re: CHICAGO: Mayor determined to preserve city gun law despite judge’s ruling clang1 Jun 2012 #1

Please explain how that relates to the crime stats refered to? PavePusher Jun 2012 #2

Since you need a license called a FOID in illinois gejohnston Jun 2012 #8

How many guns have you bought in Illinois? DonP Jun 2012 #10

I'm not sure what your ultimate point is. PavePusher Jun 2012 #16

It seems the argument would be in favor of a national regulatory scheme Nuclear Unicorn Jun 2012 #37

Oooo, ooo, ooo... we could copy the alcohol prohibition, 'cause that worked so well too! PavePusher Jun 2012 #43

Thank god for another sane mayor. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #3

"Sane mayors" think it's ok to flout the law? mvccd1000 Jun 2012 #4

He's proposing to rewrite vague section of law to make it clear -- "No Friggin Guns Here." Hoyt Jun 2012 #12

"Support"? Other than online whining, what form does that support take? DonP Jun 2012 #14

Hug your buddies from the NRA Board of Directors next time you see them. Hoyt Jun 2012 #15

Another dodge from you? With a baseless accusation again? PavePusher Jun 2012 #17

So what are you saying -- you and your gun buddies are sending money to the Republicans? Hoyt Jun 2012 #20

Chicago Republicans! That's hysterical. DonP Jun 2012 #22

Yes there are Repuke candidates, and with the support of the gun crowd they may win someday. Hoyt Jun 2012 #23

But right now the pro-gun Dems are winning so everything is good. nt hack89 Jun 2012 #25

"So who is/are the "idiot(s)." Umm, you are, for knowing nothing about Illinois politics. DonP Jun 2012 #26

And, if you gun lovers have your way -- all that will change. Hoyt Jun 2012 #40

Again, what are you doing about it? DonP Jun 2012 #46

So, when you say you "support gun control" you actually mean - you do nothing? DonP Jun 2012 #18

NRA has plenty of power and is out to beat Obama. I am sure your devoted support is appreciated. Hoyt Jun 2012 #19

No they really don't. They're no threat this year. A gun control fan told us so. DonP Jun 2012 #21

They are dumping money and support into beating Obama -- yet you love and support them. Hoyt Jun 2012 #24

Only the money that people contribute to the lobbying side of the organization, and thanks to you .. DonP Jun 2012 #28

Wrong, the Executive Director and Board Members such as Teddie Nugent speak out agains Obama? Hoyt Jun 2012 #41

What a coincidence - I'm supporting a Dem that wants concealed carry in Illinois. DonP Jun 2012 #47

Your 'support' for Rahm is like your support of Georgia Democrats- lip service only. friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #48

Challenging laws is not flouting them. That's how they get changed. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #29

It WAS challenged, he lost - several times! DonP Jun 2012 #32

You hit the nail on the head! Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #39

"Where am I wotng?" Where to start? DonP Jun 2012 #44

OK, let's look at your flecks. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #51

This guy *also* thought Federal judges could be defied: friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #49

Oh, nice! Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #53

I think you understand little about Alabama and it's residents' desire to be desegregation-free friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #68

I think you are confusing me with someone else Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #69

Another sane mayor protected by a small army of people with handguns and automatic weapons. Remmah2 Jun 2012 #7

What does any of that have to do with public safety? Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #31

Mayors of Chicago and NYC are elitist 1%. Remmah2 Jun 2012 #61

Are you insinuating that all of the dreaded 1% are corrupt devils? Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #67

Finland is more gun fucking crazy than we are gejohnston Jun 2012 #72

Finland has about 16 times the number of gun deaths as the UK. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #73

hardly triple gejohnston Jun 2012 #76

Just more numbers and stats. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #79

false choice, gejohnston Jun 2012 #83

The point is they deny ordinary people the right to protect themselves. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #74

Ordinary people don't carry guns. Sorry to disappoint you. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #75

happens a lot gejohnston Jun 2012 #78

The danger still exists. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #80

Guns do offer protection when properly used. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #86

According to Hoyt those Texas DPS stats are lies. oneshooter Jun 2012 #93

Politicians deserve the same protection that every citizen does. Remmah2 Jun 2012 #84

You have never been to El Paso, have you? GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #9

I have been to EP many times. At least 30. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #33

El Paso is the 22nd largest city in the U.S. That makes it a major U.S. city. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #54

Sorry, number 22 hardly makes it major IMO Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #55

How about Dallas then? Murder rate DROPPED for the seventh straight year. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #58

How about LA and NYC? Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #59

you are actually right gejohnston Jun 2012 #60

Perhaps you'd like to $upport Rahm's "sane" solution? DonP Jun 2012 #11

I'm not anti-gun. I'm pro public safety. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #34

"bash our Dem politicians."! You better take a closer look at the guy you love so much. DonP Jun 2012 #36

Not all Dems, just union busting gejohnston Jun 2012 #38

I'm perfectly happy to bash Michael Bloomberg, as well. friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #50

I don't support the "stop and frisk" policy or the "muslim squad" Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #52

"Nothing to do with trying to keep guns off the streets of NYC."??? MicaelS Jun 2012 #56

I think you understand little about NYC and it's residents' desire to be gun free. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #57

I think you understand little about Kansas and it's residents' desire to be abortion free. friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #62

As far as it doesn't interfere with public safety or individual rights. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #64

nuclear reactors are not among the individual rights gejohnston Jun 2012 #65

Me too. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #71

Since even the dissenters in Heller admitted the 2A protects an individual right... friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #70

Look I don't support CC or the issuing of permits. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #82

May your good luck continue. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #88

Good luck to you too. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #89

I respect your right to that choice, but not the choice itself. N/T GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #92

Ditto! Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #94

Sane? Now THAT'S funny! Spoonman Jun 2012 #13

Like carrying a gun every day and expecting different results? Is that sanity. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #35

LMAO Spoonman Jun 2012 #42

Who's talking about bans? Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #45

Sometimes the results ARE different. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #77

You did right. Good for you. If all behaved as well, we wouldn't have any argument. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #81

If I had not been armed, we would have been at the burglar's mercy. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #87

I think if you had not been armed, you would have used other options. Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #90

Police response time is NOT instantaneous. GreenStormCloud Jun 2012 #91

Well, of course, I wasn't there Starboard Tack Jun 2012 #95

They're working great now...but more bans are needed. ileus Jun 2012 #6
