There were a lot of school shootings during the Obama administration. They tried to get gun control passed, but nothing happened. Now they are passing gun control at the local level and daring anyone to stop them.

Progressives tried an election, but President Trump was elected. Then they tried to get the electoral college to elect Hillary, but that didn't go anywhere. Then they tried a special council to get him impeached, but that isn't finding anything.

So right now they are down to plan D, win the mid terms and get Trump impeached. If they can't do that, I think they may try a civil war instead of waiting for 2020. Since BML and ANTIFA are lame brownshirts who can't start anything and no one is afraid of them, maybe they decided to get us to start first by banning guns and throwing us in jail.

I hope, in this case, the pen is mightier than the sword and the Deerfield Village Board of Trustees get their heads out of that dark place where the sun don’t shine.

The ordinance is written about "assault weapon(s)." Anybody know if the ordinance includes a definition of an assault weapon?

I'm wondering about their opinion of this 9mm FX-9 carbine? Sweet shooter.

Good statement. Deerfield, if for no other reason that facing bankruptcy, should consider the dollar cost of their action, of raised taxes, cut public works and services, to support their unconstitutional agenda. Maybe the good citizens might want to quickly recall their elected leadership and replace them before they destroy their community.

Another thread on this place talked about something in the ordinance, exempting government employees. The person who posted it, copied the pertinent section.

It talks about police and retired cops being exempt, but it clearly states, government employees. Didn’t clarify if that meant the cops or the streetsweeper. Just like the SAFE Act in NY, as originally written, would have forced the police to comply with the same rules. Which are bullsh*t, anyway.

Government clowns. Deerfield can solve this problem, if they wanted to. Start a recall petition and have some other people run for office. That city council will do, what that city council can get away with, obviously. If the city has a recall clause, start gathering signatures. When you have enough, recall them, one by one and start over. Simple. Someone just has to step up and get it started.

Merle Haggard's "Fighten Side of Me" has a verse that says;

"I read about some squirrley guy who claims he just don't believe in fighten, well I wonder just how long the rest of us can count on being free. They love our milk and honey but they preach about some other way of living, When they're running down our country, they're walking on the fighten side of me"

The Hag was a profit in his own right!

Those legislators in Deerfield, Illinois, now writing this stupid rule, simply MUST know that they MUST have their head on a swivel 24/7/365 now. Every place they go, every time they leave their house, the footstep they take just might be their last, in all the time left on this Earth that they have, in office or without. For they have made themselves an enemy of any and all those who have sworn a statement containing the words: “foreign or domestic”.

I wish them well.

BS! Who do they think would ever obey such a ridiculous, illegal, ordinance, anyway? They’re totally insane ! And could they find —and pay anyone crazy enough to dare even try to “enforce” it? What utter fools these pathetic little commies are! A million dollars for the first attempt, nothing for try number two - (because corpses don’t cash Cheques)...Or do the council people plan to try attempting that themsrlves ( a far better idea!)? This has to be some kinda joke —a very very very sick joke —

Every time I see someone attempting to control guns, I am reminded of this article by Kurt Schlicter.

“Never surrender your libertys to a foren envador or an aspiring demegog.”

“This Napsack I caryd
Through the War of the Revolution
To Achieve the American Independence
I transmit it to my oldest son to keep it and transmit
to his oldest son and so on to the latest posterity
And whilst one shred of it shall remain
Never surrender your libertys to a foren
Envador or an aspiring demegog.”

The first sentence of that letter would have gotten the whole thing thrown in the trash. I don’t believe any one of those members read the entire letter.

Very well written and thanks for posting...

I think a novel approach to this might be helpful not just here, but against other local governments that want to take away gun rights. Sue them for civil rights violations. Putting them on the same moral grounds as the KKK.

42 U.S.C. § 1983

“Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable.”

But wait, there’s more.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/42/1985

Conspiracy to interfere with civil rights

“...or for the purpose of preventing or hindering the constituted authorities of any State or Territory from giving or securing to all persons within such State or Territory the equal protection of the laws...”

The reason for this is conspiracy charges are much easier to win against. In this case, almost *everything* they said to each other prior to their unanimous vote could be deemed conspiratorial, especially if they indicated they knew it was against the law.

It could be if that city is as sissified as people have been claiming then these idiots know there is not one person in that city who would own one of these weapons but it sure makes them feel and look good by passing that ordinance....Wasn’t it a city in IL years ago passing an idiotic ordinance that prompted the city of Kennesaw, GA to REQUIRE a weapon in every home? YEP!

The open letter to Deerfield should have started with “Dear traitors”.

How do the village idiots propose to enforce this ban? Will their police officers do warrentless house to house searches? Will the local schools indoctrinate the children to turn in tbeir parents? Will neighborhood snitches be recruited to report their neighbors to tbe authorities? These are all tried and true police state tactics. The village idiots might be surprised if large numbers of their population will simply flee their police state just like people fled East Germany and Cuba

"But, there is no end to gun control and that is your plan. Today it is assault weapons and ten round magazines. Tomorrow it will be revolvers and shotguns. Next month it will be BB guns. Next year it will be knives."

England is at the knife banning stage now.
