    Default Illinois State Sen.: "...maybe it?ll just be a confiscation"

    IL Sen. Taunts Gun Owner: Forget the Fine, Maybe We?ll Just Take Your Firearms



    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...your-firearms/



    [QUOTE][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??/QUOTE]

    Damned good question!

    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.?
    Anyone still think this is about "good policy?" These people are drunk on power. I legitimately fear what they would do if they succeed in banning guns.

    From Mad World News article:

    The exchange between Sen. Morrison and a very concerned gun owner 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 concerned gun owner pointed to SB107 and said the purpose of it was ?to take away [his] semiautomatic firearms.?

    Morrison then interjected that the purpose was not to take them, but to prevent any future sales.
    Bold by me for emphasis. The article did not state exactly what she said, just that she "interjected".

    She interjected that she would/could change her mind and just confiscate the guns. Kind of a big deal.

    That's what these people think of themselves; they have absolute authority and our ability to negotiate our rights away is a privilege.

    I read that part Skip. I was referring to the line from the article where she interjected about it preventing future sales. I was kind of surprised there was no quote.

    There was a time when a politician would suffer immediate and severe consequences in certain places in this country for saying something like that.

    Ah, gotcha.

    The quote is so incendiary it's exclusion would have to be intentional. THAT IS THE STORY!

    She's as calm as a Hindu cow.

    Really makes one think about the folks they call extremists and fascists/Nazis. These are the most restrained Nazis I've ever seen.

    BUT, BUT. No One Wants to Take Away Your Guns.

    We just ask for common sense gun laws.

    Democrats really can't wait to put their boot on the neck of the people.

    This is why they need gun control because without it, the instant they get what they want the people rise up and kill them.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
