State Bill Would Supersede Local Gun Laws
Illinois lawmakers are considering a measure that would offer a defense to gun-owners charged with breaking local gun laws during a shooting.
The bill would allow the legal argument that it is O.K. to violate local gun restrictions to shoot someone in self-defense.
The measure was approved by a House committee today and now goes to the House floor. It is similar to a bill approved earlier by a Senate committee.
