Lost gun store fight costs Chicago taxpayers nearly $1 million | Early & Often

Gun-rights advocates have delivered a one-two punch to the city of Chicago.

The first blow came on Jan. 6 when a federal judge ruled the city’s longtime ban on gun stores was unconstitutional.

On Thursday, the second blow landed when the judge approved $940,000 in legal fees that the city must pay to the attorneys who challenged the ban. Charles J. Cooper, one of those plaintiffs’ attorneys, charged $975 an hour for his work.

its time the citizens of Chicago realize what the agendas of their elected officials can cost them too

lol, the residents of Shitcago have long realized that the Daily political machine would cost them many times over that amount, but they have given up in despair of ever defeating that crew of criminals.

The machines gun ban (political payoff for the political support of gun grabbing fascists) is only one of many such deals that fuck over the city of Shitcago every day of every year.

They have just given up hope of ever beating the bastards that run that city.
