Unlike most Chicagoans, Scott could have been a legal handgun owner. Because he had it before the ban was enacted, he was allowed to register and keep it. But the police department says he never did.

Scott's hypocrisy is indisputably contemptible, but I think he might have gone a bit overboard (no pun intended) in imposing the death penalty on himself.
