Three petitions were filed on behalf of Illinois gun owners, asking the U.S. Supreme Court to send a message to defiant courts and state lawmakers, who have all but thumbed their noses at SCOTUS' Second Amendment rulings in passing and upholding new gun restrictions in Illinois and elsewhere
-
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett directed the state to respond to the petitioners' assertions that, not only is the law unconstitutional, but federal judges in Chicago have twisted SCOTUS rulings to say the state is clearly allowed to ban "dangerous" weapons that aren't protected by the Second Amendment

In briefs filed before the U.S. Supreme Court and 7th Circuit Appeals court in Chicago, groups challenging Illinois' 'assault weapons' ban say the state is flat wrong in asserting 'militaristic' weapons aren't protected by the Second Amendment, simply because handguns or shotguns may be more effective for self-defense
-
A Chicago federal judge was wrong to say the state can 'evade' the Second Amendment and prior Supreme Court decisions by simply declaring certain guns as 'particularly dangerous,' the appeal says
-
U.S. District Judge Virginia Kendall said banning so-called 'assault weapons' is acceptable because the state believes the weapons are too "dangerous." Other requests for injunctions vs the gun ban remain pending before other judges
-
The National Association for Gun Rights has challenged restrictions imposed by ordinance in Highland Park and Naperville, saying the bans violate the Second Amendment and are unconstitutional
