Luczyk was one of a half dozen members of the group Mayors Against Illegal Guns who hosted the rally in the Arena District on Friday...Popular support for 'gun control' is a myth. That's why they push so hard when there's a tragedy and the media is paying attention to them.
About 50 guns-rights supporters were on hand, some with rifles over their shoulders and others with handguns in hip holsters.
I’ll train our officers that there is a concealed carry law, but when somebody turns with a firearm in their hand the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire and we’re going to have tragedies as a result of that. I’m telling you right up front.His justification? Well CCW holders don't have as much training as police and the CPD shoot innocents all the time.
Police officers make mistakes all the time,” McCarthy said. “We spend six months in the police academy, six months of field training and ongoing training on a regular basis and the fact is once in a while we’re going to shoot someone with a cellphone; we’re going to shoot somebody with a flashlight and none of that is okay.Isn't that just special? Goes right along w/ the NGAC and the NYPD, doesn't it? Basically he's saying he's going to train his officers to yell 'They're coming right for us' before they shoot anyone they think is carrying.
An active lawFor all the talk anti's give to 'keeping guns out of the hands of the mentally ill' and attacking military veterans suffering from PTSD, every single anti-gun politician in Chicago voted for this. Chicago based 'National Gun Victims Action Council' has so far refused to comment while at the same time claiming that the NRA 'supports guns in the hands of the mentally ill'.

In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.(pg 43)And what do 'extremists' do?
2. According to George and Wilcox, there are a number of specific traits or behaviors that tend to represent the extremist style. As a caution, we are all fallible human beings, and some of us may resort to these behaviors from time to time without bad intentions. With extremists, these lapses are not occasional; rather, they are habitual and a strongly established part of an extremist’s character.Hmmm. Sounds like every anti-gunner I've ever met but I digress. They go on to list other 'extremist' historical events. The Holocaust, Cambodia, OKC and 9/11. (pg 44).
