Two Killed, Five Wounded In Shooting At Chicago Restaurant | Fox News

Thank gawd Chicago has a handgun ban in place. Without it some law abiding citizen carrying their own gun could have put a stop to the carnage. Fortunately, the killer got away before anyone could violate his rights.

How screwed up the anti-gun lobby is to propose disarming law abiding people who have to go out and about in public without an ability to defend themselves or their loved ones. 17 year old kid is dead because the anti's care more about the criminal than the kid. I wonder what their 'acceptable loss' number is. How many have to die at the hands of a criminal before they say enough?

I'm confused. The gunman had a gun but carrying a gun in Chicago is illegal. Since the carry ban is supremely effective and removes all gun crime, we can only surmise that the gunman was an LEO as they are the only ones allowed to be armed.

I can see it now "Congress moves to ban firearms anywhere food is present".

Silly you! Don't you realize that this exactly what the anti's want, just like Fast & furious was going to be used to enforce stronger gun laws on the border states. The liberals don't want you to be able to violate the criminals rights by defending yourself.

It will be "Congress bans guns anywhere criminals are present."

Already been done. You can't carry a gun into Capitol Hill.

how about if you vote "yes" to limiting handguns in any state...Your yes vote removes your right to carry, no matter where you are from or what your home state law is...I'll go one better, you will not be allowed protection in any way using firearms...ie: personal bodyguards, private security. Then you will know how "helpless" someone feels to not be able to protect ones self or family. This should include Judges also!

Glad I don't live in Chicago.

Let us not forget the plight of the murderer. He probably had a tough life growing up in a disadvantaged area because of his disadvantaged color and his disadvantaged education. (The education part is probably not that significant since he probably didn't bother to go to school anyway). Truth be told, this is a clear example of how the white man is keeping this poor, disadvantaged guy down. Oh, I almost forgot, it's also George Bush's fault.
