Poor Chicago-So corrupt-So like Mexico in its gun laws

Drop back in time to December 3rd. On Page 19A of The Denver Post, the article reads, “Cops charged with protecting drug dealers.” No this is not Northern Mexico. This is Chi-Town, which maintains a handgun ban and severe restrictions on other civilian firearms’ ownership.
It seems “fifteen Illinois law enforcement officers” were busted by an FBI sting for taking money to protect drug dealers in “The Windy City,” AKA “that tumblin’ town.” Funny how draconian anti-gun laws seem to go hand in hand with violence and corruption in places like Chicago, D.C., Jamaica, and Mexico. (See my posts on Categories “Foreign Gun Laws,” and “Gun Law Failures” for more information.)
Wonder if President-Elect Obama, AKA “The Chosen One,” will send troops to take over police duties in his old stomping grounds. The Mexican Government has resorted to that drastic measure, because of the corruption of police agencies by the drug trade south of the border. (Prohibition-type laws just don’t seem to work, do they?)
I anticipate that Obama will decide that police corruption can best be fought across our country by imposing Chicago-style gun laws on the rest of us. Hopefully we will escape the corruption of Chicago-style politics and the violence inherent in a crime-ridden disarmed society, but I doubt it.
