CALL IN TO BLOCK COOK COUNTY GUN BAN!

The Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA) has sent out an alert regarding a telephone poll in Cook County where callers can vote for or against gun-control ordinances; it's important to note that you do not need to be a resident of Cook County to vote. According to ISRA, the Cook County Board is attempting to justify passage of gun-control ordinances designed to close all gun shops and ban and confiscate most guns owned by citizens of the county. ISRA says here's what callers should do: Call 1-312 -603-6400 and select Option 1 when prompted. At the next prompt, select Option 1 again. Then, when prompted to vote on the gun-control ordinance, press 2. It's important to let all your gun-owning friends know about this and have them vote too; also, post this alert to your Internet sites and blogs.

called. Took 56 seconds.

Went and did a little more research. Found this:

WHEREAS, one of the major contributors to the level and severity of violent crime in Cook County is the widespread availability of firearms.

WHEREAS, guns cause more death and destruction than any other weapon commonly available in our society today — routinely accounting for approximately three-quarters of all homicides committed in this County, and costing our citizens millions of dollars in associated costs for healthcare, police and the criminal justice system.

Just read this, but I will make the call as well as few more old KY boys. Maybe the Supreme court will rule on the DC ban, and do away with some of this nonsense. Any ban is unconstitutional. That is why it is written as it is.
