A top IL House Dem is at it again: assault magazine fed revolvers is why we need a ban!
Rep LaShawn Ford is a high ranking democrat in the IL house. He's also the big guy on the house "gun violence" task force. The other day he helped Ram through the IL "assault weapon" and magazine ban. Friday, 1/6, he went on the air....and proved what a complete idiot he is when it comes to guns and gun owners.

First, he flat out says the bans will not do anything. He can't even "interest balance" in favor of this legislation, but rammed it through anyways.
Next, he says that the mass opposition to this legislation (in IL there are things called witness slips in which residents can voice support or opposition to legislation) was not real. Here's the final count on Thursday's total (which they didn't care and advanced it out of committee):

Apparently those people are just bots and don't matter (even though they have to input their names, address, email, contact info, etc....and are all public to see who's taking what position), and the anti-gunners are not active groups like Moms Demand Action and others. They're just "regular people that have jobs and such" and can't always be active (total BS, Moms Demand Action groupies were the stars on Thursday when this legislation advanced).
