Are you people in Illinois insane? Why do you keep electing tyrants.

Don’t look at me. I don’t live in that hell hole. I live in Iowa. We might be crazy but at least we aren’t stupid.

Simple: Our Federal tyrants robed the people of Illinois of their republican government in 1964 with the effective abolition of the State Senate which provided equal representation of the regions of Illinois in their Government.

As a result the City of Chicago took over the entire state, which they uses to dump their failed social projects on.

I feel for the people of Illinois their entire state has been hijacked by an abusive leftist mob thanks to Washington’s overthrow of their republican government.

This Constitution means as little to their Government the Federal Constitution means to the Federal Government.

Not that the Illinois equivalent of the second amendment really meant much more than placating words anyway:

“SECTION 22. RIGHT TO ARMS
Subject only to the police power, the right of the
individual citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be
infringed.
(Source: Illinois Constitution.)”

I moved to Wisconsin. IL is hopeless.

Let’s be blunt about it: Every Illinois resident that is even mildly interested in the idea of freedom should make plans to get the H… out.
