I refuse to leave any more of my money in Chicago than I absolutely have to because of Meigs Field.
However, Hizzoner has a point: the decision, as written, did not address whether the Second Amendment is incorporated to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment in the same way as, say, the First and Fourth Amendments are. They hinted strongly at it, but didn't come right out and sasy it. Thus, it'll take another lawsuit to make that point. The good news is that the NRA is filing such a lawsuit even as I type this (if they haven't already).
