Let's hope you are wrong. Let's hope that this shows us that if they cannot get it passed in a state like IL then it will much harder in the rest of the country.

This is actually a good sign ... if it won't pass in Illinois then it won't pass easily anywhere.
I hope this wasn't the NRA's only argument to a blatantly unconstitutional ban on semiautomatic firearms and standard-capacity magazines. The more I hear from the NRA, the worse I feel about sending them money.Quote:
The National Rifle Association lobbied against the measure, saying the ban would take as many as 50 percent of long guns off the market in Illinois. Gun manufacturers also said the proposal could force them to lay off workers.
I'm not sure where to put this, but it's awesome so it's going in this thread.

I hope Colorado is not as ramrod as Illinois idiots. Luckily Hickenlooper may be a Dem but he's also not stupid. Colorado is a Sportsmans state for God's sake, it's ALWAYS BEEN! This isn't some EastCoast or WestCoast (or Chicago) lala land. It's all about fishing, hunting, mountains, and wilderness. Our Congressmen better effing realize this. WE LIVE HERE.
