Mayor Daley is seething over a West Side legislator’s suggestion that children be educated about gun safety and gun use.
State Rep. Annazette Collins (D-Chicago) said she believes that education is the key to gun safety, and said a hands-on approach is the key to taking away the mystery and allure of guns.
“Downstate they teach you that guns are meant for hunting, for protection,” she said. “Here in the urban cities, all they see are guns on TV and they gun down people.”
Opponents filled a town hall meeting Monday night in Garfield Park, and Mayor Daley is adding his voice to the outrage.
“It’s the silliest position I’ve ever heard taken,” Daley said.
Daley said putting guns in the hands of more children is the last thing the city of Chicago needs.
Mayor Daley thinks it's just fine for Chicago police to have a monopoly on handgun ownership even if they are into
torture.Mayor Daley doesn't seem too bothered by the
Chief of Detectives being the Chicago Mob's long term plant on the police force.Is it "silly" to think Chicago's
handgun ban was pushed by the Chicago Mob? Or that Mayor Daley
associates with influential domestic terrorists? Mayor Daley doesn't want children to learn about guns but wants children to think a
high ranking made member of the Chicago Mob was
a committed public servant, a cherished friend of many and good neighbor to all
That's Chicago for you.
