Chicago gun rally

Here's a report, with photos. Via Instapundit.

Strangely, I can't find any coverage on the Chicago Tribune site...

authoritarianism knows, and respects, no religion.

They don't want to ban guns because they are Jewish. They want to ban them because they are big city liberals.

Take your city back, Chicagoans!
Way to go, keep up the good fight.

I combed both the Tribune and Sun-Times, the two major dailies in town. Not one word.
At one point, WBBM-AM, the large news radio station, reported that there were "dozens" at the rally, although later reports dropped the number.
I counted 500-600, although with the flux of the public plaza and the irregular shape of the plaza it was hard to do an accurate grid-type count. It was possible there were up to 800 attendees altogether, but I can't be sure.
Oddly, the ABC-TV outlet, WMAQ-7, probably had the most fair coverage.
Clearly, our fellow citizens in journo-land are on some uncertain ground here and show some discomfort.
Validna Rowe of the ISRA and IllinoisCarry.org and Suzanna Hupp of the Luby's massacre infamy were the primary speakers, and were especially good.
