Re: Rev. Jackson opposes plan to arm officers with combat rifles

"I can understand police feel outgunned and out armed by gangs, but that is why we need a ban on assault weapons," he said. "The killings coming from these weapons happen to be Northern Illinois University, Columbine and Virginia Tech."

Since there is an almost total gun ban in Chicago how can the police be outgunned? That would mean that the gangs are breaking the laws and that would be criminal. I think the next step for Chicago is to have people like Jackson go through a metal detector each morning to prove they have no weapons and then they can wear a button all day that says "I am unarmed!" Then we would all know who was a danger and who wasn't.
