Let's see if the Tribune prints my response:
Rep. Marie Newman whines that "Without [adding] universal background checks, Illinois’ gun laws are only as good as its neighboring states'."
Here are gun violence figures from World Population Review, showing Illinois compared to all those states with the "lax" laws she doesn't like:
IA 293
WI 624
KY 730
IN 1014
MI 1138
MO 1307
IL 1543
Find another excuse, Marie — this tired old one isn't working anymore.

"In its original form, this bill would allow tens of thousands of residents who’ve never completed a background check to now be able to openly carry a handgun in public."
What's next - expressions of fear that these same people would birth and parent children, register to vote and serve on a jury?
