Like you and me . . . oh wait
Despite passage of the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004 allowing police and retired police officers to carry weapons across the country, Chicago has to be different:
Retired Chicago Police officers will be getting letters in the mail soon saying the city won’t certify them to carry guns — a move that angers the head of the local Fraternal Order of Police.
Supposedly, this if for liability reasons. However, given the city’s apparent fear of guns, I have my doubts.

I am not for special privileges, but I am for more people carrying guns. So i am conflicted on the law.
Though, shouldn’t the FOP (fraternal order of police) be able to sue and win.
