Strategery

So, the wealthy suburbs of Chicago keep repealing their gun bans. Chicago was all set to fight their gun ban. But, now, it looks like Daley may give up:

Mayor Daley today cracked the door open to abandoning the costly fight to uphold Chicago’s 1982 handgun freeze—if he can fashion a replacement ordinance that protects the safety of first-responders.

I am confused how the law-abiding having guns is a danger to first-responders. And:

Now that both suburbs have thrown in the towel—and newspaper editorials have urged Daley to do the same to save millions in legal costs on a fight he cannot win—the mayor appears to be having second thoughts.

Here’s one such editorial. Thirdpower notes they’ve given up on even appearing objective.

    The comments to that article are worth a pain of reading it… It would appear Mayor Daley is not beloved in Chicago..

    Somebody must like him, he keeps getting elected, and it can’t all be cemetery voters.

    “protects the safety of first-responders”

    Since the “first-responders” are the people who happen to be on the scene – crime victims, bystanders, etc. – allowing^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H not preventing them from carrying defensive weapons IS protecting their safety.

    The second-responders (cops) will just have to learn to deal with it.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
