Final schedule to be finalized in February.

CHICAGO MACHINE IS COMING FOR YOUR GUNS

<div class="IPBDescription">From the ISRA</div>[font="Arial"][size="4"]URGENT ALERT CHICAGO MACHINE IS COMING FOR YOUR GUNS<br />
[font="Arial"]<br />
On Tuesday, January 24th, the Chicago gun grabbers launched a surprise attack on your gun rights by moving two pieces of extremist anti-gun legislation out of committee and on to the House floor for consideration.<br />
<br />
The first bill is HB1294. This bill would require the ban and forced confiscation of every semiautomatic firearm you own.<br />
<br />
The second bill is HB1599. If passed, this bill would increase jail time for owners of any guns banned by HB1294.<br />
<br />
THE MACHINE PLAN IS CLEAR THEY WANT TO MAKE IT A FELONY FOR YOU TO EXERCISE YOUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!<br />
<br />
These two bills are not just random attacks on your rights! They have been carefully drafted and coordinated by some of the Chicago Machines most ardent gun grabbers to include: Rep. Edward Acevedo; Rep. Ann Williams; Rep. Greg Harris; Rep. Barbara Flynn Currie; Rep. Karen May; Rep. Carol Sente; Rep. Deborah Mell (Blagos sister-in-law); and Rep. Marlow Colvin.<br />
<br />
IF THESE BILLS PASS, YOU WILL HAVE 90 DAYS TO SURRENDER YOUR GUNS TO THE POLICE OR THE POLICE WILL BE COMING TO YOUR DOOR TO TAKE YOUR GUNS TO THE FURNACE, AND YOU TO THE PENITENTIARY.<br />
<br />
This is the beginning of what could be a very bad year for law-abiding Illinois gun owners. The Chicago Machine does not care about the 2nd Amendment and is dead set on taking your guns away from you. They are not patriots; they are not lovers of freedom; they are not Americans. These people have no respect for our Constitution or the ideals of liberty and self determination envisioned by the Founding Fathers. They know that private firearm ownership is the bedrock of liberty and, if they can take your guns away from you, then they will be able to condemn you and your family to a life of servitude groveling before the Machine for lifes necessities.<br />
<br />
DO NOT LET THE CHICAGO MACHINE BEAT YOU DOWN LIKE A DOG!<br />
<br />
HERE ARE THE THINGS THAT YOU MUST DO TO HELP PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS:<br />
<br />
1. Use the link below to identify your State Representative and politely advise your Representative that you oppose HB1294 and HB1599 and that you expect them to vote against those bills if they come to the House floor for a vote.<br />

<br />
REMEMBER: PRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE 2ND AMENDMENT IS A MORAL AND CULTURAL IMPERATIVE WITHOUT THE FREE EXERCISE OF THE 2ND AMENDMENT, THERE WILL BE NO MORE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!<br />

    [size="4"]If it's a shotgun with a drum magazine you'll need to give it up. If you're talking about a pump action or double/single barrel shotgun, they will generously let you keep it... for now.<br />
    <br />
    By the way, as a resident of the progressive state of Wisconsin (at least until our Governor's recall) and keeping in his SASS character, Snidely Whiplash is proud to announce he opportunistically considering a buying spree of certain functional assault weapons and accompanying ammunition from Flatlanders at the generous price of $1 per weapon.<br />
