The City of Chicago bans handguns. The Village of Morton Grove in Illinois bans handguns. As a matter of fact, there was a federal case regarding that: Quilici v Morton Grove where the 7th Circuit Court ruled,
"Because the second amendment is not applicable to Morton Grove and possession of handguns by individuals is not part of the right to keep and bear arms, Ordinance No. 81-11 does not violate the second amendment."
Comments?
Maybe I should have said “IN THEORY, the government is not allowed to ban gun ownership.”
Illinois, New York, DC need to be slapped down for what I consider illegal taking of our Constitutional rights.
The Constitution has little bearing on our current government. It is used when it is convenient, ignored when it is convenient.
