Let me get this straight if someone breaks into my house with an assault riffle and I take it from them and kill them with it I’d still be charged? I’m sure that’s not the intent of the law, but that’s what they said in the video.
These people are nuts. I don’t see how cities can do this.

Boy that Mr. Boch is a riveting, passionate, and deeply informed advocate here. I hope he isn't the trial lawyer.
It would also be nice if FOX weren't running a bunch of video from Parkland, Santa Fe, etc as a sidebar to the interview.

We'll see what happens when they actually start coming for people or if everyone just complies or if they just hold onto their property refusing to turn it in.
This is the sort of thing we've been waiting for and now we just have to wait and see.

This is absolutely not going to end well. A precedent will definitely be set.

Well, Reid is definitely not wrong. A lot of this non-sense revolves around enforcement. The question is: will LEO stand with the constitution, which they've sworn to protect, or will they side with the state policies that violate the constitutional rights of citizens? He makes that point well. I know that it's a question that @Willjr75 also brings up often on here.

It isn't even state policy, it's a rinky dink village ordinance. What I would like to know is how the town knows who has them? I mean they sound like they already know who has them and are going to fine those people 1k per day and or confiscate them. Are they planning on raiding FFLs and digging for info? Are they just going to canvas the entire village hoping to find them? WTF?

As per Reids video they have FOID cards which are similar to pistol permits, but for long guns. Although i dont know if they list the individual firearms on them.
This could be a good case for scotus.... if they ever take a solid 2a case again.

Scotus is a failed branch of government. It’s become completely politicized. It was wrong to consolidate such power like that, and was the one critical mistake of the founders.

I don’t think that guns (even handguns, unlike NY) are listed or registered with the FOID in IL. However, when revoked, the FOID holder is required to self-report all their guns and their disposition.
Surprisingly, compliance is low.
I hope goes full retard!
I am anxious to see how all of this plays out. I want to see what the Chief of Police does and I really want to see what his officers do or not do.
I wait with baited breath to see how many of the residents actually give away their personal property.
I can't wait for the Court decisions as well.
This is some really exiting shit.

'nuff said here.FUDeerfield politicians.
I do everything in my power to uphold my Oath. I really cannot think of a time that my Oath was compromised.

I commend that. I know you wouldn't be alone but you would know more if you would be in the majority or minority.
That's the part that scares me. If this does get to that point country wide will enough military and police choose to uphold the constitution or stick with the government who pays them.

The state's preemption law took effect in 2013. Why the hell was a suit filed for an injunction? The ordinance violated state law and any enforcement of it would have been a lottery win for the victims.
The village should be forced to pay all legal costs for this bullshit. Maybe the people of Deerfield will the feel the pain and fire the morons that passed this.
They look like they're certainly still willing to waste more taxpayer money on this.

“We are reviewing with our legal team the full written opinion that the Judge entered. We will, of course, honor the order issued by the Court and temporarily not enforce the ordinance; but we are certainly going to review all of the options available to the Village, including the right to appeal the decision to the Illinois Appellate Court.”

Well, you are right, there should not have had to have been a lawsuit. The village ordinance clearly violated the state's preemption law. I think they filed suit to be proactive so no one would have to have their property siezed in order to bring suit.
Unfortunately, the legislative can pass whatever they want and it has to be challenged in court to be struck down.
@thewheels

Is this actually the case though? Aren't they required to follow state law? Is there no legal repercussions for passing an ordinance that violates state law?
ArmedCorgi

Ideally there should be reprocussions for legislators who pass laws in violation of civil rights and already existing law, but there isn't.
The Safe Act is one gross example of how legislators can pass something in defiance of the Bill of Rights and have it stick.
The judicial branch cannot proactively strike a law down, it needs to be brought before them via lawsuit. I would imagine it would work the other way with state or local government acting in defiance of federal law. The feds would have to bring suit, otherwise it would stick because no one is enforcing the law or suing for a violation of the law. Like the states that legalized weed and the Obama Justice Dept. that did nothing about it.
