Gun rights advocates in Illinois filed a federal lawsuit against Mayor Daley and the City of Chicago Tuesday, claiming the city’s gun ordinance–put in place following the Supreme Court decision that is expected to overturn the Chicago handgun ban–violates their rights.
In the lawsuit, the Illinois Association of Firearms Retailers and four Chicago residents claim that they should have the right to carry a handgun outside of their homes, and that the new gun ordinance, passed by the City Council last week, violates their constitutional rights.
