You know what else emits CO2? My fat ass and a rake.
Why not execution? I don't live in town just so I don't have to put up with city ordinances like this, but this is statewide! Who wants to live in Illinois with politicians like this? Not me.
She’ll have to rip it offa my cold dead back!
If it puts animal feces in the air, good. The least I can do is hope they make it back to the neighbors dogs who crap over here. Although I can’t recall ever leaf-blowing any turds.
Illegal aliens and children hit the hardest.
GOV. PRITZKER and the DEMOCRAT super majority want Illinoisans to hire illegals to do what gasoline leaf blowers can do in a fraction of the time.
Finally, common sense from Illinois.
Ban these blooming noisey machines.
Tar and feathers.
Just for
The noise. On a Sunday.
Yess
Ban them
No more Mexican bagpipes?
Glad they made it clear they were gas powered blowers being referred to.
Lot of girls in Chicago’s South Side would have been in a panic.
It’s not about the environment. It’s about destroying our stnadard of living so tehy can control us.
Greta Thornbug thanks them...
Are illegal aliens exempt from this racist law?
Senior citizens should rise up against this. Age discrimination. They don’t have the ability to rake leaves.

Mixed feelings. I HATE gooberment involvement but it’s EVERY SINGLE DAY in my ‘hood. Army of Mexicans blowing crap one way one day, blowing it back the next. The Tuesday a-hole has apparently removed the muffler on his screaming leaf blower, making it roughly louder than a fighter jet with after-burner full blast. Can’t even get a break on Sunday. What happened to rake, broom, dustpan? I dunno...gas powered garden tools make it impossible to have a nice, quiet neighborhood.
Maybe a better solution it so have everyone’s gardener a-hole all show up on the same day. Monday on our block, Tuesday the next block.
Even the across the street middle school gardeners show up at 6:15 AM and start making noise. The city ordinance says 7:00 is the earliest, but the school is apparently immune.
But gas- powered lawnmowers are ok? For now, anyway.
Weird.
The electric leaf blowers make just as much noise and will fling turds with the best of them.
They say a butterfly flapping its wings in Africa causes a hurricane. I often regret the horrific damage I cause on the other side of the globe when I leaf blow. But, I do it anyway. /uglyAmerican
