made from a 45 sold by the corporate assholes who buy gun policy for you and ensure people like me live in danger.

The legislature is out of session, but when they were in session I tried to get an expanded background check bill passed. It failed.

The old saying applies, premium Jul 2013 #25

Rep. Phelps just filed to override the veto ExCop-LawStudent Jul 2013 #26

I like both options. premium Jul 2013 #27

So far, 6 or 7 state senators have called for an override of the veto ExCop-LawStudent Jul 2013 #28

As I understand it, the Legislature could also approve the amendments with petronius Jul 2013 #31

It was one or the other option ExCop-LawStudent Jul 2013 #36

You are correct DonP Jul 2013 #37

It's perfectly legal- you just don't like it. friendly_iconoclast Jul 2013 #54

Try to follow the plot BainsBane Jul 2013 #55

"If they are following the proper procedure, what's the problem" BainsBane Jul 2013 #68

That's a pretty crappy thing to say about a lot of elected Democrats DonP Jul 2013 #8

This one doesn't need facts, premium Jul 2013 #9

I'm a Democrat who argues Democratic policy positions BainsBane Jul 2013 #48

whereas you have petty gossip BainsBane Jul 2013 #46

What fucking country do you live in? BainsBane Jul 2013 #50

"What fucking country do you live in?" Jenoch Jul 2013 #61

How do you figure that? BainsBane Jul 2013 #71

Asking somebody that question is insulting. Jenoch Jul 2013 #73

I have insulted policy and positions BainsBane Jul 2013 #75

I didn't even read the post to which you replied. Jenoch Jul 2013 #79

The jury clearly disagreed with you. BainsBane Jul 2013 #82

That is not surprising in the least. Jenoch Jul 2013 #85

couple of drug dealers having a business dispute? gejohnston Jul 2013 #60

Probably I pissed off a couple of gun nuts with CCW BainsBane Jul 2013 #70

I seriously doubt that. gejohnston Jul 2013 #72

How do you know they were drug dealers? BainsBane Jul 2013 #74

How do you know they were CCW holders? Jenoch Jul 2013 #76

I don't BainsBane Jul 2013 #77

If you have Jenoch Jul 2013 #81

Oh, I'm just going based on what you've written before BainsBane Jul 2013 #83

That was one thread and I admitted Jenoch Jul 2013 #88

I'll pass, thanks anyway. BainsBane Jul 2013 #90

no, just playing the law of probabliity. gejohnston Jul 2013 #78

This was a .45 BainsBane Jul 2013 #80

Why did it fail? Jenoch Jul 2013 #62

As you know there are a lot of hunters BainsBane Jul 2013 #69

I do not remember specifically what was in the bill that caused it to fail. Jenoch Jul 2013 #146

Actually, he's a 'unitary executive' going against a Democratic legislature. n/t appal_jack Jul 2013 #44

Okay, I'll try this. (ahem). Which would you prefer? Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #41

As I understand from my googling, the amendatory veto can be over-ridden petronius Jul 2013 #5

3/5 to over ride, a simple majority to agree with AV DonP Jul 2013 #11

It's my opinion that Gov. Quinn is in for a political ass kicking, premium Jul 2013 #12

This is all about politics and the Democrat Primary for Governor next year DonP Jul 2013 #13

wonder what his reason for keeping people defenseless is? ileus Jul 2013 #6

the will of the people wanted GC legislation jimmy the one Jul 2013 #14

You just can't bring yourself to admit that premium Jul 2013 #16

Choose one story or the other DonP Jul 2013 #17

red herring pie jimmy the one Jul 2013 #18

Your garbled, misdirected posts are just not worth bothering with. DonP Jul 2013 #19

"inform you" BainsBane Jul 2013 #53

Got a link to your claim of 60-66% premium Jul 2013 #23

So rather than sign/amend a sensible piece of legislation mandated by the courts...the Gov puts on truebrit71 Jul 2013 #15

glorified 'push' poll jimmy the one Jul 2013 #29

You are so predictable, premium Jul 2013 #30

ROFL!!!! "Sounds like you haz a sad"... truebrit71 Jul 2013 #34

Thank you, thank you, premium Jul 2013 #35

Actually polling data shows the downstate folks BainsBane Jul 2013 #49

Holy shit clffrdjk Jul 2013 #63

So sorry to display emotion BainsBane Jul 2013 #86

Wrong clffrdjk Jul 2013 #95

The emotional trope is a common one BainsBane Jul 2013 #98

More guns mean more gun violence BainsBane Jul 2013 #103

I refuse to discount suicides BainsBane Jul 2013 #109

For me, I glad the guy missed his target CokeMachine Jul 2013 #112

Thank you, Coke Machine BainsBane Jul 2013 #113

Your Welcome!! CokeMachine Jul 2013 #115

That chart has nothing to do with CCW holders premium Jul 2013 #108

Suicides count BainsBane Jul 2013 #110

They count for the people that it affects premium Jul 2013 #116

Those deaths are part of gun fatalities BainsBane Jul 2013 #118

But they're not criminal use of a firearm premium Jul 2013 #119

It doesn't have to be criminal to be deadly BainsBane Jul 2013 #125

Systematically trying to discount human life BainsBane Jul 2013 #111

Human lives are all significant -- CokeMachine Jul 2013 #114

How do you propose to do that? BainsBane Jul 2013 #121

And I am sick and tired of your falsehoods about what we do or don't discount, premium Jul 2013 #117

You just said they don't count in the total of gunshot victims BainsBane Jul 2013 #120

Wrong, why are you lying about what I said? premium Jul 2013 #122

I just pulled my hamstring trying CokeMachine Jul 2013 #123

I have tried, and tried, and tried to be civil with her premium Jul 2013 #124

If that's what you call civil BainsBane Jul 2013 #129

Tell me what I misunderstood then BainsBane Jul 2013 #130

You said suicides should not be counted in the total because they are not criminal BainsBane Jul 2013 #126

No,the VPC is counting CHL holders suicides as a criminal act, premium Jul 2013 #127

If you want me to understand, please spell out your acronyms. BainsBane Jul 2013 #128

Sorry, I thought you knew what VPC was. premium Jul 2013 #133

I knew that one. It's the rest I don't understand BainsBane Jul 2013 #134

Whoops, damned fat fingers, old age sucks. premium Jul 2013 #136

So back to your original point BainsBane Jul 2013 #137

Jeeez, can't you get it right? premium Jul 2013 #139

Mother Jones cites their sources BainsBane Jul 2013 #138

The VPC isn't the source for the data BainsBane Jul 2013 #135

Clearly I have no credibility with you BainsBane Jul 2013 #132

Well, let's look at this for a second, premium Jul 2013 #66

Who is working to make sure they have access to guns? BainsBane Jul 2013 #89

Oh, that's right, I forgot, premium Jul 2013 #91

I'm all for legalization or decriminalization BainsBane Jul 2013 #93

Effective? No, premium Jul 2013 #94

What are LEA's? BainsBane Jul 2013 #96

My apologies, premium Jul 2013 #97

The private industrial prison complex is the real winner BainsBane Jul 2013 #99

We have one of those CCA private prisons premium Jul 2013 #100

Have you considered getting people in Chicago to stop killing kids in general? Might help. n/t Decoy of Fenris Jul 2013 #67

Yeah, the Mayor and Police are working on that BainsBane Jul 2013 #87

Well, it ain't because of a gun ban, premium Jul 2013 #92

and you know that how? BainsBane Jul 2013 #104

because the drop started years after the ban was overturned. gejohnston Jul 2013 #106

Because Chicago's gun ban was overturned premium Jul 2013 #107

So when you guys cite Chicago as evidence of the ills of gun bans BainsBane Jul 2013 #131

Wow! premium Jul 2013 #140

It was a question, not an accusation. BainsBane Jul 2013 #141

Ok, that's a fair question, premium Jul 2013 #142

You still haven't answered the question BainsBane Jul 2013 #143

Oh, come on, premium Jul 2013 #144
