ILgunguy Posted August 7, 2022 at 01:39 PM Share Posted August 7, 2022 at 01:39 PM Did I just hear that Glen Ellyn wants to propose an AWB (nevermind state preemption)? Anyone have any info on this? Possession or sales? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt B Posted August 7, 2022 at 02:49 PM Share Posted August 7, 2022 at 02:49 PM Haven’t heard anything. Would be pure virtue signaling. Doubt they would pass a possession ban since the other municipalities are only going after sales (and a possession ban is preempted).. and I’m pretty sure there are no ffls in town so what’s the point of a sales ban.

Black Flag Posted August 7, 2022 at 06:54 PM Share Posted August 7, 2022 at 06:54 PM The ISRA spent $0.57 of my hard earned money sending this to my snail when an email alert might have the same or more impact.

SiliconSorcerer Posted August 7, 2022 at 08:27 PM Share Posted August 7, 2022 at 08:27 PM As much as I'm not happy with the ISRA I've heard not of a word of this elsewhere, so I appreciate the 57 cents being spent. I kind of know the president, he will be cc'd on my letter to the village's attorney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Additional expenditure? $0.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiliconSorcerer Posted August 8, 2022 at 04:14 PM Share Posted August 8, 2022 at 04:14 PM It's said village board so I have nothing further, I've sent a letter to the village lawyer and the president and they are currently working on my FOI (asking questions) I asked any correspondence from/to an Glen Ellyn by a specific email so it shouldn't be to hard. I kept this simple so I can get the answer prior to the meeting. That being said the village board is pretty much hand picked by "Glen Ellyn Civic Betterment Party" a committee that interviews and recommends candidates to support, without their support they will bury you if necessary.

You mean the Village of Glen Ellyn is not holding a workshop about banning semi-auto firearms while being tugged along by the Moms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was assured there is no plan to address the issue during any meeting of the Board and no agenda including the matter for an upcoming meeting in the foreseeable future. It was a pleasant and polite exchange I have no reason to doubt this otherwise where the ISRA came up with this IDK. I wasn't born here but it's been a very long time.
