As for coming close to passing . . . well only time will tell. I think the sooner it comes to a vote the closer it will be to passing but the longer into the future it is extended the less likely it will be to pass. Simply put, if they can get a vote before people mobilize against it then I think it might actually happen. But if people 'downstate' mobilize then they will stop it, or at least dillute it. Realize that parts of Illinois already have bans on "assault weapons" as well as on magazines over 10 rounds. So its not out of the question to see this bill pass.
