I know two county board members in Jasper county (probably know most of them), but the two that I know are good for nothing idiots (one is my uncle).  Knowing that county, nothing will probably come about, but I hope I am proven wrong..

When & Where are some of these county board meetings? I'd like to attend one or two to see how the resolution is presented and the debate/vote process before I jump in to St. Clair county!  

Though I have written both the board and my board representative about this issue, I have not heard back anything.  

Thanks!

ISRA has their range in Kankakee Co., and their HQ in Livingston CO.  Are they up for this?  I live in Iroquois Co. If there is a contact for here, let me know and I will call them. Would be great to get some Northern counties .

I handed the resolution over to my board member in Montgomery County. He will take it to the board tomorrow. I will let you know what happens. Won't get to a vote until next month.
Shouldn't Montgomery county be added to the Proposed list?

That map reminds you of how small Cook really is compared to the rest of the state yet all the BS that comes out of there effects the rest of Illinois. I'm from DuPage and as you can see I am surrounded by Cook. Has anyone thought about proposing this to DuPage? We need more counties in the Northern area!

Maybe it will take more than one letter.  Take a look at the DuPage county website, they've got a program called, ProtectDuPage, the motto is "Protect Your Family First", and "Homeland Security Begins at Home"..  Protect your family with what??  Good intentions??  A nice corner to cower in??   Soccer Balls??  Surely if a few of the "nearly one million people" that live in DuPage County wrote letters and gained some signatures on a petition, you could tie that program to the 2nd amendment rights that you don't have now and allow them to see how hollow that admonition is!!  Sorry, probably jumping in here where I shouldn't, but I thought the ProtectDuPage program was interesting.

All the counties south of I80 are gonna be relatively easy, the rest will take a little longer!!  

I gotta quit this, need to do something to earn money to buy food, gas and bullets!!
