Illinois governments defend gun ban because of ‘unprecedented societal concerns’ – Center Square

The briefs for the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in the expedited appeal from Cook County, the city of Chicago and the state of Illinois argue the banned weapons pose “extraordinary risks to law enforcement,” are “not commonly used for self-defense,” and that “weapons in common use for criminal purposes may be regulated.”

Good guys follow the law; bad guys don’t.

Simple fact overlooked by the geniuses in Springfield and the hysterical anti-gun idiots.

Pass all the laws you want and the only people who will follow them, will be the people who have followed them all along.

What a pathetic argument — the kind of thing that gets you laughed out of a law school seminar on constitutional law.
