BREAKING: A federal judge in southern Illinois issued an injunction blocking enforcement of the state’s new ban on high-powered firearms and large-capacity ammunition magazines.
Writing that “a constitutional right is at stake,” U.S. District Judge Stephen McGlynn found that the plaintiffs in the case showed that the law caused an “irreparable harm” by denying them the ability to “purchase their firearm of choice” and “exercise their right to self-defense in the manner they choose.
that changes both a local ban and the state law. The U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that ruling, and the gun shop owner intends to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. In addition to the Illinois State Rifle Association, the National Shooting Sports Foundation also is a plaintiff in the federal case before McGlynn in the Southern District.lean heavily on the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, in which the Supreme Court found that the “plain text” of the Second Amendment protected the rights of the plaintiffs to carry guns for self-defense.
Earlier this week, another federal judge in Chicago upheld a separate legal challenge against the ban. That was was brought forth by a doctor who worked at Mercy Hospital & Medical Center on Chicago’s South Side in 2018 when a gunman fatally shot a doctor, pharmacy technician and a Chicago police officer there.
