Gun control has never been about crime control.

More guns less crime.

It has always been about people control.

Not really all that surprising for Chicago. When corrupt politicians have ruled for decades it’s no surprise that their laws target law-abiding business people and do absolutely nothing about the murderous thugs that infest their city.

The so-called "youth gangs" are actually Chicago's narcotics distribution system. Millions of dollars flow from the streets to lord high politicians' pockets. Nobody in Chicago is going to do anything about violent crime.

Gun Free Zone = Crime Scene.

Despite clear evidence that freedom and personal responsibility is the solution, control-oriented liberals (er, “progressives”) seek to retain and expand control.

It turns out that holders of concealed carry permits are a “demographic” that has one of the lowest rates of crime of any other demographic group, maybe even including law enforcement officers.

Consider the following:

>>
Between, October 1, 1987, and November 30, 2008, Florida issued permits to 1,439,446 people, many of whom have had their permits renewed multiple times. Only 166 had their permits revoked for any type of firearms related violation – about 0.01 percent. I was just looking up the new numbers. Updating those numbers to January 31, 2010, Florida has now issued permits to 1,704,624 people. The number who have had their permits revoked has risen to just 167. In 14 months, just one person with a Florida permit has lost his permit for a fire arms related violation. There are currently 692,621 valid permits. That is a revocation rate of 0.00014 percent.

I am glad that Illinois has concealed carry now, but we all should be honest.

Concealed carry is not going to stop the violence in Chicago. It is being carried out by a culture of those with poor impulse control and assassination protocols, the very anti-thesis of those who should be armed.

Concealed carry is great for those who might be victims of random violence, but those who are targeted and stuck in the never ending cycle of violence perpetuated by one culture in particular, it means nothing.

A restaurant does not have the means of enforcing any ban on guns. All it can do is call the police if a law has been broken, and this is not about breaking laws.
This action is illegal.

Stupidity.

Epic proportions.

Available now at your local dim-bulb-crat city council.

Remember why they are there.

What else could they do?

I would never eat in a gun-free zone. I would feel too much like a cow, munching on its grain, being prepped for the abattoir.

Bill of Attainder are illegal in the United States of America and is unconstitutional.

The Constitution of the United States, Article I, Section 9, paragraph 3 provides that: “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law will be passed.”
