Deerfield IL Assault Weapons Ban
Guess you are going to be fined $1K a day in Derfield IL if you have an assault weapon that is registered with the state until you turn it in. This is worse than MA actually. Going to be very interested to see what happens come the June deadline:

The people that instituted and approved such shit should be removed from office for acting not in accordance with the Constitution and held financially accountable for damages caused.

From the Illinois constitution:
SECTION 15. RIGHT OF EMINENT DOMAIN Private property shall not be taken or damaged for public use without just compensation as provided by law. Such compensation shall be determined by a jury as provided by law. SECTION 22. RIGHT TO ARMS Subject only to the police power, the right of the individual citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. SECTION 24. RIGHTS RETAINED The enumeration in this Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the individual citizens of the State. ARTICLE XII MILITIA SECTION 1. MEMBERSHIP The State militia consists of all able-bodied persons residing in the State except those exempted by law. SECTION 2. SUBORDINATION OF MILITARY POWER The military shall be in strict subordination to the civil power. SECTION 3. ORGANIZATION, EQUIPMENT AND DISCIPLINE The General Assembly shall provide by law for the organization, equipment and discipline of the militia in conformity with the laws governing the armed forces of the United States. SECTION 4. COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AND OFFICERS (a) The Governor is commander-in-chief of the organized militia, except when they are in the service of the United States. He may call them out to enforce the laws, suppress insurrection or repel invasion. (b) The Governor shall commission militia officers who shall hold their commissions for such time as may be provided by law. SECTION 5. PRIVILEGE FROM ARREST Except in cases of treason, felony or breach of peace, persons going to, returning from or on militia duty are privileged from arrest. Seems like they may have a constitutional case on their hands.

First Illinois does not now or ever in the past register any firearms. No list and no way for Deerfield to know who has what. Second as the state pasted a preemption law Deerfield does not have the legal authority to pass or enforce this law. Multiple law suits already filed against this really stupid law. It will not last long
