BREAKING NEWS: Illinois Assault Weapons Ban STRUCK DOWN!!!


Stayed for 30 days.

Ok, Freedom is on the horizon.  How about that?

Wow great news but it’s not a done deal. 30 day stay + IL state appeal = hoping in 2025 we can buy the same items prior to the IL ban.

Yes, they have filed their appeal so it goes to appeals court and most likely the same judge (judge skidmark) and he will most likely reverse this court then it will have to go to Supremes.  Yes...we might be unburdened by what has been by the end of 25

State already appealed? How can they that quickly? The opinion was like 160 pages.
Im sure they will but curious to thinking of 30 stay. Betting it benefits us somehow over immediate injunction

It avoids that awkward time where people order guns or start transfers and get shut down in the middle of the transaction...maybe??

Paint me a skeptic. I’ve been told , yelled at, that FOID is UNCONSTITUTIONAL for 52 years. It ain’t going anywhere and either is the AWB. If you think SCOTUS is gonna rule for us  and Illinois is gonna open the floodgates to MSRs you just don’t understand the anti gun states mindset.

1. You just don't understand the state of the country with 2A do you.

2. Ah yes, like how we will never get CCW here.

3. No wonder you are despondent: you have already surrendered in mind with the retarded "MSR" term.

A notice of appeal is basically a 1 page document. It just starts the process.  The appellate court will issue a briefing schedule and hearing date down the road.

It’s a victory for sure, but will SCOTUS hear it on appeal after the Appeals court overrules McGlynn?  Which they will, ofc.

No. The Supreme Court is going to have a conference on the MD case on Dec 13th. If they decide to take it, then the decison from that case (probably summer of '25) will presumably be applicable to IL.

Thomas wants that one badly. Hell, if it were up to him, the NFA might be stricken in that decison. He needs three others to agree to take the case. Alito is in, and probably Gorsuch. Barrett has been a disappointment, and Roberts is a pussy who doesn't want to rock the boat. We need frat boy Kavanaugh to come out swinging for our side.

Technically it is just a stay pending appeal.  The 7th gets a bite at the apple first.

Yeah, summer of 2025  (or at least whenever the Supreme Court rules on the MD case) is going to likely be a game changer for our rights and the firearms industry, one way or another!

Assuming it is a win, I still think we are going to see a lot of states and localities continue to pass unconstitutional bans that still have to be struck down in drawn out court cases.

@Sven,
I agree. As long as anti 2A state legislatures can use state coffers to defend blatantly unconstitutional laws that deny the rights of their citizens, this trend will continue. Anti gun state legislators should be banned from using tax dollars for court cases and instead use the monies in their re-election campaign war chests.
