Illinois Gun Rights at Risk

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:15,760 Music. 2 00:00:15,603 --> 00:00:19,983 Hey, welcome to another episode of The Hammer Drops. I'm your host, Layak. 3 00:00:20,643 --> 00:00:25,743 Today, on this Saturday episode of the show, we're not going to talk about Joe Biden. 4 00:00:25,843 --> 00:00:29,803 We're not going to talk about the fact that his State of the Union address was 5 00:00:29,803 --> 00:00:31,243 nothing but lies and propaganda. 6 00:00:31,643 --> 00:00:35,503 We won't even talk about the fact that he's trying to sit there and say that 7 00:00:35,503 --> 00:00:43,263 Trump had a 30% increase in murders under him when he was on his last year of presidency, 8 00:00:43,683 --> 00:00:49,543 which those numbers Joe Biden got from the CDC, and that raises questions there 9 00:00:49,543 --> 00:00:52,183 all on its own. We're not going to talk about that. 10 00:00:52,703 --> 00:00:55,603 And you're probably like, what? I'm not going to talk about it. 11 00:00:56,443 --> 00:00:59,723 This is what we're going to talk about today. Today, one of our listeners sent 12 00:00:59,723 --> 00:01:02,363 us over some information about HB 3239, 13 00:01:02,683 --> 00:01:08,503 which directly affects any legal gun owner in the state of Illinois or anybody 14 00:01:08,503 --> 00:01:12,703 that legally wants to be able to purchase a gun in the state of Illinois. 15 00:01:13,223 --> 00:01:19,863 It's got a lot of implications because it's essentially, with this bill, 16 00:01:20,043 --> 00:01:25,883 it's almost like it's going to take away the right to be able to own a firearm. 17 00:01:26,603 --> 00:01:33,903 And it's starting up its own registry, which we were all against for the longest time. 18 00:01:34,063 --> 00:01:37,763 Remember when Missouri tried to do that? that, you know, the FBI was trying 19 00:01:37,763 --> 00:01:40,043 to do a registry and they want to know where all the guns are at. 20 00:01:40,163 --> 00:01:42,923 Well, the state of Illinois, if this bill passes, guess what? 21 00:01:42,983 --> 00:01:46,663 The state of Illinois, whether you want to or not, they're going to know where 22 00:01:46,663 --> 00:01:49,063 your guns are. And we're going to get into that. 23 00:01:49,943 --> 00:01:54,083 Also, we're going to put, I'm going to point out some interesting things because 24 00:01:54,083 --> 00:02:03,083 another state has done this already and it's not going well for them either. 25 00:02:03,683 --> 00:02:08,983 So let's get into this bill. bill. Okay. And I'm going to read the whole kind 26 00:02:08,983 --> 00:02:10,803 of the summary of the, the bill. 27 00:02:11,787 --> 00:02:15,587 And what it is, and then we're going to get into the meanings behind it. 28 00:02:15,667 --> 00:02:19,167 But pay attention to what I'm reading. 29 00:02:19,307 --> 00:02:24,567 And if you want to read it yourself, just do a search HB 3239. 30 00:02:24,947 --> 00:02:27,227 You'll pop it up, and you can be able to read it. 31 00:02:27,627 --> 00:02:35,647 So basically, what this bill is saying, okay, it amends the FOID Act, the FOID Card Act. 32 00:02:35,647 --> 00:02:43,247 It provides that if an applicant is applying for or renewing a FOID card, 33 00:02:43,427 --> 00:02:47,567 he or she must submit evidence to the state of Illinois, 34 00:02:47,847 --> 00:02:53,047 state of Illinois State Police, that he or she completed at least eight hours 35 00:02:53,047 --> 00:02:58,227 of handgun safety training approved by the director of the state of the Illinois State Police. 36 00:02:58,707 --> 00:03:01,907 Now, this sounds all fine and dandy like you would agree to it, 37 00:03:01,987 --> 00:03:03,847 but you'll understand here. 38 00:03:03,847 --> 00:03:10,547 Okay, so it also provides that notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, 39 00:03:10,807 --> 00:03:13,807 each local law enforcement agency 40 00:03:13,807 --> 00:03:17,427 shall issue a firearm permit to an 41 00:03:17,427 --> 00:03:24,607 applicant who seeks the purchase of a firearm to verify the identity of the 42 00:03:24,607 --> 00:03:30,407 purchaser and shall complete a full criminal background check of the applicant 43 00:03:30,407 --> 00:03:34,847 that includes obtaining fingerprints from the prospective firearm purchaser. 44 00:03:35,047 --> 00:03:40,887 It also provides that each local law enforcement agency shall keep records of 45 00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:44,747 those permits and make them available to the Illinois State Police through law 46 00:03:44,747 --> 00:03:46,587 enforcement agency data systems. 47 00:03:47,047 --> 00:03:55,367 It also provides that the duration of the permit shall be 10 days after its issuance. 48 00:03:55,647 --> 00:04:01,147 Provides that local law enforcement agencies may deny a permit to purchase a 49 00:04:01,147 --> 00:04:07,307 firearm to an applicant of the agency and its discretion believes it is in the 50 00:04:07,307 --> 00:04:15,087 interest of public safety amends the criminal code of 2012 to make conforming changes. So. 51 00:04:16,135 --> 00:04:19,635 It may sound good, but here's what is actually going on. 52 00:04:20,535 --> 00:04:23,355 So for all those that live in Illinois that has a FOID card, 53 00:04:23,415 --> 00:04:28,635 which we're one of two states that you are required to have a FOID card. 54 00:04:28,855 --> 00:04:31,695 A FOID card, you have to do a background check. 55 00:04:31,815 --> 00:04:34,575 They do a background check on you, and as long as you pass everything, 56 00:04:34,875 --> 00:04:38,455 they issue you a FOID card to be able to buy a firearm. 57 00:04:39,095 --> 00:04:44,315 Well, now you got to go through that. And then if you want to buy a gun before 58 00:04:44,315 --> 00:04:48,015 you can even think about buying a gun, you have to show that you took that eight 59 00:04:48,015 --> 00:04:52,375 hour class, which sounds or, you know, when you renew, take the eight hour class. 60 00:04:52,375 --> 00:04:55,475 Sounds all fine and dandy until, lo and behold, 61 00:04:55,775 --> 00:05:02,875 the only places you can go for those said classes are at police stations, 62 00:05:03,135 --> 00:05:08,515 which they're already being deemed funded and overworked and don't have the time. 63 00:05:09,475 --> 00:05:14,015 So they're essentially going to eliminate the middle person for those classes. 64 00:05:14,535 --> 00:05:18,555 And we're going to get into that a little bit more. So then you're not going 65 00:05:18,555 --> 00:05:22,395 to be able to show that you took those eight hours. So then you're not going to get this permit. 66 00:05:22,495 --> 00:05:25,975 And if for some reason you are able to get this permit through going to your 67 00:05:25,975 --> 00:05:30,055 local police department, if for any reason, like said there, 68 00:05:30,155 --> 00:05:34,315 they think that it's not in the best interest, they can deny it. 69 00:05:34,715 --> 00:05:40,635 Or if they give one to you, you also now have to go through another background check. 70 00:05:40,635 --> 00:05:43,655 Check so that's two background checks before you 71 00:05:43,655 --> 00:05:47,075 can even walk into the doors of a 72 00:05:47,075 --> 00:05:50,475 gun store and purchase a gun at all 73 00:05:50,475 --> 00:05:55,115 because now you need that permit okay so say you make it that far you get the 74 00:05:55,115 --> 00:06:01,775 permit all that stuff you have 10 days to essentially shop around find what 75 00:06:01,775 --> 00:06:05,895 gun you want the gun store all that stuff so you have to do this within 10 days 76 00:06:05,895 --> 00:06:09,515 if you don't if he goes beyond Beyond 10 days, well, 77 00:06:09,615 --> 00:06:12,335 now you have to redo it all over again. So now you're back to square one. 78 00:06:13,315 --> 00:06:15,535 So now you find the gun, you're at the gun store. 79 00:06:16,715 --> 00:06:23,575 Now you have to go through yet another background check to be able to buy a gun. 80 00:06:24,095 --> 00:06:29,195 Once you go through that, the store is now required and you are now required 81 00:06:29,195 --> 00:06:34,735 to give that information to your local police department of what kind of gun you bought. 82 00:06:34,735 --> 00:06:41,235 Bought, all the registration information for that gun will now be in the system, 83 00:06:41,335 --> 00:06:45,455 which is what they wanted the whole time. But here's the kicker, folks. 84 00:06:45,935 --> 00:06:50,735 The state of California has a similar, well, actually the same thing going on over there. 85 00:06:51,215 --> 00:06:56,535 The problem with the state of California is they took out the middleman as well. 86 00:06:56,975 --> 00:07:01,115 So now the only place that you can go and get these said permits to be able 87 00:07:01,115 --> 00:07:07,655 to continue with the process of being able to buy a firearm is to find a police 88 00:07:07,655 --> 00:07:10,895 department that you can go take this class. 89 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,520 And be able to purchase a gun, be able to move on to that next level. 90 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:23,440 Problem is, like the state of California, they've been defunded, overworked. 91 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,480 They don't have the resources to be able to do these classes. 92 00:07:26,860 --> 00:07:32,760 So therefore, the law-abiding citizen that wants to buy a gun to be able to 93 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:40,180 protect themselves, go hunting, whatever, can now no longer do that because you can't get the class. 94 00:07:40,180 --> 00:07:43,000 This is just a way 95 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,000 for them to take away your your 96 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:52,300 constitutional right to have a firearm not only i mean the state of illinois 97 00:07:52,300 --> 00:07:56,900 is so bad we already have strict gun laws here but and now we have an assault 98 00:07:56,900 --> 00:08:01,980 rifle ban and all this other stuff i mean they're literally doing everything 99 00:08:01,980 --> 00:08:05,900 and anything that they can to take your second amendment rights away way. 100 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:11,600 So this bill goes up on March 12th at 4 p.m. 101 00:08:11,860 --> 00:08:16,240 For a vote. And chances are pretty good because everybody knows the state of 102 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,880 Illinois is so goddamn corrupted with J.B. Pritzker and all the rest of the 103 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,620 Democrats down there. This bill is going to pass. 104 00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:27,700 And I know there's a lot of law abiding citizens that have firearms right now 105 00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:35,200 that aren't going with the whole registry that the state state of Illinois currently wants. 106 00:08:35,340 --> 00:08:38,700 And this way, now they have to. 107 00:08:39,340 --> 00:08:43,880 You own a gun, it's going to be registered. So now your government, 108 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:49,540 and this is huge government overreach, is going to know everything that you own. 109 00:08:49,820 --> 00:08:54,340 So now if you own too many guns, guess what? You're going to have a knock on 110 00:08:54,340 --> 00:08:56,980 your door saying, we have a problem. 111 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,720 Or say if somebody at the police department doesn't don't agree with you. 112 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,080 They know that you're a conservative or whatever, that you don't support their 113 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,580 chief of police or the county sheriff. 114 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:18,180 They can deny you for any reason that they want and just label it as it's the 115 00:09:18,180 --> 00:09:21,940 best interest of public safety that you do not get a firearm, 116 00:09:22,140 --> 00:09:23,460 that you do not get this permit. 117 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,060 You see what's happening here, folks? Folks, as you're sleeping, 118 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,520 they are literally continuing to work on to take your gun rights. 119 00:09:34,020 --> 00:09:40,920 Now, if you've seen Illinois and the crime has how it's risen in Chicago, 120 00:09:41,220 --> 00:09:44,260 all around Chicago, the suburbs, all of it. 121 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,580 We have the migrant problem. 122 00:09:48,220 --> 00:09:55,540 They're causing nothing but crime and havoc and all that. That you have people 123 00:09:55,540 --> 00:10:01,280 in broad daylight being held up on the streets for all their stuff. 124 00:10:01,780 --> 00:10:04,960 And yet we have these strict gun laws. 125 00:10:05,260 --> 00:10:10,840 But if you're a criminal, it's okay. You're going to be fine. 126 00:10:12,130 --> 00:10:16,370 This is what happens, and this is why voting is so important, 127 00:10:16,790 --> 00:10:22,570 because who you vote for is why this is happening. 128 00:10:22,570 --> 00:10:28,530 So for those good people over there in West Chicago who decided that they wanted 129 00:10:28,530 --> 00:10:33,570 to elect Maura Hirschauer, which is a Democrat, 130 00:10:33,910 --> 00:10:41,210 her district office is at 946 Nelknor Boulevard, number 104, 131 00:10:41,550 --> 00:10:45,030 West Chicago, Illinois, 60185. 132 00:10:45,350 --> 00:10:52,230 Her phone number for her office is area code 331-465-9661. 133 00:10:52,570 --> 00:10:56,230 Make sure if you're listening to this and you live in the state of Illinois, 134 00:10:56,390 --> 00:11:02,690 that you call before March 12th to let her know your displeasure with this bill 135 00:11:02,690 --> 00:11:04,630 that she is trying to get passed. 136 00:11:05,090 --> 00:11:13,390 Make sure that you contact all your local representatives to express that you 137 00:11:13,390 --> 00:11:15,650 do not want this bill at all. 138 00:11:16,210 --> 00:11:19,810 Because if we don't, folks, this bill will pass. 139 00:11:20,510 --> 00:11:25,110 Our gun rights will be taken away very, very slowly. They will be just eroding 140 00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:26,550 in front of your very eyes. 141 00:11:26,650 --> 00:11:28,750 And there's not a fucking thing you can do about it. 142 00:11:29,550 --> 00:11:34,070 And here's the thing. Over in California, like I said, this is happening over there. 143 00:11:34,710 --> 00:11:40,070 They don't have the funding. They don't have the manpower to be able to, 144 00:11:40,070 --> 00:11:42,330 you know, for the police to be able to have these classes. 145 00:11:42,410 --> 00:11:44,810 And that is exactly what's happening here in Illinois. 146 00:11:45,650 --> 00:11:48,130 The whole defund the police thing, and now let's usher in this. 147 00:11:48,250 --> 00:11:49,610 You starting to connect the dots? 148 00:11:50,410 --> 00:11:57,010 I mean, they all say we're conspiracy theorists all along, ever since Joe Biden took fucking office. 149 00:11:57,610 --> 00:12:00,570 It's all conspiracy. It's all conspiracy theories. It's this and that, 150 00:12:00,670 --> 00:12:05,870 but every conspiracy theory or every theory that we have had has come to fruition, 151 00:12:06,110 --> 00:12:09,590 come to light, and this is no different. 152 00:12:10,190 --> 00:12:15,810 They've been actively trying to take our guns for a very long time to push their agenda. 153 00:12:16,110 --> 00:12:20,110 Do you realize the only thing that is protecting our sovereignty, 154 00:12:20,330 --> 00:12:25,170 our constitutional republic, is our right to bear arms, to protect ourselves 155 00:12:25,170 --> 00:12:30,550 against our government if we so have to? 156 00:12:31,150 --> 00:12:35,050 You know why there's no other country that has invaded the United States yet? 157 00:12:35,170 --> 00:12:38,410 It's because we have the right to own firearms. 158 00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:40,650 And they're literally taking it away. 159 00:12:41,170 --> 00:12:46,270 Gavin Newsom over there in California, Mr. Buddy Buddy with Xi Jinping over there in China. 160 00:12:46,790 --> 00:12:53,530 China would love for us not to have our gun rights because without our gun rights, 161 00:12:54,330 --> 00:12:55,470 anybody can come in and take over. 162 00:12:56,772 --> 00:12:59,632 That's reality, folks. That's what's happening right now. 163 00:13:00,532 --> 00:13:07,432 I urge you, if you voted Democrat, you might want to change your tune. Do your homework. 164 00:13:07,892 --> 00:13:14,192 Look at what they're doing.
