The law was pushed as a response to the mass shooting that occurred at a Fourth of July Parade in Highland Park, Illinois, which left seven dead and forty-eight others wounded, as reported by the Chicago Tribune. PICA itself prohibits the manufacture, sale, and possession of over 190 different types of firearms, as well as numerous grips, stocks, and attachments. The law goes even further to ban large-capacity magazines altogether.

Judge Stephen P. McGlynn, of the South District of Illinois, said that PICA is very likely to be found unconstitutional in trial given that it is a violation of Second Amendment rights. His 29-page opinion acknowledges that the law was passed with good intent in the wake of the Fourth of July shooting in Highland Park, but said that “senseless crimes of a relative few” cannot justify restricting the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens, as reported by ABC7.
