Deerfield Village in the suburbs of Chicago has placed a ban on many guns and magazines.
>Village trustees voted unanimously in favor of a complete ban on semi-automatic rifles, pistols and shotguns with certain features. The new ordinance also bans magazines containing more than 10 rounds of ammunition
>Law enforcement and retired law enforcement are exempt from the ban.
>Those who keep the affected firearms could be fined up to $1,000 a day
Some local, older residents protested the ban. Not like it did anything.
>“There were a lot of emotional arguments and not a lot based on fact,” said Daniel Easterday. “Deerfield is a very crime free community, and I don’t see how this is going to make it any more crime free.”

This seems like some areas are now moving forward on the small scale seizing guns. Is this the new strategy? This is not the first municipality to pull this stunt in Illinois.
