Someone help me understand this statement:
“The courts ultimately will decide on the proposed ordinance stating “the people have an individual and fundamental right to keep and bear arms free of infringement by any local, state or federal government; and further, that the method or manner of possession, carrying or transporting said arms shall not be infringed.””
The puzzling question is why courts are routinely overriding the will of the people?
What they are going to find out eventually, unfortunately, is that local ordinances cannot over rule state law.
And yes, I know, Illinois law is effectively “over ruling” the Constitution.
