An Illinois senator wants the Land of Lincoln to become the fifth state to ban firearms at the polling place. State Sen. Ann Gillespie (D-Arlington Heights) said twenty percent of Illinois polling places are in buildings not designated as “gun-free zones.” “If Texas can see the problem with people bringing guns to vote, then so can Illinois,” said Gillespie. “In these times of intense political division, it’s understandable that people would be concerned about their safety at voting sites. Voters should leave their guns at home. It’s as simple as that.”

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
