REP. SCOTT DRURY AND CONCEAL CARRY IN ILLINOIS

Why do the residents in Rep. Scott Drury's District, elect him? As a former federal prosecutor and an attorney, it amazes me and many others that Rep. Scott Drury had fought to prevent the Passing of an Illinois Conceal Carry Law. Even after a federal court, Ordered the State of Illinois to stop violating our Second Amendment Constitutional Rights and struck down the Ban on Concealed Carry in Illinois, Rep. Scott Drury voted against the Passing of the Conceal Carry Law in Illinois. The State of Illinois and AG Lisa Madigan were held in Contempt of Court by the Illinois Supreme Court for not creating a Conceal Carry Law, after the State Supreme court struck down the unConstitutional Ban on Conceal Carry in Illinois. Are the people of Rep. Scott Drury's District not able to see that the Constitution has been violated and therefore, not support a man that wanted to violate the Constitution even longer? By means of the Constitution we have inalienable Rights. These Rights do not stop at the Mason / Dixon Line or at I-80. We must not allow the Constitutional Rights of our citizens to be violated and the Right to Bear Arms is an essential Right. In fact, it is the ONLY Right that bears these words... SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!
