BobPistol Posted December 21, 2022 at 03:40 PM Share Posted December 21, 2022 at 03:40 PM ISP director basically said there will be no enforcement. Even if State Police does enforcement in 2A sanctuary counties - there will be no prosecution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would that special prosecutor work for? State or county? If county, game over. No prosecution. If the state AG prosecutes - would he do it by himself (e.g. Raoul) or delegate it to one of his AAG's? I doubt the former. Are there AAG's in every county that work for the state? If not, that's a lot of driving for a special prosecutor to do. I'm wondering how many AAG's there would be appointed to make this happen - and how that will affect the prosecution of other cases. There's how many sanctuary counties versus how many AAG's on Rauol's payroll? I'm thinking this won't be viable. Or a Cloward-Piven action that's on purpose with disastrous results.

davel501 Posted December 21, 2022 at 04:52 PM Share Posted December 21, 2022 at 04:52 PM They've been doing registration for a while now. They know where the newer ARs are. They just need to make a few public arrests after the 300 day registration period expires and people will be dumping their stuff like crazy. I'd suspect that's the real goal is that people pass on registration then get scared and get them out of the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedbump Posted December 21, 2022 at 05:20 PM Author Share Posted December 21, 2022 at 05:20 PM Non compliance + Non prosecution/ Conviction = Nullification. Todd V is correct: there will be massive civil disobedience & non compliance. Connecticut had the highest compliance rate, and that was only @15%. All other places were in the single digits.

John Q Public Posted December 21, 2022 at 07:45 PM Share Posted December 21, 2022 at 07:45 PM Well, I have some thoughts on what they might do, but I refuse to help them do it by putting thoughts on it here. The best option is to donate all you can to get any of these kind of laws overturned. Time for talk, and capitulation is done, it's time for court. I would encourage everyone not to help them think of ways to enforce this or any like it. We can be our own worst enemy at times, giving them the info they need, or plugging the holes by telling them about them. Please don't do that here!

For the states like NY or CT, what effect did the laws have on ranges that used to allow ARs? Non-compliance while keeping hidden and silent is one thing, but personal training and practice will suffer without a place to shoot. I'd wager that most of us don't live on property where we can shoot legally and freely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilguy Posted December 22, 2022 at 07:41 AM Share Posted December 22, 2022 at 07:41 AM Since we shouldn’t discuss details of the problems we see with this law where do we get information on dealing with it if enacted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richp Posted December 22, 2022 at 10:56 AM Share Posted December 22, 2022 at 10:56 AM lilguy, I share your concerns about how this will change the environment for firearm owners in Illinois. But if this is enacted, it may be in a different form, and immediate litigation may very well enjoin its implementation. So there will be plenty of time to sort out how to deal with whatever remains after all that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this story where NYC's gun owners' names and addressed were published? https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/news/york-newspaper-publishes-gun-owners-names-addresses-154215176.html The Associated Press tried to do the same thing in Illinois in March of 2011, using their employee, political reporter John O'Connor, to try to get the FOID list so that AP could publish info about the FOID holders. This article does not mention that it was O'Connor's John Hancock on the request, but that's still out there and can be verified. https://pantagraph.com/news/state-and-regional/illinois/attorney-general-illinois-must-release-foid-card-list/article_cdae2224-445d-11e0-bde0-001cc4c03286.html Here was the anti-gun press generating its own anti-gun news. Must be nice. On the other hand, the ISRA filed suit and all the FOID info got locked away and protected. Did Mr O'Connor do us all a favor with the unintended consequence?
