So their killing each other with wiffle bats all these past 26 years ?

I remember walking down old Maxwell St when my Dad took us to Chicago. He had a 1911A1 under his coat an my Mom had a old Colt detective in her coat pocket.

Albeit one of the worst parts of that town back then we enjoyed the day that ended with a ball game an trip to the fields museum.

We liked it even though it was a tough town then.

I wouldn't go there today on a bet. In fact we don't visit places where we have to rely on others for our security.

It opens the way for the court to invalidate a 26-year-old ban on weapons that are often used in to stop murders and other crimes.

There. De-liberalized.

Chicago gun laws enacted in 1981 IIRC. Murder rate with a gun was 28%. 2007 gun murder rate was 60%. As Glenn beck said, “How’s that gun ban working out for you Chicago”.

A small edit...
