Who Cares If It's Unconstitutional?

This was the question asked by a city council member. Seriously.

The Pittsburgh City Council passed an ordinance requiring reporting of a lost or stolen firearm within 24 hours. However, the state constitution bans local laws involving the "transfer, ownership, transportation or possession" of firearms. So, this goober who found enough stupid people to elect her to office says no problem, because "This is what's right to do, and if this means that we have to go out and have a court battle, then that's fine ... We have plenty of dead bodies coming up in our streets every single day, and that is unacceptable."

There you have it. The liberal mindset in full action. Unconstitutional? No problem, just pass the law anyway, because you obviously know better than anyone else, and the law be damned.
