The Illinois House has passed a bill that will force legal gun owners to turn in their weapons to the government or become criminals overnight.
Illinois — The Illinois House has passed a bill that will require legal gun owners to hand over ownership of heretofore legally possessed guns. Now, this most tyrannical bill has moved to the Senate and is one step away from becoming law.
The bill, HB 1465 was sponsored in the House by Rep. Michelle Mussman (D-Schaumburg) and passed with a vote of 64-51 last month.
The legislation would prohibit anyone under 21-years-old from buying or possessing commonly-owned semi-automatic rifles, high-capacity weapons that can hold more than ten rounds, their subsequent attachments, and .50-caliber rifles and cartridges. They would have 90 days to turn in their guns to the government or become criminals. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
Naturally, those opposed to the bill have been outspoken pointing out the tyranny of the government stealing once-legally owned property from individuals based on the arbitrary number of birthdays they’ve had.
Mussman claims that the bill won’t have cops going door to door to confiscate weapons—yet—but it will make keeping your once-legal gun a crime.
Rest assured that this is the exact same model that Donald Trump is pushing for on the federal level as he has already been outspoken about taking guns from 18-20-year-old adults.
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump betrayed his base and Americans in general as he advocated for confiscating guns with no due process.
“I like taking the guns early like in this crazy man’s case that just took place in Florida … to go to court would have taken a long time,” Trump said at a meeting with lawmakers on school safety and gun violence.
“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.
This blatant attack on the very thing that makes America great, due process, has been in the making since before the Florida shooting, but Trump appears to be striking while the iron is hot. And his supporters couldn’t care less.

Earlier this month, president Trump told a group of lawmakers that they must do something to keep guns away from mentally ill individuals – even if that means raising the minimum age for rifle ownership to 21 and making all 18-20 year-olds who have guns, criminals overnight. He is also going after gun parts as well.
His attack on the Constitution has gotten him praise by the left and is met with silence by his supporters who are conducting mental gymnastics to praise this man who is calling for the removal of due process and the removal of their right to self-defense.
While the current legislation in Illinois claims to only go after semi-automatic rifles, the wording of the bill also makes it possible to go after handguns too if they decide to interpret the definition in a certain way.
As the bill states, it will ban any weapon with “a shroud that is attached to, or partially
or completely encircles the barrel.” This could technically be applied to most modern handguns.
Indeed, the now-expired Federal Assault Weapons Ban included a barrel shroud in its list of features for which a semi-automatic pistol could be banned (two features in the list were required), the logic being that a barrel shroud would be cool enough for a shooter to grip and better control their firearm.
It seems that the hollow claim by government that “nobody wants to confiscate your guns” is nothing more than a pack of lies used to calm those who aren’t paying attention.
Make no mistake, even if this bill does not affect you directly, it is just the beginning. Government works in increments to erode everyone’s rights but slowly enough so people can continue to think “it won’t affect me.” Remember this warning for the future as more and more people are stripped of their right to defend themselves—first, they came for the under 21-year-olds.

Florida fell victim to President Trump's New York Values, and now Illinois is about to follow suit.

Is it a retroactive law? Any compensation?

Is it a retroactive law?
It's not law yet, and it's still "legal" at the moment. Yes, it's retroactive.
High velocity lead will be the most likely compensation for the attempted theft. There's no compelling public interest like there might be in eminent domain compensation, of land taken for highways and the like.

My thought is if the person is not mature enough to have a weapon then they are not mature enough to vote, consume alcohol(any drug of choice), fight wars or drive a vehicle. So why not take away those rights as well?
If you are going to take one right might as well take them all and treat them as a child until they are 21. That way when they are 21 they have no clue how to live!!
BTW
Im still good with Trump because Hilary would have taken all gun rights away from legal citizen and a whole lot worse. I still think Trump is doing what Trump does if he knows he is in a bad bargaining position which is to claim all kinds of nonsense delay and wear out his opponent until he can get what he wants. You guys get rattled by a light breeze which I find bizarre and irritating. Its like having a crybaby in a foxhole!

They will eventually. In the end,only Party Members will be allowed to vote,and they will vote for who they are told to vote for.
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.

Disagree. Trump has the GOP's help in accomplishing the destruction of America. Hillary would have been opposed, and fail to get the votes in congress necessary for total devistation.

You are crazy! Hillary would be queen of the world by now because she is backed by the right people.
Trump is the only one fighting for your rights that has power to do so. You may not like his method but he has been extremely effective.
Your problem is you jump at everything when you need to sit back and see the whole field of play. Trump is mopping the floors with the demoncraps. Something no one else has ever done and you just whine about how he hasn't done enough being just one person! OMG!!!! Just remember he does not have the press so he has to be covert about his methods.

How bad do we the people need to win a war?
The reason why armies use young is they can be molded them into a machine they can use.
