During the last minute secession that saw the NRA compromise on an amendment too SB1034, State Representative Mike Bost threw an absolute fit on the House floor because he said they didn’t have time to consider and ponder over the legislation sent to them. (video link below it’s 1.33 minutes long, a must see)
The bad part is even with the claim that the Illinois House didn’t have time to consider and ponder over legislation the House still passed SB1034 because the NRA told them too! Now thanks to this list minute deal the “NO FLY LIST, TERROR WATCH LIST and VETERANS DISARMAMENT LIST” can be added to the FOID data base. PLUS the amendment will allow for a massive up-grade too the data base the runs the current outdated FOID card system.
Attorney General Eric Holder wanted the up-grades and the NRA capitulated. Apparently the NRA is happy with the gun control requirements of the Illinois FOID card. The Bill is BAD and it was made at the last minute without any regards to the people their property or their lives! We don’t need the FOID card in Illinois so why did the NRA/ISRA save it again?
We still have a chance to stop this bill by having the governor to veto the bill.

Feel free to add your opinion in comments. If you disagree, let's hear why.
And all manner of people seem to think I'M the one acting against the interests of firearm owners when I speak out against the NRA...
ReplyDeleteI don't know who wrote that, but their inarticulate writing doesn't impress me. When he wrote that "we still have a chance to stop this bill..." I completely tuned this individual out as wasting my time.
ReplyDeleteDoes he really think the Governor is going to veto this bill? If so, he's either high or an idiot.
How about if you address his reasons for objecting?
