In order to protect your rights should you be in possession of a banned handgun. Go at once with a witness to your local city hall (don’t bring your gun!) Ask and demand that they allow you to keep and register your gun or guns. Follow up with a registered and receipted letter demanding the same.
Should you be arrested after that for possession or failure to register you have proof that you tried to comply with registration laws but were refused.
No court will be able to convict anyone of mere possession of a handgun ever again. The practice that Chicago has of confiscation and destruction of your gun even if you’re found not guilty is also illegal.
Thanks to the kind folks at Galco Leather for the use of their Lady Liberty Image!
Watch Mayor Daley rant, rave and whine right here!

"ARTICLE I, SECTION 22. RIGHT TO ARMS
Subject only to the police power, the right of the
Individual citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be
infringed.
Daley may play the police power issue to the hilt.

Daley cannot.The Bill of Rights is just that,RIGHTS.daley cannot tell the Scum-Times or da Trib what to do.Daley will lose in court and piss millons of tax payer dollars away.
The Constitution of the US is THE LAW OF THE LAND.
So in this case, it would seem what the SC says the States must do.
I would tend to believe this ruling puts an end to gun registration and the Illinois FOID card. I believe it is illegal to charge or impose a fee when a law abiding citizen is partaking in his God given rights as an American. I guess King Daley could make registration voluntary but a law abiding citizen would not have to comply and register a legally owned firearm anymore. This means Illinois will no longer be able to charge a fee for the FOID card. The NRA is standing by to kick the little Mayor's ass and when all these other municipalities watch Chicago lose and the millions it will cost in litigation they will drop all of their unconstitutional gun laws. I am a proud life member of the NRA and a disabled CPD copper who is very proud to belong to the NRA and very proud of my brothers and sisters in the CPD but not proud of the city of Chicago or its corrupt politicians. To all the law abiding gun owners in Chicago your day has finally come, thank God and the NRA!!!!!!!!!
