Should Chicago be permitted to ban its residents from owning and keeping guns in their homes?

Unless the Illinois Constitution says otherwise, then yes. But I'm no Constitutional lawyer.

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall NOT be infringed

Now I know that is pretty complicated, what with it being written in plain old English and all, but it is the LAW of the land.

Anything contrary to it is illegal.

Unless the Illinois Constitution says otherwise, then yes.

In your opinion, should the Second Amendment apply to State and local governments?

I support more freedoms, such as the freedom of people to decide what kind of a society they are going to live in, all within Constitutional bounds.

CJ, those bounds on our RKBA's were set long ago by our 2nd amendment, which all of our states must honor as the 'law of the land'.

Ken H asked you:
"Let's say the people of Chicago, via the city council, decide they want their city free of guns. Should Chicago be permitted to ban its residents from owning and keeping guns in their homes?"

CJ, this answer contradicts your comment above that you - "support more freedoms, -- all within Constitutional bounds", -- seeing that the state of Illinois must also obey our 14th & 10th amendments prohibitions on its powers.

Really CJ, -- you don't need to be a lawyer to understand these concepts. - A little common sense will suffice.
