Jesse Arrested in Anti-Gun Protest
Two of the city's best-known activists wound up in police custody Saturday after a protest against gun violence outside a suburban gun store. Revs. Jesse Jackson and Michael Pfleger, a South Side priest, were arrested about 1:30 p.m. for trespassing outside Chuck's Gun Shop in south suburban Riverdale, authorities said.
Pfleger's a worse loudmouth and rabble-rouser than Jackson could ever be. Ought to be defrocked but it won't happen.
Though the arrests resulted in a minor charge for each man, it provided yet another platform from which to denounce the gun violence they say is plaguing the streets of Chicago.

As the two men were released from custody about 3 p.m., they walked triumphantly to the front of the Riverdale police station, where they were met by more than 50 cheering supporters, clapping and singing, "Victory Is Mine." "We really didn't come to get arrested, but to continue our process," Jackson said of his campaign against gun violence.

It was the third consecutive Saturday that Jackson and his supporters rallied in front of the gun shop at 14310 Indiana Ave. Gun sales are banned in Chicago, but Jackson said suburban stores offer city dwellers easy access to firearms.
D.C.'s gun ban has been overturned by an appeals judge.
