Illinois Governor Pat Quinn (Orc) is trying his best to try to stymie the inevitable – also the will of the people of Illinois – by dawdling over his veto of Illinois’ bipartisan carry permit bill<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But the bill passed with greater than a 60% majority, and Quinn’s bitchy little veto is likely to get squashed like the legislative cockroach it is.<\/p>\n

For days, Quinn has been pushing for alterations to a bill that would end Illinois\u2019 status as the last state in the nation to ban the concealed carry of weapons in public, which the state must do by Tuesday to meet a federal appeals court\u2019s deadline.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And here’s further proof – to paraphrase Fred Thompson in The Hunt For Red October – <\/em>that Democrats don’t take a dump without trying to gull the low-information voter (with emphasis added):<\/p>\n

Quinn recently has been highlighting Chicago\u2019s violence, saying recent shootings show the need for tougher gun laws<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Chicago has the the “toughest” gun laws in the US today,<\/em> if by “tough” you mean “against the law-abiding citizen”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is so obvious, even Jane Kay and Doug Grow might understand it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be a showdown in Springfield,\u201d Quinn told the crowd gathered in Chicago for a bill signing on anti-gang legislation. Afterward he told reporters that lawmakers should examine his changes carefully.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think they should override common sense. I don\u2019t think they should compromise with public safety,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Because ten dead over one weekend “despite” a complete civilian gun ban isn’t “compromise” enough.\u00a0<\/p>\n

P.S.:\u00a0 By the way, don’t you dare <\/em>say there’s media bias.\u00a0 From the original AP story, with emphasis added by me:<\/p>\n

While Quinn\u2019s changes which include a one-gun limit and a ban on guns in establishments that serve alcohol have been embraced by Chicago\u2019s anti-violence advocates<\/strong>, they\u2019ve received a cold reception from lawmakers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Pejorative much?<\/p>\n

As if gun owners are “pro-violence advocates”?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
