Armed and Safe has the latest, including a copy of the ordinance.
If writing the law to suit yourself isn't naked tyranny, I don't know what is.
I hesitate to say any more, because I just submitted a column on this to GUNS Magazine, so go read what 45superman has to say--he covers it well and then some, including alerting us to another "Only Ones" exemption proposal.
If I were an Illinois gun owner, I would be pressing organizations claiming to represent me to file a freedom of information demand for copies of all correspondence from Chicago gun owners who told the city they were in the same predicament as Richard Mell. Conveniently I notice he mentioned he was called, so perhaps phone logs could be included at as well. You could do it in a way to protect their identities, and use it to validate that the city has been "inundated" and the new law will benefit "thousands."
Hell, I'd think a quick audit of police records for how many have not renewed during the designated time period ought to give a good quick 'n dirty snapshot, once you factor in people who moved or died--but then again, maybe not, because who in their right mind would play along with this evil game?
