Is the law enforcement in Chicago responsible for enforcing federal law?
I don't know.

Why make laws that will not be enforced?

Luddite's question is one of jurisdiction. Only the Feds are
responsible for enforcing federal law, i.e., The FBI, BATF, Secret
Service, marshalls, etc.

If you pass enough laws eventually everyone will be a criminal in one
way or another, sort of like prohibition. Some people will be
prosecuted but the vast majority will not. Criminal who specialize in
breaking the law will profit from it.

From what I read, the cities make their own choices.

A federal gun crime is, after all, a crime.
