I thought they had already lost this kind of thing in the Supreme Court!
These TYRANTS should be run out of the legislature by the voters of their state!
Torches and pitchforks come to mind, when I hear this!
If they can get away with this, we have no more Constitution or nation!
And the Illinois organizations that are trying to use reason in this discussion, are trying to reason against drooling beast tyrants!
"Listen, what's the most horrible experience you can imagine? To me - it's being left, unarmed, in a sealed cell with a drooling beast of prey or a maniac who's had some disease that's eaten his brain out. You'd have nothing then but your voice - your voice and your thought. You'd scream to that creature why it should not touch you, you'd have the most eloquent words, the unanswerable words, you'd become the vessel of the absolute truth. And you'd see living eyes watching you and you'd know that the thing can't hear you, that it can't be reached, not reached, not in any way, yet it's breathing and moving there before you with a purpose of its own. That's horror. Well, that's what's hanging over the world, prowling somewhere through mankind, that same thing, something closed, mindless, utterly wanton, but something with an aim and a cunning of its own." -- Steven Mallory, The Fountainhead, by Ayn Rand
The "drooling beast" she spoke about is out-of-control forced-collectivism, or what we know as Socialism. Pure mob rule democracy with no constitutional limitations!
If this thing passes and they actually do this, then Illinois should be quarantined and avoided by anyone who still believes in our Constitution and Bill of Rights, that they still and actually mean what they say! Anyone like that should leave the state and let it fall into ruin, like the other places that have been rotted by Socialism. For example, Chicago and Detroit!
The "militia" clause has already been settled by the Supreme Court, leaving only:
THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!
If these people seriously believe that the founders only intended that to mean weapons of that time - the late 1700's - then they should be stripped of their computers and internet access, being those things weren't part of freedom of speech and the press back in the late 1700's! Their "free speech" should be limited to standing on street corners, and their "freedom of the press" should be limited to Franklin-style mechanical printing presses!
But again, this doesn't have anything to do with reason.
We're up against the "drooling beast" here, people, and either it will win, or we will!

Comment by Teri Amborn on January 3, 2013 at 4:04pm This is what happens when you have too many people who watch too many movies and video games where the aggressor shoots innocent and guilty people...but the "weapon" is looked upon as being ONLY offensive.
It is the right of self-defense that we are fighting for...not the "right" of coming against others like our Government has done so with such reckless abandon of late!
Comment by Jane Galt on January 3, 2013 at 1:41pm Knowing some of the rural areas of this country, I imagine the feds might meet with heavy armed resistance in some places. But in Illinois the question becomes whether they'd get any resistance to the state police. ( Would "Gestapo" be the correct term for Illinois? )

Comment by Thomas Angle on January 3, 2013 at 11:29am We all need to do some more studying on the subject but it is supposed to protect us from a rouge Fed. government.
If they feds want you, the Sheriff can not stop them. That would take a large number of people willing to stand up. The 10th Amendment is nothing unless it is back up with the willing to invoke the 2nd Amendment.
Comment by Randy Michael Griffin on January 3, 2013 at 11:21am Everyone needs to get their sheriff to be on the side of the people. If your local sheriff is on your side, the BEAST can not touch you or he goes to jail. Yep, that's right. You did hear that right. If your sheriff of your county says that they can't touch you, then you are golden. But how many sheriffs are going to protect us from big brother Federal government? Now is the time to go to your sheriff and talk it over with him. In fact, I am going up today to see where our sheriff stands on this. This is not new. It has been done time after time and it works. If a sheriff tells a Fed. Agent to move on or go to jail, he better do just that because they really have no jurisdiction over any person if certain laws are in place. That is where the 10th Amendment comes into play. If we stand behind the 10th Amendment, the state has all the power. We all need to do some more studying on the subject but it is supposed to protect us from a rouge Fed. government. We have nothing left to lose. Let get together with our law enforcement and see what we can do..I am today....

Comment by Mark Bouquet on January 2, 2013 at 10:27pm They can only ban them if we give them to them. I will die on that day along with whoever tries to take away my rights to protect my family. Now more than ever as I just became a grandfather. A grandfather who lives in chronic pain that can't be helped outside of a miracle. That's a bad combination. A man who will not give up guns and a man who lives in chronic pain. I want to see my kids and granddaughter grow up but not as much as I want them to live free. Heed my warning. I will not be the only one shot and I'm a damn good shot!
