From the Chicago Tribune:
I'm guessing that the Canadian style gun registry will work about as well as it did in Canada....
Daley annoyed that gun registry not up and running
December 08, 2010
Mayor Richard Daley expressed frustration today that the Chicago Police Department has not set up a database to let police officers and firefighters know how many firearms are registered in each home in the city.
The registry was a key piece of Daley's new gun control platform this summer after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the city's handgun ban in June. The mayor said it would help protect first responders by letting them know what kind of situation they might encounter when they went to calls in Chicago residences.
"It is annoying" that the registry isn't yet in place, Daley said when asked about the topic after the City Council meeting.
