skinnyb82 Posted April 6, 2018 at 01:17 PM Share Posted April 6, 2018 at 01:17 PM When did they lose the appeal?Oops, no, no loss on appeal but I fully expect that to happen. What I was thinking was an identical suit filed in the Eastern District of California, Judge Shubb found that the mag doesn't infringe on the Second Amendment right and doesn't violate the Takings Clause. Wiese v. Becerra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SycamoreRuger Posted April 6, 2018 at 03:31 PM Share Posted April 6, 2018 at 03:31 PM Is the ISRA lawsuit filed today a separate suit?Think so. It is the ISRA and SAF.

shootermcgavin Posted April 6, 2018 at 04:47 PM Share Posted April 6, 2018 at 04:47 PM Check this out on when they passed the first ordinance. Some interesting quotes from the Mayor ""We are not saying we are discussing this tonight and next week we're going to ban firearms. We have no intention of doing that." So wait, if your intent was not to ban firearms then, then how is this new ordinance an amendment. Its obviously a new law. It would be like amending the ordinance around overnight parking to include banning firearms. They are that much alike. Oh another quote, "We're not interested in getting involved in lawsuits," Rosenthal said in an interview." This was in 2013. Obviously she is now.

InterestedBystander Posted April 7, 2018 at 12:09 AM Author Share Posted April 7, 2018 at 12:09 AM The village has responded with 2 updates https://www.deerfield.il.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=216 Village Board Passes Assault Weapons BanUpdated April 6 At the Village Board meeting on February 20, 2018, Mayor Rosenthal directed that Staff and the Village Attorney present a report concerning the implementation of a ban on assault weapons. The proposed ordinance would ban the possession, sale and manufacture of assault weapons and large capacity magazines in the Village and is based on the City of Highland Park ordinance that withstood a legal challenge. The ordinance passed at the Village Board meeting on April 2 and will take effect June 13. The ordinance provides for an effective date 60 days after the ordinance goes into effect and does not otherwise regulate or prohibit rifles, shot guns, pistols or ammunition. View the ordinance here. The Village of Deerfield has received the suit filed April 5 concerning the Ordinance adopted April 2 banning assault weapons and large capacity magazines. The Village believes it has acted within its statutory authority and will be evaluating the suit in order to respond appropriately. No additional statements will be made on this pending litigation at this time. View the Village's statement on the Easterday Assault Weapons Ban Lawsuit here. ================= https://www.deerfield.il.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=221 Statement on Easterday Assault Weapons Ban LawsuitUpdated April 6 The sole legal issue in the Easterday lawsuit filed by the Illinois State Rifle Association and Second Amendment Foundation is whether the Village lawfully amended its prior assault weapons ordinance under Illinois law. The lawsuit admits that the Village lawfully enacted its prior assault weapons ordinance during the limited period of time which the State Legislature allowed local governments, like the Village, to regulate the possession or ownership of assault weapons. The lawsuit admits that the State Legislature expressly grants the power to amend such an assault weapons ordinance in the future. The lawsuit admits the lawfulness of the Villages ban on the sale of assault weapons. And the lawsuit effectively concedes the lawfulness of the Villages assault weapons ban under the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. When the State Legislature allowed home rule units, like the Village, the opportunity to enact an assault weapons ordinance and amend such an ordinance in the future, the State Legislature recognized that different communities should be allowed to democratically address the possession or ownership of assault weapons in accordance with the different needs and interests of each community. In allowing for amendments to assault weapons ordinance, the State Legislature recognized that communities should be allowed to amend their assault weapons ordinances to address their changing needs and interests. Accordingly, the Village amended its prior assault weapons ordinance to address the Villages best interests for the protection of the Village. The Village is confident that it had the authority to enact the ordinance under existing State law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twostarrz Posted April 7, 2018 at 12:34 AM Share Posted April 7, 2018 at 12:34 AM So in Deerfield only the government or agents of the government are allowed to possess their definition of assault weapons? That in itself is EXACTLY the reason for the second amendment, To combat a tyrannical government. I’m not implying revolution but what to do?
