I dunno where you're getting your "information"
(The RNC, perhaps? Or the Disinformation Wing of the NRA?) but you most assuredly can own guns in Chicago. All you need is a chit, called an Illinois Firearms Owners ID card, and your good to go. Now, there are restrictions: You can't own any fully automatic weapon, and certain easily modified semi-automatic weapons are banned (IIRC). but to say you can't own a gun in Chicago is pure bullshit; and you, aof all people, should know better!
Making a point with facts is a greater good that piling on more bullshit
