(This is the same reporter that Daley pointed a firearm at and threatened during a press conference by the way):

“I understand some Chicagoans want to be able to keep guns in the home, and I listened to them,” he said.

But Daley also moved away from gun control, emphasizing that the causes of violence are “many.”

Is that just the biggest disconnect from reality you've ever seen? The Suipreme Court forces you to stop violating the Bill of Rights and you take credit for listening to your constiutents concerns?

This would be like George Wallace saying "I understand some Alabamans would like to end segregation and I listened to them." It was so bizarre I just had to share.
