Breaking News - Federal Judge rules Chicago ban on firearms sales and transfers unconstitutional. District Court Judge Edmund Chang ruled today that Chicago's outright ban on firearms sales and transfers within city limits violates the 2nd Amendment. Judge Chang says the 2nd Amendment provides "the right to acquire a firearm, although that acquisition right is far from absolute . . . But Chicago's ordinance goes too far in outright banning legal buyers and legal dealers from engaging in lawful acquisitions and lawful sales of firearms. . ." The actual effect of the ruling is minimal as the city and state will no doubt appeal, but this is another win for the Gun Rights movement in one of the worst strongholds of Gun Control in the country.
