lockman Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:39 PM Share Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:39 PM Now back to the divisive issues: constitutional carry, open carry, FOID repeal and we can even throw in a few thread derailing comments about same sex marriage or abortion!

Omega Man Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:40 PM Share Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:40 PM O.K. Sounds good. Will stand down. Not to question Todd, but can he trust whoever is telling him a bill will be introduced next spring that is good for both parties? From past, previous, and especially now, you might say I'm a little "gun shy" in trusting these representatives of ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauserme Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:41 PM Share Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:41 PM This sounds like capitulation. Looks like we are giving up that one inch or more we said we will never let go of. These bills sought to provide a method of relief for LEO's who had some difficulties. If we can broaden that relief to everyone, without creating a special class, that won't be capitulation. With input from Todd some of the other pitfalls in the wording can be avoided and that will be a win for all FOID card holders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vezpa Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:43 PM Share Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:43 PM Relax but be vigilant. This was a test. They will see how those bills can be changed and modify them in such a way as they seem more logical and give them a better shot as passing. They will get a try with their new crew of legislatures next month. Sorry but I've been to the show before and used to these games and tactics. Thank You to Todd and everyone else that made this happen. If we fought every junk bill in Illinois like this and in greater numbers we could make strides to take our state back.

Vaden Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:44 PM Share Posted January 6, 2013 at 10:44 PM After all this underhandedness by the ILGA, I wont believe anything until I see it. They admitted to wanting to hurt law abiding gun owners and gutted bills that our reps time and tax dollars went into putting together and pushing for decent purposes. I trust them as far as I can throw the state capitol. I trust in Todd but trusting the ILGA is downright ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
