From the article:

The new measure would apply to all gun owners, not just those who hold a Chicago firearms permit, as is now the case. The "vast majority" of firearms recovered by police are owned by people who don't have a firearms permit, Chicago police Cmdr. Christopher Kennedy of the Gang Investigations Division told aldermen.

How do they propose to square that with the Fifth Amendment's protection against self-incrimination (since possessing a gun in Chicago without a permit is a "crime")?

Oh--silly me. I forgot this is Chi-Town.
