Baby steps in Chicago?

I didn't see it posted anywhere, but it looks like small progress is being made in Chicago. It's still all kinds of stupid but any movement is better than no movement.

Judge strikes down part of Chicago gun law as unconstitutional - Chicago Sun-Times

 

[Kirk Freeman]

We need Chicago to be bug-nuts anti-gun as they can be.

With a American death rate higher than that of Afghanistan you would think they would have seen the light by now. Instead they cling to their anti 2 agenda as they are slaughtered in the streets.

Just proof of the old saying, "When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns."

I don't. My girlfriend's parents live there. I don't want it to be a pain in the ass to deal with it every time I go to visit. Regardless of everything else, it's a really cool city.

Think of it this way, you know what a foil is? We need Chicago to be our foil. Or, as I prefer, anvil of victory.

We need Chicago to drag its feet and be completely unreasonable so when the next wave of litigation hits, Chicago looks unreasonalbe and more importantly unconstitutional.

Let California fill that role. I work in the city, and my Mother lives there. I would be overjoyed if the laws were such that people could carry guns.

1. There will be such laws once we get what we want in court.

There is no legislative fix in Illinois. Chicago is far too powerful in Springfield. We can block but not advance the ball there.

We need Chicago to stake out the most extremely anti-gun position that they can so they become the perfect foil in Second Amendment litigation.

2. Litigation is ongoing in California as well.

Ah, Collectivism. A very nice socialist type of thought.

That would be fine, if it weren't contrary to individual liberties.

You must have missed my purple, Tim.

You must have missed my purple, Tim.

You can't miss something that isn't there.

You apparently missed mine as well, Bob.

Tried to rep but I have to Obama it around first. Must be from Ban Hammer...

Interesting. The Judge makes perfect sense, but the "city" seems to not follow any logic. I like how Chicago is projecting that this person will be a criminal. It also seems to me that the definition between a proper person and a criminal is a very thin line in Chicago. Is this how it controls its people?
