Gov. J.B. Pritzker last week signed the measure that immediately banned the sale of assault weapons in Illinois and capped the purchase of magazines at 10 rounds for long guns and 15 for handguns. The Illinois State Rifle Association has filed a federal lawsuit challenging the state’s newly enacted assault weapons ban, saying it violates the Second Amendment.
Plaintiffs also include: St. Clair County resident Dane Harrel; C4 Gun Store, LLC; Marengo Guns, Inc.; Firearms Policy Coalition, Inc.; and the Second Amendment Foundation.
The lawsuit appears to be the first in federal court to challenge Illinois’ new weapons ban, but it is part of a burgeoning legal effort aimed at undoing the new law. Other lawsuits have been filed in state court. More are expected in federal court. It’s not clear which will gain the most traction.

 
The lawsuit was filed in the southern district of Illinois and assigned to Stephen McGlynn, a trump appointee. The confirmation vote for him was fairly close, a lot of dems voted no. That’s a indication he may be a decent judge.
 
It’s less than 15 and more than 10 but closer to 10 than 15, so my guess is politicians on both sides bent over but we know who bent over the most. Or, it was Common Cote Math that solve the problem, which wasn’t really a problem to begin with. Sort of like what Common Core did for math.
It's like that old advertisement for the Audi 5000, 5 cylinder automobile.

"Four vas too small. Six vas too bulky. Five vas just right."
 
based on what I see from the majority of Americans, Im proud to be in the minority
I hate to be the one to say it, but unless we take back the schools and universities, we're done. The dope-smoking, have sex in the mud at Woodstock baby boomers have taken over EVERYTHING, and have pushed forward all of this Marxist BS. The succeeding generations are even worse.
 
The Pritzker family is opening a gun range in Kenosha Wisconsin. This would be akin to Maura opening a range in Nashua

"Pritzker’s cousin James Nicholas Pritzker, who in 2013 announced he is a transsexual now known as Jennifer N. Pritzker, is behind the push to move the collection north."

It's the same guy!

And there's yet another crazy law .. straight from the mind of IL state rep Bob Morgan (Progressive Socialist Pig party). He's now proposing IL House Bill HB1305 - which is another run at liability insurance for gun owners. In one way, gotta give their side credit .. they never give up. Never mind that such liability insurance does not exist .. that never stopped a progressive with statism in their heart.

Richard Pearson in IL is a counterpart to Jim Wallace in MA .. Pearson runs IL State Rifle. Every week he puts out a Thursday Bulletin. Yesterday's edition is the source of this information.
 

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed the gun control law on Jan. 10​

The state of Illinois lost an appeal on Tuesday after a lower court judge issued a restraining order on a newly enacted ban on some semiautomatic rifles as well as high-capacity magazines.

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed the gun control law on Jan. 10, which bans the sale and distribution of assault weapons, high capacity magazines, and switches, which went into effect immediately after he approved it.

Effingham County Judge Joshua Morrison issued a temporary restraining order against the law on Jan. 24, preventing it from being enforced.

Morrison's ruling came in response to a lawsuit from four gun merchants and 850 individuals who argued that the law was enacted improperly and didn't have proper public input, adding that the law violated the state and U.S. Constitutions equal protection clause in providing exemptions for some groups of people based on their occupation or training. For example, people who are active or retired law enforcement are excluded from the ban.

I would urge some caution about commenting on these decisions. For openers, read the appellate court decision. It turns out that, in the lower court, the plaintiffs deferred any reliance on the Second Amendment, basing their TRO application on several Illinois state law procedural requirements for the enactment of legislation. The lower court bought these argument; the appellate court reversed on those issues. By my reading, the appellate court then nonetheless sustained most of the TRO based on its reading of the Second Amendment -- an approach (i.e., relying on an argument explicitly deferred below) that is likely to cause an even higher court to have troubles.

The appellate decision is Docket # 5-23-0035 and is apparently reported at 2023 IL App (5th) 230035. I found it at https://ilcourtsaudio.blob.core.win...LLC v. Pritzker, 2023 IL App (5th) 230035.pdf

And they are onlynTROs, they’re not on the merits. These are cases in their very very earlynstag3s.

The term "on the merits" is usually used to refer to a final decision with regard to the legal substance of the plaintiff's claim. In that sense, a TRO or PI is not "on the merits." However, one requirement for either is a "likelihood of success on the merits," to a decision on either does (or is supposed to) represent a preliminary assessment that the plaintiff's claim is not entirely out to lunch.
