The Illinois Attorney General’s office has apologized to a federal judge demanding answers after implying his ruling against the state’s mass transit concealed carry ban has “safety implications.” Northern District of Illinois federal Judge Iain Johnston ruled the Second Amendment is violated by the state’s prohibition of people carrying concealed firearms on mass transit. The state appealed and in a motion said the “the potential safety implications of the Court’s order are highlighted by a recent mass shooting on the CTAs Blue Line, in which four people were murdered with firearms three days after the Court’s order was entered.” Johnston demanded whoever wrote that to answer questions during a hearing scheduled Wednesday.
