Wished this was fiction,,, but it is actually true,,, I guess there’s a proposal here in Illinois for a camp fire tax.

This is literally getting out of hand.
There’s another one gaining momentum,, it would require ALL gun owners to be mandated to have gun insurance.
I really wish we had the means to get off off this sinking ship.
It reminds me of the whole sheriff of Nottingham/Robin Hood thing.
Or the Roman Empire with its crushing taxes on people.

Bout on course for Illinois. Look at HB2726, rewilding Illinois with apex predators bears, wolves and mountain lions. Can’t make this stuff up.

This kind of thing isn’t going to stop until there are extreme consequences for drafting such legislation.

The larger the pot of tax money, the more you can scam for your own pocket. Look at MN if you think I am wrong.

Wow.

Something that stupid could only be introduced by someone with a D beside their name.

I didn't see anything in the bill about burning businesses during rioting
No permit required for that I suppose.

And people still don't understand how Looney the left has become.

Gun insurance?


There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.
