Supreme Court allows Illinois 'assault weapons' ban to take effect
FOX NewsMAY 2023
This is some rare good news on gun control from the Supreme Court. Easy gun access has made the US a dangerous place to live, and more than 200 mass shootings in 2023 tell everything about the need to stiffen gun laws. This is a step in the right direction, and hopefully, it’s a sign that voting and advocacy for more gun restrictions will pay off.
This SCOTUS decision is just a small bump in the road to ending Illinois’ unconstitutional ban on hundreds of types of firearms that are owned by law-abiding Americans across the country. Either the lower court or SCOTUS will eventually apply precedent to rightfully uphold the Second Amendment rights of Illinois’ gun owners and sellers.
