”There is a remote possibility that the veto will not be over-ridden, and Illinois AG immediately appeals to SCOTUS.”
I cannot imagine that happening since they have already taken this before SCOTUS - the McDonald case - which is what got them to where they are.
Their only options are to 1) enact a law that will pass the muster of the outcome from McDonald or 2) let the time expire and have constitutional carry - until each locality makes up their own version of a carry law which passes muster from McDonald.
Well, there is a very slim chance that they could ask for more time again - but after being given 180 days, then an additional 30 days, I highly doubt the court will let them kick the can even further down the road. I believe Elvis said it best - "It's now or never!"
