  1. So, buried in the budget shell bill at 3 am at the end of the session? Got it!
  2. Math says that works out to just over 5555 creditable gun safe purchases a year over those three years. 5M / 3 = 1.67M / 300 = 5555.56 The 5.56 is a nice touch.
  3. Deadlines, shmeadlines. I assume they will try to pass RIFL as an amendment to a shell bill in the dead of night at the end of the session.
  4. One question to ask a gun owner, regardless of political affiliation: Would you be willing to surrender your firearms if your elected officials did everything else they promised and then ordered you to turn your guns in? There should only be two possible answers - YES or NO. "That'll never happen" or "That's not nuanced enough" or some other hemming and hawing over the answer gets us where we are today. None of this is going to fix Schoenthal v Raoul, so maybe we need to relocate our crushed hopes and dreams to a back room thread.
  5. I was pondering this. Let's assume a traditional Chicago-area liberal came out and said "I'm pro 2A", but really meant it in the way that we believe it, would that person have a chance of getting elected? My fear is that such a person would say all the right things and then just toe the party line once in office.
  6. My apologies for adding a smidge of clutter to this thread, so feel free to delete this once it's read... Some of the links in the posts at the top are broken because they point to the ILGA beta site. HB 3320 RIFL Act was one of them.
  7. April Fool's, you're under arrest!
  8. 03/23/2026 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of 3/27/2026. 12 conferences remaining until it gets denied.
  9. People on Twitter are saying SCOTUS will strike it down. GFL.
  10. Could two unfired cartridges, given enough malicious motivation on the part of the CPD, have been used against Howard? Throw on enough tin foil, and the narrative "Fingerprints on two shell casings recovered from the scene linked the shooting to Howard..." might be a future reality.
  11. 12 or 13 to go until they deny cert at the end of the term. Still want more input from the various circuit courts.
  12. We have no idea what the warrant was actually for, though, just that he was arrested and then released at 2:40 pm today (per inmate search) after being charged. If they thought the house was going to be full of guns and drugs, but all they had was the ammo, then these charges are meant to be leverage to get him to talk. His court hearing is on March 5. Maybe they'll drum up more charges in the meantime.
  13. LITH = LARP in the Hills
