SO, IN OTHER WORDS, THEY MADE IMPOSSIBLE FOR LOW INCOME PEOPLE TO OWN A GUN...

[Lando Lincoln]

Astounding the power this man wields.

[Obadiah]

So the liberal anti-Constitution bullies are at it again.

I’m sure all those in the ‘hood will immediately comply following “the grace period”, right? Gun related crimes and murders will plummet in Chicago, right?

Or is this really only aimed at law abiding citizens in an attempt by the state to make criminals out of citizens?

[Tzimisce]

Your little court rulings don’t apply to us!

We’re big, rich, important members of the American left!

[PhilCollins]

I don’t think any gang members will obey the new limits. They’ll buy as many guns as they want, without taking safety classes.

Daley can run for re-election, in Feb. 2011. Who will oppose him? I emailed John Cox, Rosanna Pulido, and Dan Proft, and I asked them to run. Rosanna said that she won’t run, but I didn’t get a response from John or Dan.

When southern states tried to do a constitutional end-around in the 50’s 60’s it brought in the National Guard.

"City Council passes Daley gun restrictions 45-0"

100% approval with minutes of deliberation? Kim Jong Il doesn't have that level of control over North Korea's parliament.

[LoneRangerMassachusetts]

The rational purpose of gun control is to be able to rule without the consent of the governed

The rational response of the governed is revolution.

[SandRat]

This idiocy will be fought in court I'm sure.

Cue Jeff Dunhan's puppet Walter.

Dumb*** Daley!

Sounds like it’s time for another lawsuit.

[William of Barsoom]

45 to nothing?

They have a 45-member CITY COUNCIL!!??

I have to ask... ...are these paid jobs?

Would not his be the largest (and most inefficient) City Council on the planet?

[dockkiller]

The only reason someone wants to take your gun away from you is because he wants to do things to you that he could not do if you were armed.

[dirtboy]

The Chicago City Council today passed Mayor Richard Daley's new set of gun restrictions 45-0.

Expect the MSM to show the same outrage to Daley defying the Supreme Court as they have shown to state AG's filing suit to block Obamacare.

Not.

[Joe Brower]

45 to 0, eh? I imagine it's pretty hard to vote against the mob when Guido & Luigi are waiting outside to break the legs of anyone with the temerity to go against the "will of the people"...

[Grunthor]

Wow.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

Why the hell does a city council have 45 members? No wonder Chicago is unmanageable. Why not 450 members? Then they can govern as poorly as the US government.
