Illinois state Rep. Bob Morgan (D) is currently pushing “assault weapons” registration and a gun owner’s fee and claims that AR-15s are not used to defend against home intruders.
Breitbart News reported on December 15 that Morgan is pushing a multi-faceted gun control bill, confident of its passage in the Illinois legislature, where Democrats have control.
Morgan’s bill would ban “assault weapons,” but allow those who already own them to keep them, providing they register the guns with the state. Moreover, residents who already own guns that Democrats call “assault weapons” would have to pay a $25 fee.
