The Chicago suburb of Evanston unanimously voted to amend the city’s 27-year-old handgun ban at a recent closed-door meeting. 

From NRAILA:

The day after the Supreme Court ruled that laws requiring handguns in homes be disassembled and outfitted with trigger locks are incompatible with the gun rights accorded under the Second Amendment, NRA filed lawsuits challenging local gun bans in Chicago and the suburban towns of Evanston, Morton Grove, and Oak Park.  Evanston city council members subsequently authorized a resolution that would rewrite their city’s ordinance to comply with the Supreme Court ruling and avoid the NRA lawsuit.

    I lived there for a year. Give it time, they’ll try to pull a DC on the citizens. There’s a lot of naive people who live there, and they’re pretty oblivious to how bad the outskirts of the suburb are when it comes to crime. The southernmost part of Evanston that meets up with Chicago is particularly bad.
