Iowans vote for liberty while Illinoisans vote for more chains and fewer rights. Of course all the dead from the neck up sheep have to reside and vote on this side of the border.

How refreshing to read that new Amendment and the way it is worded.

Correct! It was enshrined in the 1970 Illinois Constitution. Apparently, most of our legislators are shamefully ignorant about or in denial of our constitutional right.

If they pass any law the police power enforces it, seems worthless to me.

Because I did not understand the term the police power as used above when I got involved in gun rights... I offer the following for others who may be new to this:

 

Quote

In United States constitutional law, the police power is the capacity of the states to regulate behavior and enforce order within their territory for the betterment of the health, safety, morals, and general welfare of their inhabitants.
