-abiding south siders put their kids to bed to the sound of gun fire with no hope but to pray it doesn’t come closer,” he says.

“Chicago’s injustice is America’s problem. Either we fight this cancer of corruption or we pray it doesn’t come closer.”

The ad is the latest in a series of several that also included talk radio host Dana Loesch, Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and a would-be victim — if it wasn’t for her firearm.
