Would Daley just drive off the cliff?

Is Mayor Daley stupid? Blind? Is he going to run Chicago further in the ground with his irrational stand on a handgun ban?

What part of "people are getting killed around here" does Daley not understand?

Obviously, his handgun ban isn't working. So it's time to try something else. Daley has pretty much succeeded in stripping the right of handgun ownership from the law-abiding community. And the Kill Rate in Chicago? Well, Dick, it's not the law-abiding citizens who are killing your residents.

Try the gang-bangers, the druggies, the robbers. You know, the people who are prohibited from having guns in the first place.

Daley is trying to turn up the heat on guns, as the U.S. Supreme Court approaches the release of its decision on the Chicago handgun ban. What will the USSC decide?

Media, even the Illinois State Rifle Assn., has been quiet about much speculation.

An ISRA press release in May asked whether Daley ought to take a vacation. Here's an idea... how about a one-way ticket to Mexico or one of the African countries or maybe Afghanistan or Iraq? With no armed bodyguards. Think he might work his way back and sing a different tune?

Although I agree with you 100 percent, that the handgun ban is unconstitutional .... Daley would tell you that crime has dropped during the ban (he thinks they are related) so to be fair his ban is not "crazy."
