I have reached out to the offices of Emanuel, Chico, and Moseley-Braun to try and find out exactly what their views on gun ownership are in Chicago and if we could expect them to try and change the current ordinance. I have not heard anything back yet though.

Has anyone heard what the views are of those three mayoral candidates regarding gun ownership and the city ordinance?

Little Dick Daley will be gone soon as will be his contradiction of speech.

As someone mentioned, he feels the needt o arm himself and the alderman but citizen Joe isn't allowed to protect his family and property.

Can't this guy keep his trap closed? Nobody cares what he says anymore.

He is on his way out. I thought he is supposed to be taking care of his wife.

"Mayor Richard Daley today launched his final push in office for state and federal gun-control measures and vowed to continue those efforts "as a private citizen as well.""

"vowed to battle bills that would bar cities and villages from enacting gun-control measures and allow citizens to carry concealed weapons."

Maybe someone should ban Daley from using armed security guards.

There's a clear difference between security guards and the general public.

So the elite can defend/protect themselves, but regular people can't?

The Alderman and Mayor are allowed to own and carry handguns. Every Chicagoan should have that right.

I don't think that even they should. I don't believe in special treatment.
