2nd Amendment Not An Individual Right

[us_agent]

Anyone see this? Sorry if it's a dup.

HR 855 - Illinois 99th Regular Session (2015-2016) - Open States

It's Illinois. Even in such a backward state, the important bit of info in your link is "Referred to Committee". "Committee" is where lots of bills go to die!

Just throwing something up against the wall to see if it sticks...........will it never end?

All of the rights in the Bill of Rights, are INDIVIDUAL Rights .....

Their purpose is to RESTRICT the .gov .....

Illinois is such a FUBAR state it's hard to take anything they do seriously. It should be a constitutional requirement that the governor and chicago mayor report straight to Joliet for 10 years upon leaving office and save the tax payers the cost of the convictions.

They can cry all they want.
They were slapped down by the Fed. Not State.

Even the dissenting opinion in Heller recognized that the 2A protects an individual right.

I used to snoop around Democratic Underground to get annoyed I guess. Decided I have better things to do and haven't been there in years...but I saw on there one time an anti gun thread and someone posted 'Why are the other 9 individual rights, but the 2nd isn't?'. No one responded to the guy of course....

Anyway, its the first time I saw that comeback to this...and thought it was brilliant.

Last time I checked I was one of those people mentioned in 2A

At least they did not define pi as exactly 3.
