He is like a turd you cannot flush, it just keeps swirling the bowl!


Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker has signed a law banning firearms advertising that officials determine produces a public safety threat or appeals to children, militants or others who might later use the weapons illegally — opening the door for lawsuits against firearms manufacturers or distributors.

Pritzker on Saturday signed the Firearm Industry Responsibility Act, making Illinois the eighth state to approve legislation that rolls back legal protections for firearms manufacturers or distributors. The legislation comes after the deadliest six months of mass killings recorded in the United States since at least 2006 — all but one of which involved guns.

Pritzker signed the bill alongside lawmakers and gun control advocates at Gun Sense University, an annual training conference of more than 2,000 Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action volunteers and survivors, hosted by Everytown for Gun Safety.

 
This is theatre...completely pointless. After Sandy Hook, all firearm manufacturers are going to be very fucking careful about advertising especially to minors. You didn't need a law because it wasn't going to happen. Remington learned the hard way -


 
Sorry that Chicago ruined Illinois. The Remington settlement was between an insurance company and a lawyer. Remington wasn't involved by then.

They are targeting the JR15 and any image of 20 and under using a firearm. Next will be a law saying that allowing children to shoot a firearm in Illinois is child abuse.
