Chicago, IL—In light of the Supreme Court decision on the McDonald case that struck down this city’s 28 year-old gun ban, I was a guest on Big John Howell and Amy Jacobson’s drive time radio show.
It was a fast moving half-hour show. You can listen to it here.

I don’t fault him for that since it’s his show and it seems to work for him and the station that employs him. He is like many other show hosts covering the very active drive time. During other time slots, radio pines for callers.
You mentioned in your interview how the Supreme Court ruled that criminals don’t have to register their guns. Maybe that could be an effective affirmative defense against a charge under the present illegal ordinance, say you’re a criminal and therefore exempt. Let them prove otherwise, you won’t have to prove anything yourself because to do so would be compelling you to incriminate yourself. I wouldn’t want to be the first one to try it, but food for thought isn’t it.
