What’s Daley’s Real Motive For Reopening Gun Registration?

Chicago--Yes, Alderman Richard Mell wanted a new window to register his guns including the one he can carry because of the office he holds.

Daley normally fought this idea for over two decades. There can only be an ulterior motive for his change of heart. Chicago’s politicians know they will lose their gun ban because of that D.C. Vs. Heller to be decided any time by the U.S. Supreme Court. Daley also knows that if gun ownership is a right he can’t charge to register guns. I fully expect Daley to jack up the fees to fill the city’s coffers at the expense of lawful gun owners.

If Chicago invites gun registration they will be able to misuse the gun owner data for future plans to harass gun owners.

Aldermen don't have a right to carry a weapon by virtue of their office. That's a myth they've been spreading for a while. If they go through firearms training, they can become "conservators of the peace", which allows them to make arrests, but doesn't qualify them to carry weapons.

Daley's "change of heart" on gun registration is just a smokescreen. He's trying to provide cover for Mell by spinning it to look like the city is opening a window to allow people to re-register, but the window is already closed - if you didn't apply between 5/07 and 4/08, you don't get to try again. The only person who benefits from this is Mell.

Daley looks like he has a well repaired double cleft pallet.

Daley is such a boob !
First off, the gun bans only affect the law abiding. The criminal world will always have an assortment of weapons. So, the more gun laws you create, nothing will change other than loosing more of your Constitutional rights.
Secondly, does Ritchie remember Meigs field? Tearing up runways in the middle of the night...like taking the law in to his own hands...like the wild west. Whatta goof !
I'm not for carry to conceal, but believe I should choose to protect my family/home/business with any means nesscessary. The criminals follow NO rules, yet we are expected to jump through hoops and legal bills just to defend yourself.
Daley uses excuses of children and guns at home yet fails to mention that the greater majority of these situations happen with either people already involved in criminal activity or morons who have no right having children much less a weapon.
Why do intelligent law abiding citizens have to constantly be affected by the morons of the world...and the polital goofs with their body gaurds 24/7 continue to preach to us about not needing protection for your family.

One of the"boobs" is Anonymous: "I'm not for carry to conceal." whatever that means. The Supreme Court affirmed that the word: "bear" means: "carry". That affirms the right of U.S. citizens to bear or "carry" weapons for self defense. By the way, it really doesn't matter what anyone including Anonymous is "for" or against. The Court reaffirmed the Constitutional right for individual U. S. citizens to keep and bear arms.

Chicago Cops Slammed with Sudden Ban on the Sig/Sauer P320—And the Officers Will Pay thePrice

In a move that’s rocking the rank and file, the Chicago Police Department has abruptly banned the use of the once-trusted Sig/Sauer P320 pistol as an authorized duty weapon. The order came down swiftly, leaving thousands of officers scrambling. The official reason? Alarming reports that the weapon can fire without the trigger being pulled. For years now the gun-maker has brushed off horror stories about negligent discharges, usually blaming human error. After all, it’s easier to blame the gun than admit to a deadly mistake. Just think back to Alec Baldwin’s tragic shooting on a New Mexico movie set—he insisted he never pulled the trigger, yet a woman lost her life. But experts were quick to point out that the revolver in question simply doesn’t fire on its own. This, however, isn’t Hollywood. The Sig Sauer P320 has a documented pattern of discharges—many occurring while holstered. Lawsuits are piling up, and the manufacturer continues to deny fault, but the incidents are too numerou...

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
