Chicago Mob Linked Alderman Burke Demands Congress Act on Gun Control

The Chicago Reporter reports:
Before the city council approved a revised gun ordinance Wednesday, 14th Ward Ald. Ed Burke wondered aloud when Congress would finally have municipal government's back when it comes to gun reform.

Burke--who often gives lengthy, anecdotal speeches when commenting on legislation--pointed to last week's shooting massacre in Aurora, Colo. to illustrate that local gun laws can easily be skirted.

"We've got probably one of the toughest municipal gun laws in the nation, and to think that some unbalanced person can get on the Internet and order a gun that holds 100 rounds, and obtain that over the Internet with no regulation ... is preposterous," Burke said.
