Here it the link to a YouTube video showing Chairman Nekritz pulling the "Assault Weapon" ban which would have banned about 60 percent of the guns owned in Illinois:

At the end of the video, you can here someone yell "Death to Tyrants", or something pretty close!

Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when they deserve it. Mark Twain.

Like Rimshot Joe Biden would say, “This is a big -——— deal”.

HELL yes !

Having to admit to being born in IL isn't quite as much of an embarrassment tonight (though surely still embarrassing enough).

Good news in Illinois. Glad to see an act of common sense, and thanks for the post.

On a less sincere note, what we’ve been told about Obama issuing the “EO” to outlaw the Second Amendment, TEOTWAWKI arriving and Boehner’s mind being controlled by an Obama drone aren’t true? ;-) [Aw, never mind. WOD musta finally got the most interesting commenters.]

Political speech is so sophisticated these days, you know. Just can’t keep up with it! ;-D

If they can get this done in Illinois we're in good shape.

Glad I gave money to the NRA (which I couldn’t really afford)

A big “thank you” to all my Illinois and out-of-state friends who sent emails, made phone calls, and sent faxes. I spent a lot of hours on my PC this weekend.

The system works. No need to resort to violence to get what you want.

The system is not working in Illinois as long as these mad dog killers on the left (peeps who create and demand gun free zones are actually demanding free fire zones, so they are responsible for the deaths) are allowed to run loose in the legislature.

Lol! I guess I'm not the only one sick of all the breathless "sky is falling" posts about somebodies uncles best friends former roommate hearing that Obama plans to issue an Executive Order next Tuesday 1:13PM and then using Madame Cleo and the Psychic friends networks, he's going to find and send the military to pick up every gun in the country before 2:30pm.
