Government: Through down your firearms!

Citizens: Come and get them!!!

anyone starting a pool on how long before an officer gets shot for doing his duty?

If I were a true American and patriotic and a LEO, I'd refuse to follow that order. Too much other high crimes in the state of Ill. for the government to worry and push their gun control crap. 99% of gun owners never pose a problem to the law for their entire adult life times.

MEGA BARF BARF BS WITH SHEEPLE BEING SERVED UP TO THE ALTER FOR THE CANNIBALS IN GOVERNMENT TO CONSUME.

This is a constitutional showdown that Daley will lose. Unfortunately it will take several years to get through the courts. At the end, I hope that the city will be forced to make restitution with appropriate financial penalties added on.

I’m shocked.

The Chicago Police Department and the Illinois State Police have teamed up to make good on Mayor Daley's pledge that, if it were up to him, nobody would have a gun there would be no silly Constitution.

There, fixed it.

Just join al-Qaeda and the Mayor will let you keep your gun. He’s a Democrat after all. The ACLU will take up your case if you are al-Qaeda. The media will give you all the support they can if you are al-Qaeda.

What a surprise: registration is used for confiscation.

Do you know why the British went to Concord in the first place? They went to disarm the populace.

I agree, come and get them. I recall the retort to this was, how can you stand up to a government with military weapons with your puny handguns. I retorted, why would you want a government that would use them on you.

[stevio]

This is totally outrageous!

“anyone starting a pool on how long before an officer gets shot for doing his duty?”

If he gets shot violating the Constitution then I have no sympathy for him.

[edcoil]

Could al-Qaeda qualify as a militia in our constitution? They should sue then they would be the only ones with guns.

[wastedyears]

Question is, how do I arm up without my father knowing?

Even though he’ll probably read this, I don’t care. I have the right to protect myself and my family. One night it may have to be by force.

[tumblindice]

Mayor Daley, meet Mayor Giuliana.
You two have a lot in common.

[LIConFem]

Let’s hope it never comes to that, but I have to say that any LEO who would be part of this task force, is most definitely NOT doing his duty.

[wastedyears]

Maybe they should marry.

[Mariner]

Every cop I ever met would take guns, especially HANDGUNS, out of the hands of the average citizen.

While they may say "oh, I'd let YOU have one", they'd really rather nobody had guns but them.

After all, who knows best about how society should be structured...and who should hold power in a society...than the police?

“Too much other high crimes in the state of Ill. for the government to worry and push their gun control crap. “

They’re not about preventing crime, but controlling people.

[sbMKE]

Interesting that they’d rather crack down on loaded weapons instead of loaded illegal aliens.

Makes sense, when I use liberal logic, that they’d focus on the group that isn’t on the streets killing Americans.
