Illinois lawmakers have introduced a bill that will make critics legal to those experiencing mental health episodes to attack police officers.
Democrat Lisa Davis, a lawyer at the Cook County Civil Service Office's Law Office, introduced House Bill 3458 in February.
Under the terms of the bill, the bill (provisions) that when individual abused people are peace officers, officers interact with people who believe that reasonable officers have episodes of mental health, and when officers respond to incidents in which officers interact with people who interact with documented people, it is a defense that exacerbates the battery.”

The bill has been co-sponsored by two co-sponsors, Rep. Marcus Evans and Kelly Cassidy.
Currently, Illinois people can be charged with aggravated battery if they attack a peace officer, community policing volunteer, firefighter, civil security guard, correctional facility employee, or individuals who know they are sexually dangerous or employees of the Department of Human Services that oversee or control sexual violence.

“If this is past, mental illness will be an excuse to attack and beat police officers,” the blog says. “In fact, are there thousands of people who suddenly have doctor memos allowing them to attack police?”
Davis' proposal would legalize attacks on peace officers. Other first responders, such as firefighters, are spared, as reported by CWB Chicago.
The bill has been referred to the Illinois Legislature Rules Committee, where unpopular laws die, the news report says.
