Hillary Clinton: Take dead aim against gun violence-HRC ROOM [View all]

Hillary Clinton

If you're a parent in Brownsville, Mott Haven or a handful of other New York neighborhoods, you live every day with the fear of gun violence harming your family. If you live in Manhattan, however, the city's as safe as it's ever been. As others have observed, life in New York can feel like a tale of two cities.

In 2012, the Daily News reported that just five of New York's 76 police precincts account for a quarter of all shootings. If you're reading this from one of the 71 other precincts, the epidemic of gun violence may feel like something from another world. In some zip codes, a full year can pass without a single murder being committed.

Sanders pro gun votes will lose him votes in Brooklyn and the rest of the city.
