These tyrants think they are King George III all over again. Submit to our will or else.
——lawful gun owners ——
That phrase begs the question. Who is a lawful gun owner?
How can the government differentiate between a gun owner and a gun possessor?
The governor should listen to his own advice. Stop signing unconstitutional legislation.
They get the feather after the local cops and the state police effectively stop enforcing such laws because they are being shot at too often. If the guard, and in the case of Illinois it would be the heavily black and woke ANG from Chicagoland that would be used down state, start using heavy weapons and mass armored up attacks then the future would be really grim as a virtual civil war would ensue down state and in Egypt. Remeber at least 500 men from Egypt served in the Confederate Army and there were UCV posts in Egypt.
Yeah. And didn't Prickster take an oath to defend the constitution when he took office?
It looks like a wise decision on the part of the sheriffs. The Supreme Court will stop the ban.
This is good so far as the sheriffs go, but what about the State Police and municipal police departments, which latter probably have jurisdiction over, what, 95% of the IL population?
***At least 80 Sheriffs wont comply.***
California sheriffs said the same thing back in 1989. The state still has the onerous gun law.
I believe you have hinted at a key vulnerability here. The County Sheriffs may refuse to enforce what they assess as an unconstitutional law. The local mayors and city councilmen cannot overrule them.
But "Police Chiefs are appointed, not elected". Those municipal and special district police organizations are going to do what the Mayor or City Councilmen tell them to do. If they don't, they will be replaced.
What are the directions the Mayors and Councilmen of various towns are going to give to their police departments? Have there been any statements of support for the Sheriffs?
Defend the constitution. That’s funny.
The sheriffs have the authority to arrest them all ... even the feds ...
This law is directed at White law abiding citizens, i.e.. exactly those who do not contribute the violent crime. These laws are an attempt to geld and control White citizens. Negroes have nothing to fear.
So this unConstitutional law which will be overturned, will do ANYTHING to stop the murders and crime.
In fact, Tammy Duckworth (D) said on "Flannery Fired Up" this morning that the law will likely do nothing to stop crime since the gang bangers get their weapons in IN and KY anyway.
So, she herself knows the "law" is worthless and still, she advocated for "National Firarm Onwer ID Cards" like IL has -- which are on the verge themselves of being declared unConstitutional.
With respect to Duckworth's service, she's not very smart.
Your question allows me to launch this complete tangent: I see this in news reports from much of the eastern part of the country, where states have these vast number of counties. Made sense I suppose with transportation in the old days and difficulty of getting to the county seat. But is so many additional governments really desirable now? Here in massive California we only have 58
They’ll have the same in Illinois, too.
Doesn’t mean the sheriffs are doing anything.
In Cook County, where would they even begin?
“California sheriffs said the same thing back in 1989. The state still has the onerous gun law.”
And in 2014, Connecticutt demanded all citizens to turn in their “assault” rifles. They didn’t and still own them.
Soon to be 81 when our Sheriff tells Governor Creosote to go stuff himself.
L
Then they will need to start doing that.
Power that is never used is not real.
