  • Otis McDonald is a true American.

  • the highest crime infested cities have the toughest anti gun laws

  • stopped watching, cheap ad BS

  • chicago consistently ranks high in murder rates every year .. so the hand gun ban is not working! .. give the honest citizens a chance to defend themselves from these scumbags!

  • Are they really this stupid!?!?!? you know I respect what the woman at the beginning is doing, but there WAS a ban in place...and it obviously wasnt working!!!! let these criminals think about it before they pull their gun!!! Let people defend themselves against these assholes...And Mayor (in the loosest sense of the word) Daley.....why dont you try harsher punishments on the criminal, instead of punishing citizens by making them succeptable to violence!?!?!

  • When a city has a ban on guns, and yet still has a hurrendous level of gun violence, then that ban had completely failed at its purpose. So if crime is high, and the gun ban has failed, then dont take away the lawful citizen's ability to keep themselves and families from becoming the next victims.

  • A city with a handgun ban has terrible crimes and some of them the person used a gun.

    So if handguns are illegal in Chicago, how do people get shot with guns.

    If honest citizens were armed, then violent offenders might think twice before trying something.

  • The Second Amendment says; the right of the people to keep and bears arms, shall not be infringed; the right of the PEOPLE, in contrast with the MILITIA. It doesn't say; the right of the Militia to keep and bears arms, shall not be infringed.

  • @n310ea - With that, it should be noted that, throughout the contest of the constitution, the term "The People" is always in reference to the individual citizens. It does not change its meaning for one Amendment. The definition of "The People," is the same in the Second Amendment, as it is in the First Amendment. How this goes overlooked is beyone me.

  • So Chicago Officials are saying, "If you want to live in our city, you'll play by our rules" No handguns! (at least for law abiding citizens). Oh and by the way, you will live in our city at your own risk!, we cannot guarantee your safety or the safety of your family. After all how can be be responsible for the way society has evolved into such a violent one?.

  • The gun ban doesnt stop people from getting guns it forces them to upgrade to more powerful weapon.

    People in Chicago with guns cards Can buy shotguns and riffles I think.

  • Gun bans are not going to stop the gun violence but make it easy for the criminals to cause more violence. Chicago already has one of the strictest gun laws and look how that worked. The city council should be impeached or jailed for breaking the law. Keep in mind once you let one amendment go away the others will follow.

  • @jimd1968 very true!

  • Comment removed

  • The constitution applies to cities and states. Only a radical activist judge could think otherwise. The constitution is clearly the baseline from which localitites can operate.

    If a state can ignore the 2nd amendment, what's to stop them from choosing not to enforce the first? Or any other amendment?

    Besides, all a handgun ban does is keep the good people who obey laws from protecting themselves. Chicago can expect gun toting criminals to flock to their area.

  • "The constitution applies to cities and states."

    IT sure does. It also applies to "private" businesses too, which is the most over looked aspect of THE LAW.

    I don't know of one 'honest' person that can tell me the second part of the second amendment does not apply to all adults Citizens of this nation.

    ",,, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.".

    No where no how shall 'they' have the authority to say remove your arms, but they do. Some oath keepers.

  • How is the constitution's effect on businesses overlooked? Have you not seen the mountain of regulations put on employers, and who they hire these days? Let's not forget that a privately owned business is first and foremost, an individual Amercian Citizen's property.

  • To expand on that thought a bit. It is like these illegal Court orders to seal decisions they make. Why? To hide the corruption is why. It is illegal for a Court to force a person on the condition of 'winning' to remain silent on the matter, but they do. Some oath keepers.

  • As soon as Chicago repeals it's handgun laws then any kid or convict can walk into the store and buy one, right? No, you are still going to have to be 21 years, go through a mental and criminal screening, and wait 72 hours just like the rest of Illinois. This bill has nothing to do with acquiring a hand gun, it simply affords law abiding citizens the right to keep one in thier house for personal protection. EPIC FAIL on the bias, misleading reporting, Kate Bolduan.

  • the problem is most idiots dont know how to handle anything, right ot gun is a constitiution if it is needed if your in an area were the police are lacking in protection then you have the right to carry a gun non conceled. whats wrong with our judges is they want to destroy our consitituion and by bad lawyers with no morals. idiot dont know any thing and just every thing cut and dry typical criminals along with our idiot run newspapers in USA

  • This is a good case for the Supreme Court, it will lead to legal open carry for all US citizens again.

  • Latiker claims citizens are much safer when only the gangsters and drug dealers are armed and able to protect themselves. Latiker is well loved by the criminal population of Chicago. My understanding of Latiker is she believes that if you want to live in Chicago, you should get use to always being a victim.

  • Latiker is an up and coming politician who is using fear to gain a political base. The hand guns that kill people here are brought in from major arms dealers who supply the gangs. The handguns given to the police during gun drives are from people who got them from grandfathers and great great grands. The constitution says I can arm myself. Latiker will have you caught up in a home invasion without a gun while gangbangers with guns rape and kill everyone in the house

  • Granddad thwarted 3 burglaries with hand gun. No one died.

  • @chewbaca1989 If i were granddad...three people would have died! i bet all three have done t again since then!

  • @Harrisononthesack

    Today's generation is fast to kill, that was a while ago. I guess your right, I might do the same as you.

  • No Guns for Negroes

    part 1

    /watch?v=nckgyfGbdnU

  • Robber gonna think twice when granny is sporting a .357 magnum on the street or the customers at the gas station are brandishing their gun holsters before he sticks them up.

  • Great, so only the crooks can have them. Sounds like a GREAT idea...yea...

  • but your more stupid than them you shouldnt have a car or a computer

  • @AbuSalaam100 WHAT THE HECK. YALL GAVE ME SO MANY THUMBS DOWN, now my comment cant be seen??? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YALL??

  • Yeah salami, your comment was soo stupid, it won't even show up anymore.

  • how do you spell new world order?

  • taking the law-abiding citizens guns away DOESN'T stop criminals from robbing them, actually makes it easier.

  • @iTellYouNoLie

    The real problem is negroes with guns.
