The Illinois Supreme Court found the state's assault weapons ban constitutional. It was passed after the Highland Park shooting last year.

    i know there are cowards out there who need to hide in the country with their guns, it’s okay son… there is still life in the city in spite of your fear… there’s even real people in the city who get along and everything, you should see it…

      I live in a very rural area but I’m in the fucking Bronx twice a week. I just don’t like it, not that I’m afraid of it. But what I’m trying to say is there are fundamental problems if there’s so many gangs creating such a high incidence of gun related fatalities. It’s not a problem of law abiding citizens or of not enough gun laws because criminals don’t obey laws in the first place. Gangs wouldn’t have it so easy if the populace didn’t turn a blind eye.

          The funny thing is nothing has anything to do with assault weapons in Illinois because they’re not used in crime.

              They tried that. They are functionally banned in Chicago and yet the gun crime rate is much higher than anywhere else.

              Also, shall not be infringed. More people need to understand what that means.

                thanks for all that propaganda… it’s useless… we know your gun is keeping you safe, and it’s basically a magic fucking weapon isnt’ it…

                people like you have a mental illness that has yet to be defined properly… firearm dependence…

                  Here’s the solution to Chicago. Start snitching. Defend yourself against criminals. Make the criminals afraid of mugging people or getting sold out by somebody in their group. They need to get back to the FAFO days.

                    back to the FAFO days.

                    never been any such days… it’s a delusion attached to your precious firearms… you have an illness…

                    of course, back in those FAFO days you’re talking about, we’d just call you a coward… yellow… because you sit around all day pissing your pants about what somebody needs to do about the gangs, and how many guns you need for it…
