mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:08 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:08 PM HB1092 is up. Representative Stoneback presents the bill by offering statistics on criminal behavior. Once again, there are no original thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:10 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:10 PM She acknowledges that Illinois' red flag law has been in effect about 2 years, then expains her bill in terms that imply we have no such law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:13 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:13 PM Back to HB1092, the sponsor addresses concerns over the definition allowing people to file a restraining order by offering more statistics. She ignores the fact that the original bill was negotiated in good faith, and the law she proposes to change would not exist without that negotiation. She fails to recognize now, but will in the future, that her degree of trust in the legislature is being diminished by taking this approach.

mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:14 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:14 PM She is unconcerned about the risk of firearm restraining orders being used as retaliation. In essence, she hasn't seen it so it cannot happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:16 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:16 PM The correction she seeks is that, in her opinion, there have not been enough restraining orders issued. Some would point out that lack of need in that area is a good thing, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:18 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:18 PM Representative McCombie asks, after the bill was negotiated by both sides, with advocates from both side, where this language came from. Heaving a huge sigh of frustration, the sponsor proceeds with a non-answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:21 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:21 PM In response to a question from Rep McCombie, Ms. Stoneback says that, despite her statement that ISP supports her bill, they're neutral only because they have not taken a position on the bill. The Sheriffs are opposed. The Illinois Chiefs are neutral per the sponsor, but Ms. McCombie points out that they are asking for a revision. ISRA opposes, but has offered changes.

mauserme Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:22 PM Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 at 06:22 PM Ms. Stoneback does not have the ISRA document available. Ms. McCombie does have a copy and proceeds with her questioning. Ms. Stoenback is willing to continue the conversation in the Senate. It appears that Ms. McCombie is not willing to give her that opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
