    A federal judge on Friday struck down Illinois' assault weapons ban, ruling it violates the Second and 14th Amendments of the Constitution.

    In a 168-page opinion, Judge Stephen McGlynn compared firearms used for self protection to life boats, airbags, seatbelts and storm shelters.

    The judge stayed his ruling for 30 days, meaning it won't yet be enforced, allowing time for an appeal.

    The state has already appealed.

    He laughs at the libs when 30 people die in a drive-by shooting in Chicago. "Dumb leftists and their hatred of guns."

    In a non mass shooting, the CEO of United Healthcare was shot and killed this morning in Manhattan just before an investor day presentation. Brian Thompson. Seems targeted.

    And all the goats in the valley breathed a collective sigh of relief- their nightmare had finally ended.

    Conservatives, man...

    Could have been a mass shooting, but he only got 2 people.

    The White House Office Of Gun Violence Prevention's website no longer exists.

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/ogvp/

    I wonder what George Wood Wingate and William Conant Church would think.

    (Spoiler: They founded the NRA. At one point, the NRA was in favor of gun safety.)

    AntiBlack Black shooter in Nashville. AP article even went out of the way to mention shooter's race. Of course, they did not mention the White conservative manifesto until the fourth paragraph.

    Cultural exchange is a mofo

    Candace Owens' response to being named by the shooter as an inspiration covers herself in all the glory you would expect.
