You do not have an inalienable right to deny others of rights you don’t agree with, you ding dong.

Myself, I use the Second Amendment as a litmus test for politicians. If they are going to strip Second Amendment rights from law abiding citizens, then they’re not going to respect other rights. Some say it’s wrong to be a one issue voter, but I find there is a lot you can tell about a politician just on their stance on firearm ownership by law-abiding citizens.

Morton Grove Mayor Richard Krier said the village would comply with the law.

“We are a small suburban town,” he said of the north suburb, which banned the possession or sale of handguns 27 years ago. “We’ve never had any real handgun violence before then or since then.”

So they will “comply with the law”. Which law? Their handgun ban law or the supreme law of the land.

Why in Hell would Americans be thinking they wanted to elect an inexperienced, apparently racist (from the contents of his books) academic Marxist from this corrupt state to be POTUS? It sounds ABSOLUTELY BLEEPING NUTS to me. All I can think of to attribute such insanity to is that old saying, “those whom the gods would destroy they first make mad.”

Like Forrest Gump said: Stupid is as stupid does.

You really need to do some reading dude… You have not a clue!

For how Chicago’s gun ban is a racketeering enterprise.

You didn’t have a gun and got shot because the police weren’t there to protect you, they should pay. See how Mayor Daley likes that.

Also, his armed guards should be dismissed immediately, and he shouldn’t be allowed to have a gun, either.

Bad assumption about Atlanta Georgia. We have some of the most insane and restrictive conceal carry laws. Most of them date back to Jim Crow days. HOWEVER your statement will certainly be possible after July 1 since they put a little more sanity in our laws where we can carry on public transportation and even where alcohol is served as long as we are not partaking. Still some unreasonable restrictions about “public gatherings” but the right direction.

Jason this is a ruling about LEGAL firearms for law abiding citizens. I doubt if your neighbor runs out to get a handgun tomorrow your personal danger level is increased one iota. Probably it will go down because it creates a greater insecurity in the criminal mind. He actually has to worry again about his personal safety. That is assuming Jason you are not a thug and this ruling cramps your lifestyle and profession. One of the most enlightening insights I got was areas where crime is worst are overwhelming in favor of gun bans because they are afraid someone they love engaged in crime will get hurt.

If the same madman pulled a weapon on a MARTA train in Atlanta or on a Birmingham bus, he would likely be dead before he could reload. He might be dead before he got off a second shot.

Have you noticed that you never hear about madmen shooting up country & western bars? rodeos? Marine reunions? biker campsites? jukejoints? (real) blues clubs? farm expos? fishing tournaments?

Even madmen know they are safer walking the Pakistan-Afghanistan border wearing an “I Love NY” T-shirt than trying to shoot up such places.

I don’t know why I have to bring this up so often, but there is no “right” to deny rights. There’s no “right” to enslave, no “right” to ban speech or religion, etc.. And sure as hell, no criminal is going to obey a stupid gun ban, anymore than they obey laws against dealing drugs or committing robbery. Why is that so hard to understand?

Jason; For one thing, you have no standing to sue the NRA ILA, as they have the right to lobby Congress, file suits, etc.. You’d have to retry Heller (which wouldn’t last a nanosecond either) or push for a constitutional amendment to repeal the 2nd. Get yourself some meaningful education on these issues, then come back and talk to the big kids.
