GOVERNOR QUINN TEAMS UP WITH MAYOR RAHM EMANUEL
TO PROPOSE BILL TO TAX AND BAN YOUR GUNS
YOUR IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED |
|
As many of you know, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn today
utilized his amendatory veto authority to hijack a pro-gun bill and convert it
into a ban on so called assault weapons. Quinn claims that his bill would
"...make Illinois a safer place."
Of course, lawful Illinois firearm owners know better. We know that Quinn's true aim is to obliterate private firearm ownership in the state. Closer analysis of Quinn's bill reveals a host of opportunities for Quinn and his buddy Emanuel to make life miserable for the state's lawful firearm owners. Here is just a partial list of what this bill would do, if passed: 1. Ban the manufacture, possession or sale of nearly every semiautomatic rifle, pistol and shotgun you own. 2. Specifically ban Glock pistols since they share a common design with the Glock 18, a select fire handgun. 3. Require you to register every semiautomatic firearm and every magazine you own that exceeds 10 round capacity. The kicker is that, under Quinn's proposal, the State Police can charge you unlimited fees to register your guns. Thus if Quinn's bill passes, you could very well find yourself paying $100 or even $1,000 per firearm per year to comply with the law. Additionally, you could find yourself paying $50, $100 or even $500 per year for each "high capacity" magazine you own. Can't pay? Well then you would have to surrender your guns to the State Police for destruction. This is just a taste of what you could expect from Quinn's gun ban. Twists and turns in the bill would certainly open up the doors to taxation, regulation, and outright bans on every civilian owned firearm in the state. Oh, and one thing is for sure, you can forget about concealed carry if Quinn's gun ban passes. ... |
