Knee jerk bill signed by governor fatso mainly due to the Highland Park shooting. When shootings like that happen in wealthy liberal towns then all of a sudden we have a “gun” violence problem in this state. Time to move to Wisconsin. I’ve had enough of the land of stinkin.

Pritzker is in for a rude awakening when he finds out about McDonald. The 2nd Amendment doesn't say it applies only to firearms up to a certain caliber, size, appearance nor magazine size, it says "shall not be infringed" and SCOTUS has underlined this in many different rulings.

Sounds like a mighty big infringement

BTW I think ClassicFirearms.com is headquartered out of there. I have traded with them several times and watch their videos. I wonder how this affects them? Being 4.5 hours south of metro ATL, I sympathize with rural baws whose home state has been hijacked by urbanites.

Illinois is literally about to become the real life purge but don't worry governor fat-arse and mayor Lori Penisfoot will be protected in their ivory towers with 20 armed guards.

certainly unconstitutional but just out of curiosity: how (if at all) do they define "assault rifles" and "high capacity"?

Blue states sure are tripping over themselves to pass draconian restrictions since SCOTUS ruling.

Gun control is unconstitutional.

What is the legal definition of an assault rifle vs a semi auto rifle? I assume the color is the first part

As expected , most sheriff came out saying they won’t enforce unconstitutional laws, just like most states attorney didn’t follow the safeT act.

Most of our counties in IL are gun sanctuary counties. We’ve really stopped listening to Springfield and Chicago.

I wonder if my cousin is going to finally move out of Illinois for this. For a yankee he loves his guns but I can imagine this being the last straw. He's no fan of Pritzker.

They should also ban unicorns and leprechauns since all 3 are things that don’t exist.
