The Illinois Supreme Court has ruled that the challenge to the Cook County assault weapons ban may proceed, reversing a lower court decision.

Filed in 2007, the suit was thrown out by the circuit court at the county's request. After the plaintiffs' appeal to the appellate court, the suit was again dismissed. Now, though, the state Supreme Court has ruled that a Second Amendment challenge to bans of so-called "assault weapons" has enough merit to require a trial.

I gotta hand it to those guys for sticking in there... 2007 case, dismissed multiple times, they keep filing appeals... they're like zombies!
