With the city’s ban on handguns certain to be overturned, Mayor Richard Daley on Thursday introduced what city officials say would be the strictest ordinance in the United States to regulate such weapons.

The measure, which draws from ordinances across the country, would ban gun shops in Chicago and prohibit gun owners from stepping outside their homes, even onto their porches or garages, with a handgun.

Daley announced his ordinance at a park on the city’s South Side three days after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Americans have a right to own a gun for self-defense anywhere they live. The City Council is expected to vote on it Friday.

“As long as I’m mayor, we will never give up or give in to gun violence that continues to threaten every part of our nation, including Chicago,” said the mayor, who was accompanied by activists, city officials, and parents whose teenage son was shot and killed on a city bus while shielding a friend.

Good ole Daley never quits.Disarm the public so only the gangs & criminals have guns,actually a brilliant idea.The gangs & criminals have no desire to shoot the mayor like the regular citizens. According to Homeland Security every American is a potential terrorist so disarming and banning them makes sense,right ?  Angry

Can someone please explain to me how banning law abiding citizen from exercising their 2nd amendment rights cuts down on crime?  I don't understand?

What we need to do is repeal almost all gun laws on the books, and watch crime rates plummet!

Wonder what Mayor Daley's true motivation for doing this is?

The motivation has to be money,is there anything else motivating to a crooked politician ?
 
I assume as long as the crime rate is high the more federal dollars they get to combat it. Police get state of the art equipment,money pours in to fight the crime and help the lowly citizen.
 
Plus by taking guns away from law abiding citizens it makes the citizen more dependant on the police force.
