Reid has alot to say about this.
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?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.
Hopefully in our favor.This is absolutely not going to end well. A precedent will definitely be set.
Lol, there were times I wasn't sure he had a pulse.Boy that Mr. Boch is a riveting, passionate, and deeply informed advocate here. I hope he isn't the trial lawyer.
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.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?

This could be a good case for scotus.... if they ever take a solid 2a case again.
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.As per Reids video they have FOID cards which are similar to pistol permits, but for long guns.

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.
Have you seen @GOPerfect's avatar?What would you do, if you were on the force there?

I commend that. I know you wouldn't be alone but you would know more if you would be in the majority or minority.I do everything in my power to uphold my Oath. I really cannot think of a time that my Oath was compromised.
So far the legal battle is going well for us!

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.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.”
Unfortunately, the legislative can pass whatever they want and it has to be challenged in court to be struck down.
Ideally there should be reprocussions for legislators who pass laws in violation of civil rights and already existing law, but there isn't.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?
