Illinois counties declare 'sanctuary' status for gun ownershttp://www.fox32chicago.com/news/local/five-illinois-counties-declare-sanctuary-status-for-gun-owners

At least five counties recently passed resolutions declaring themselves sanctuary counties for gun owners — a reference to so-called sanctuary cities such as Chicago that don't cooperate with aspects of federal immigration enforcement.

The resolutions are meant to put the Democratic-controlled Legislature on notice that if it passes a host of gun bills, including new age restrictions for certain weapons, a bump stock ban and size limit for gun magazines, the counties might bar their employees from enforcing the new laws.

"It's a buzzword, a word that really gets attention. With all these sanctuary cities, we just decided to turn it around to protect our Second Amendment rights," said David Campbell, vice chairman of the Effingham County Board. He said at least 20 Illinois counties and local officials in Oregon and Washington have asked for copies of Effingham County's resolution.

County officials fear their state legislators won't be able to stop the passage of the gun restrictions because they are outnumbered by lawmakers from in and around Chicago, where the vast majority of the more than 650 homicides last year involved guns.

Co-opting the sanctuary title is also a way of drawing attention to the rural-urban political divide that was so stark in the last general election, when "downstate" areas of Illinois backed Donald Trump, who remains popular with those voters, while the Chicago backed Hillary Clinton, who grew up in the suburbs.

"We're just stealing the language that sanctuary cities use," explained the Effingham County's top prosecutor, Bryan Kibler, who came up with the idea.

很多州都有类似的问题，一个大的中心城市就能决定整个州的人的权利，包括宪法规定的权利。

当左右意见的差别无法调和时，每个地方都想自治，联邦 vs 州 vs 郡 vs 城市 vs 小区。民主与共和的永恒话题，有些问题不是majority rules就能解决的问题。

这就更加显得2ndA的重要。
拥枪权是公平自由的最基本保证！否则，随意来个vote就将你给办了。。。

家鸽短期内不可能。但是，虽然华人枪友大多数住在家鸽及其附近，这些偏远county通过这些法律却能够让家鸽市枪友受益：

1.  让作弊政客知道，你过分了自然有反弹。芝加哥作弊可能暂缓进一步消弱拥枪权。
2.  不反抗施暴者还以为受害者enjoy, 会更嚣张
3.  就像围棋的势，全美国是大局的话，离我们几百里的乡下是我们的子和敌人的子差别大了，
