IL Sen. Taunts Gun Owner: Forget the Fine, Maybe We’ll Just Take Your Firearms
Illinois State Sen. Julie Morrison (D) taunted a concerned
gun owner during a town hall by telling him she might forgo
fining him and simply confiscate his firearms.
The exchange was caught on video by the Illinois State Rifle
Association and was tied to proposed fines for keeping
commonly owned semiautomatic firearms in one’s home.
The gun owner then asked, “If I get to keep it–if I pay a
fine and register it–then, how dangerous is it in the first
place and why do you need to ban it all?”
People in attendance applauded the gun owner’s point and
once applause died Morrison said, “Well, you just maybe
changed my mind. Maybe we won’t have a fine at all, maybe
it’ll just be a confiscation and we won’t have to worry
about paying the fine.”

Calling Wilson Blair - cleanup on aisle 10, please.
Just how are they going to ban 3d printed guns? Passing such a ban as law will increase rapidly the number of 3d guns.
That’s unbelievable. That illustrates the mentality of many politicians. They’re charged with representing the people’s voice. But when that voice counters their own, individual opinion, they abuse power to supersede the people’s intentions.
