“Benna Solomon, deputy corporation counsel for the city, asserted that the Supreme Court decision only applies to the federal government. Washington D.C., she said, is part of the federal government, but Chicago is an independent home-rule unit of Illinois.”

I can see their argument beginning to form from this knothead. So I’m guessing that when Scalia stated that it applies to indivduals, he only meant federal government individuals? It’s not wonder liberals are idiots, they can’t grasp simple words...sheesh.

No it won't. However what it will do for Chicago Mayor Moron as well as other mayors in those locales who have such restrictive laws, it will allow them to use the courts (and taxpayers $$$) to delay the reversal of the prohibition of gun ownership.

I hope those who challenge the moonbats are allowed to proceed directly in Fed Court and can manage to get restraining orders prohibiting the mayors from abiding by SCOTUS decision.
