  1. I appreciate the intent of the bill as recognition is much better than having to apply for an IL permit, but I do find it odd that it doesn't define what makes a state's training similar to Illinois so that other states can be included, nor does it contemplate the enumerated states that are currently similar might change their laws and become dissimilar. If that's all intentional, well, could I ask that you add Kansas to the list?
  2. It is my impression that the courts generally, other than the 7th, start out with the notion that the core 2A right is only for the home, and therefore they don't have to entertain strict scrutiny and they end up at renamed rational basis. If that incorrect reading of Heller gets cleared up by SCOTUS (making the core right of self defense with 2A more clear and stating its geographic scope--everywhere with allowance for some sensitive places) it would certainly help this problem. Adding smackdown for the openly recalcitrant courts and some bright lines for the lower courts in general would also help.
