45superman Posted January 29, 2011 at 10:15 PM Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 at 10:15 PM I decided to go back and add the bill's sponsor to each listing, but forgot that putting the "R" (for Republican) in parentheses would automatically display the symbol for "Registered Trademark."

mstrat Posted January 30, 2011 at 07:07 AM Share Posted January 30, 2011 at 07:07 AM How the $* did I miss that one?! Thanks, Hatchet, and sorry, everyone, that I dropped the ball on that. I'll go through the Senate bills again, to make sure I didn't miss any others I'm responsible for. I'm also flagging bills on my site, and periodically cross-checking against this list. So between all of us, I'm sure we'll get catch them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samy12386 Posted January 31, 2011 at 02:21 AM Share Posted January 31, 2011 at 02:21 AM I'm still somewhat new to this forum so pardon my ignorance but is this saying there will be a bill this year to have CC in Il? A few years back when I was living in Il I never followed politics much (I was 18 years old had other "important" things on my mind) but I'll be back for good this time next year. Keep up the fight and let me know what I can do to help, this forum has been a great help over the past few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the fight and let me know what I can do to help, this forum has been a great help over the past few months. Actually, there have been bills for "CC" (we like to call it Right To Carry or RTC) in IL for several years. In the past there has never been enough support to get it debated or voted on. This year, with two Supreme Court rulings, several pending court cases, an election and a lot of effort by everyone involved, we think we have a shot at getting a vote on it this year. Stick around this forum. Legislative session starts next week. As bills come up that need our support or opposition, there will be "calls to action" posted here. Phone calls and faxes to selected legislators let them know our feelings on pending legislation. Welcome to Illinois Carry, we're glad to have you here.

lockman Posted January 31, 2011 at 01:30 PM Share Posted January 31, 2011 at 01:30 PM The Police could not charge the guards with UUW (Nor should they have), but the police can arrest for unlicenced operations under 225 ILCS, but this is one area of law the police generally avoid because they are not framiliar or instructed about them.

mauserme Posted January 31, 2011 at 08:20 PM Share Posted January 31, 2011 at 08:20 PM HB401 through HB600 are all shell bills. HB430 - HB432 inclusive touch on the Peace Officer Fire Investigation act which, in part, authorizes fire investigators to "carry weapon(s) as may be necessary". These will probably amount to nothing from a Right to Carry point of view but seemed worth mentioning. HB455 - HB456 inclusive amends the Lobbyist Registration Act. If anyone here knows any lobbyists they might want to watch these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have included some bills that don't seem to have anything to do with guns, but because they deal with sections of Illinois law that affect us (430, 520, 525, and 720), and since they were introduced by Madigan, I included them anyway.

45superman Posted February 9, 2011 at 04:43 PM Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 at 04:43 PM Good work, Mstrat, thanks. Got 'em listed. I categorzied HB 1162 as "good," because it seems to me that the Criminal Code on transporting firearms is actually less restrictive than the Wildlife Code.

mstrat Posted February 9, 2011 at 05:30 PM Share Posted February 9, 2011 at 05:30 PM Just to be clear - I haven't been going through all the bills (just looking at an auto-generated list). So it's quite possible some fell through the cracks. So it wasn't dropping the ball Drylok. These were only just filed today or yesterday... so you, me and other volunteers still need to go through our blocks bill-by-bill to be certain. I was just posting the auto-detected ones to make peoples lives easier, but I can refrain from doing that; I don't want to step on anyone's toes or cause any confusion.

I think what you're doing is very helpful, and greatly appreciate it. And Drylok, I want to echo what Mstrat said--when the General Assembly goes days (weeks, sometimes) without posting any new bills, and then post many hundreds in one day, it's not at all easy to keep up, so don't beat yourself up over not having caught those. Another thing Mstrat is 100% right about is the need to go through the bills "by hand," even after we've seen the ones from the automatically generated list. It's a pretty slick algorithm, but there's no substitute for human eyes on the bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only fair that the gangbangers pay a little extra when they buy their ammo down at the Walmart so that the hospitals are better prepared to deal with the people they shoot that evening!! "High Crime Trauma Center Grant Fund" Let the law abiding gun owners and sportsmen of the state pay to patch up the criminals, 'bangers and innocents that are shot in the City. Thought the cameras that are in the news right now were supposed to stop that!! Oh, yeah. They don't stop crime, just make it easier to pick up those responsible.
