CHICAGO (AP) - Mayor Richard Daley says a rash of shootings that has left 10 people dead and more than 60 wounded since Friday bolsters his argument that city needs its handgun ban.

The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to issue an opinion by month's end on whether the city's long-standing ban is constitutional.

City officials say if the high court rules against the city, they would look for ways to change gun restrictions so that the measures aren't unconstitutional.

During an appearance Tuesday at a South Side high school, the mayor also said the city will spend nearly $25 million in federal economic stimulus money on preventative programs for youth in high schools where there's been a lot of violence. The programs will provide teacher training and mentors.

That handgun ban seems to be working out pretty well for ya, huh?

Take away a citizen's right to protect himself and his family, and this is what you get.  Bad guys don't obey laws.  Pretty simple concept, but Doofus Daley will never understand it.  What do you wanna bet he has armed security?

According to the American Rifleman, (current issue), Daley is afraid of losing the pending SCOTUS ruling on the Chicago gun ban..
McDonald v. Chicago.

Sooooooo,

He and other allies, including Mexican Mayors, want to have gun manufacturers tried in WORLD COURT, through IANSA, at the Hague!!!!

Was announced at the Global Cities Forum, sponsored by Daley. Brazil, Columbia, Turkey, Kenya, Cameroon, Ecuador, etc,...
Joyce Foundation was there, just as bad as Brady, but international.

When Daley was asked, "What legal authority do you have to sue gun makers?" Daley replied:

That's why we have 12,000,000 lawyers, you never know until you try.

American Rifleman, July 2010, pg. 60. Read it for yourself.

Your spot on Johnny B. "Dumb-Ass"., he is indeed.

"That's why we have 12,000,000 lawyers, you never know until you try."

That's not a bad idea for us to keep in mind as well.
Especially while we seem to be on a winning streak.

TAB, your statement is correct as far as it goes.  It fails to take into account, however, that the inability of the honest citizen to defend himself against the dregs of society is one of the primary reasons that it IS a cesspool.

I have lived south of this great politician for his entire carreer.  He constantly comes up with great lines such as this.

Another great line of his:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EJX8fIbzC4

Unfortunately our state has been hijacked by Chicago Dems and other jags in Springfield.  Two cities that handicap and entire state.

The honest citizens of Chicago elected (and keep reelecting) that twit. They have exactly what they wanted, and deserve.

As an escapee from Illinois, I believe it is all those people in the cemeteries that keep electing members of the Daley family and their ilk.   ::)
