Illinois, we are fighting for you! Just this week, another great ruling for gun owners in the state when a federal court ruled against the state and kept the restraining order against the new state law that bans the sale and distribution of assault weapons, “high capacity” magazines, and switches.
Judge Morrison said in his ruling that the plaintiffs are "being immediately and irreparably harmed each day in which their fundamental right to bear arms is being denied." The temporary restraining order can stay in place and also extends it statewide. Previously, the temporary restraining order only applied to the plaintiffs.
We continue to see wins in the courts over these cases surrounding the unconstitutional infringement of the Second Amendment. These states, like Illinois, are finding out that it is not so easy to take away the rights of the people and it is a costly lesson for them. California and New York are examples of losing millions of dollars over the years trying to go down the same path and they should learn from those failures before wasting everyone’s time and tax dollars on losing battles.
