Americans MUST demand the immediate arrest and removal of this Mayor.
The illegal - Unconstitutional actions taken by this Mayor can NOT be tolerated under any circumstances.
She has abused her office and violated the powers of that office. No elected or appointed official any place in this country has ever been granted the power and authority to completely suspend and nullify the US Constitution.
She has over-stepped her authority and it must NOT be permitted, neither by her or by any elected official, anywhere or at any time.

Here is a prime example of why Americans MUST preserve, protect, and defend our Constitution, at any cost and by any means necessary.

This Illinois Mayor has not only apparently signed an executive order to ban the sale of fire arms and ammunition, but she has also granted herself full power and authority to confiscate anything she decides to take. Including guns, ammunition, food, water, and housing. She has apparently granted herself power and authority to act as Lord-and-master - dictator over the entire community and all it's citizens.
THIS is precisely what our US Constitution was designed to prevent. THIS type of abuse of power and authority, and the deliberate mis-applications of the ability to declare a state of emergency must never be tolerated or accepted.

This Mayor must be removed from office and arrested immediately.

Democrats: don't let a crisis go to waste...

the socialists and liberals will find many ways to DISARM US

The mayor of Champaign, Illinois has declared a town emergency over the Wuhan coronavirus that includes a potential ban on the sale of firearms and ammunition. 

According to a local report from WAND 17, Champaign Mayor Deborah Frank Feinen has issued an executive order that would give her office "extraordinary powers." She has issued the order despite the town and surrounding area not having a single case of the disease. 

"The executive order allows the city to be flexible to properly respond to the emergency needs of our community. None of the options will necessarily will be implemented but are available in order to protect the welfare and safety of our community if needed," Jeff Hamilton the City of Champaign's Communications Manger told WAND-TV.

Here is the list of other items from the declaration/executive order, which also includes the ability to ban the sale of "food, water, fuel, clothing, and/or other commodities, materials, goods, services and resources," in addition to alcohol and gasoline. Additionally, government agents or officials have the ability to seize private property and to cut off the city water supply. The mayor justifies everything "in the interest of public safety and wolf." Bolding is mine. 

After the declaration of an emergency, the Mayor may in the interest of public safety and welfare make any or all of the following orders and provide the following direction:

(1) Issue such other orders as are imminently necessary for the protection of life and property.

(7) Order the control, restriction and regulation within the City by rationing, issuing quotas, fixing or freezing prices, allocating the use, sale or distribution of food, fuel, clothing and other commodities, materials, goods or services or the necessities of life;

(8) (a) Order City employees or agents, on behalf of the City, to take possession of any real or personal property of any person, or to acquire full title or such lesser interest as may be necessary to deal with a disaster or emergency, and to take possession of and for a limited time, occupy and use any real estate to accomplish alleviation of the disaster, or the effects thereof;

(b) In the event any real or personal property is utilized by the City, the City shall be liable to the owner thereof for the reasonable value of the use or for just compensation as the case may be.

(9) Order restrictions on ingress or egress to parts of the City to limit the occupancy of any premises;

(10) To make provision for the availability and use of temporary emergency housing;

(11) Temporarily suspend, limit, cancel, convene, reschedule, postpone, continue, or relocate all meetings of the City Council, and any City committee, commission, board, authority, or other City body as deemed appropriate by the Mayor.

(19) Direct and compel the evacuation of all or part of the population from any stricken or threatened areas within the City if the mayor deems this action is necessary for the preservation of life, property, or other disaster or emergency mitigation, response or recovery and to prescribe routes, modes of transportation and destination in connection with an evacuation.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, local and federal officers confiscated firearms from civilians living in New Orleans.

"Local police officers began confiscating weapons from civilians in preparation for a forced evacuation of the last holdouts still living here, as President Bush steeled the nation for the grisly scenes of recovering the dead that will unfold in coming days," the New York Times reported in 2005. "Police officers and federal law enforcement agents scoured the city carrying assault rifles seeking residents who have holed up to avoid forcible eviction, as well as those who are still considering evacuating voluntarily to escape the city's putrid waters."

  • The recent gun ban enacted by the Governor and state counsel in Virginia was a test case. A test to see how far they could push the people before they would react and revolt.
    Since nothing really actually happened after that the Democrats have decided to take things to the next level.
    If nothing is done about this then they will simply raise it up one more notch. They will continue to push the envelope until there is either a total violent revolution or until they have succeeded in taking every weapon in the country.

    I believe it is time for the people to tell these Democrats that they will not be allowed to continue their crusade against the Constitution or against the people.

    This Mayor must be arrested and removed from office - Immediately.
