All it means is that Chicago will, like NYC and other enclaves, pass laws laying out criteria for handgun permit ownership that will, in essence, limit ownership to the point of making this win meaningless. See, for example, how D.C has already enacted draconian regulations that have satisfied the courts as reasonable.

I agree. The ruling was stupid...and dangerous. Using Alito’s logic...cities could start up a poll tax again.

2nd amendment rights are inalienable. That means that those rights exist because we exist...not because some black robe judge says it exists...and not because a piece of paper called the Constitution codified it.

The ruling could have been explained in one page...instead it took over 200.
