bradford Posted October 25, 2011 at 07:19 PM Share Posted October 25, 2011 at 07:19 PM Yikes. The only way I'd venture to that 'hood is if CCW were already legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted October 25, 2011 at 08:06 PM Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 at 08:06 PM Yikes. The only way I'd venture to that 'hood is if CCW were already legal.And that is why it is so important that we present the issue of Right to Carry to the citizens in this district. Many of our members live there and this is their home. They want to make it a safer place to liveand work. Fortunately they are willing to take a stand and they have friends willing to go into 'the belly ofthe beast' and fight this battle by their side. No one said standing up for what is right would always be easy or safe. We go where duty calls and that is tostand at the side of our brothers and sisters.

Dr. G Posted November 1, 2011 at 05:40 PM Share Posted November 1, 2011 at 05:40 PM If I can walk around the neighborhood from 6:30 to 9:00 pm on Halloween night passing out flyers, surely you can park in the lot right next to the restuarant, listen to some good info, and eat some good food. If the only freedom we want, is whatever we don't have to fight for, we don't really want very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikew Posted November 4, 2011 at 09:37 PM Share Posted November 4, 2011 at 09:37 PM It's OK to preach to the choir, but to have the same choir members all the time [time after time] sort of defeats the purpose. That being said, the crowd there was smaller than I would have liked, but there were some new faces in the audience. Illinois State Rep Mary Flowers was there, and she got to hear from some of her constituents, as well as some other motivated people. She was given the floor to have the opportunity to express/explain herself. What she had to say was at times interesting if not satisfactory.

Howard Roark Posted November 5, 2011 at 03:35 AM Share Posted November 5, 2011 at 03:35 AM I just couldn't make this one, although I've been to several others. For people who have not participated, I highly recommend it. You know you're doing something important when you show up and speak at one of these events.

Drylok Posted November 8, 2011 at 06:58 AM Share Posted November 8, 2011 at 06:58 AM Isn't Flowers the one who said during the floor debate that she didn't support it because black males would be wrongfully denied permits or some such nonsense? To me that says I don't support ccw because guns are evil but I had to come up with something to do with race because that's all I ever do.

Drylok Posted November 8, 2011 at 09:50 AM Share Posted November 8, 2011 at 09:50 AM Oh I promise it's true what she said, we were watching it from here. I just can't remember if it was actually the day of the debate or when. We were like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xwing Posted November 8, 2011 at 02:49 PM Share Posted November 8, 2011 at 02:49 PM What she had to say was at times interesting if not satisfactory. What did she say? I assume it was "CCW is racist" or some similar garbage, even though it is the exact opposite of the truth. Gun laws have been racist, and overturning them is a great equalizer.

Flowers voted against adding random drug testing to the link card program because "it was racist." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
