The Illinois Attorney General filed 3585 pages of exhibits and arguments in their defense of Illinois’ so-called Protect Illinois Communities Act gun and magazine ban Monday. This ahead of the deadline for final briefs from federal judge Stephen McGlynn. 3585 pages. Think about that.
3585 pages. What a waste of perfectly good trees.
It’s truly astounding. So much so that Mr. Four Boxes Diner – Mark Smith – did a video on it.
Smith points out how Kwame Raoul is trying to get the court to redefine the Heller and Bruen decisions. He’s also trying to coax the courts to once again add an “interest balancing” test to Second Amendment cases like this one.
But when you’re out of good arguments, you’re left with throwing a lot of excrement against the wall to get some of it to stick. And 3585 pages is a lot of fecal matter.
Smith spends a lot of time mocking Kwame’s repeated use of “unprecedented” in their filing for things that were unprecedented.
Here’s their laughable State’s Proposed Conclusions of Law.
Here’s the filings from our side.

There. You’re up to date. Pour yourself about sixteen fingers of your favorite libation and happy reading. You might pop some Zofran before you begin reading the State’s filing.
I’m struggling through the conclusions of law. It is puerile and juvenile and its reasoning. It seems overly repetitive in that they’re saying AR-15s are M16s [I will confess I did not know that when Stoner introduced the AR-15 it was used in military service under that designation. That’s news to me. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s not now.]
I sure hope that when the Supreme Court gets this case it has a chance to undo Heller’s dicta about arms only being used for self-defense. We all know that the primary reason for the implementation of the second amendment was the overthrow of tyrannical government. I would like to hear that said out loud instead of just dancing around it and pretending that the Second Amendment is only about self-defense.
I also want to add that the lawyers on our side are absolutely amazing they are articulate and learned and persuasive. Thanks to gun save life for participating in this and to all of the other organizations for sticking up for our rights. And thanks JB for posting links to everything so we can read it ourselves without doing all the grunt work!
Sorry, I meant the state’s proposed conclusions of law.
I have read the plaintiffs’ proposed conclusions of Law and I am mightily impressed! That is some darned impressive legal scholarship!
I have read a lot of legal briefs over the last four decades and I am so pleased that we are aptly and adequately represented by these firms. You can’t do a much better job but you certainly could have done worse; for instance you could have been in the employee of Kwame Raoul.
And the GSL fellas and Todd Vandermyde feature prominently in this as well. Thank you guys!
ill-i-nois already has gun control ‘laws’ – try getting negro control, assholes
Illinois has such a law its called the FOID card law; the law was passed to stop the sale of firearms to Black people after race riot concerns in 1965-66.
The federal government also passed a law to stop Black people from buying guns through the mail; its called the 1968 GCA. Congress passed the law to stop Black people from buying guns through the mail because, congress was afraid Black people might start defending themselves against Democrats wearing White sheets over their head
In the end the only thing these laws have accomplished is to remove the checks and balance in our society between the good people and the bad guys.
Does someone actually read all of that?
Is the main purpose of it just to delay? I mean, if someone has to spend hours reading all of it, it will further delay before a decision is reached.
Kwame Da Fool keeps showing what a 3rd rate hack he really is. They think they can keep the judge busy for months with this garbage ? It gets so old watching the idiot sheep in this state vote in asswipes like Kwame and the sack of shit Prickster.
That’s what happens when unscrupulous people are allowed to bloviate.
A little humor for a Thursday morning:
U.S. — In response to yet another Democrat shooting someone, gun owners across the country have begun to call for common-sense Democrat control.
“Look, we believe in the second amendment — but keeping guns away from these idiots is just common sense,” said local gun owner Stanley Hartfield. “How many people do Democrats have to shoot before we take action?”
Gun owners across the nation were appalled at the photographs from the scene of the latest incident, lambasting the dangers of letting Democrats near guns. “It’s like giving a big, very dumb baby a rifle,” said Hartfield. “I take that back. Unlike these bozos, a baby wouldn’t put tannerite explosives on the table in front of them, right in the shrapnel zone where it could ignite and kill everyone. Look, you won’t find anyone more pro-gun than me, but this is like giving a drunk puppy a hand grenade.”
Gun ranges across the country have begun taking matters into their own hands, requiring all customers show proof of not being Democrat. “It pains me to do it, but I also don’t want everyone to die,” explained gun range owner Bill Timpson. “These Democrats come in here firing high-powered rifles, using a scope, at steel targets 13 feet away. You are absolutely guaranteed to get high-speed ricochet injuring or killing someone. I can’t fix stupid.”
At publishing time, gun owners made clear that Adam Kinzinger can never be allowed to touch a firearm no matter what party he says he belongs to.

LOL, It’s funny and true all at the same time. Also Adam Kinzinger is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the military as well as a traitor.
Agreed, Bill, we need a little humor once in a while or we might get too depressed to think rationally. Sometimes we need cardboard cutouts of these idiots to use on the range to relieve frustrations. Just a thought.
May God Bless America, again!
