"Chicago Mayor Richard Daley says the city is getting ready to have its gun ban overturned. ..."
"Daley says he'll meet with police and aldermen in the next few weeks to plan for the 'worst case scenario:' having Chicago's decades-old ban on handguns and assault weapons declared unconstitutional."
"If the ordinance is overturned, Daley says he'd be concerned about what would happen when armed Chicagoans confront first responders."
"DALEY: And the police officer goes to the scene. Goes to the - goes to the door and sees a person with a gun. What decision does he have to make, in regards to his safety, and the safety in that home?" ... -------
Submitter's Note: I dunno Dick, maybe they should ask the thousands of officers in the hundreds of departments scattered across the dozens of states that allow armed self-defense how they avoid murdering the folks they are sworn to protect? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
