In 2024, I was thinking - if Trump lost maybe he could come and be our governor. Wouldn't that be a hoot? .

If they wouldn't let me I wouldn't go.

Sorry if I'm drifting off-topic, but years ago they tried to pass a law where every bullet had to be engraved with a serial number. I think GW Bush shot it down. It sticks in my mind because I lost a liberal "friend" when I told him how idiotic the law would have been. He quit speaking to me over it.😭 😉

The authorities couldn't very well give him his guns back. Think about it. Then they would be responsible for anything that happened with those guns forever and ever. Would you put yourself in that position?

I ain't no poster child for CC because that's what you are if you tell people.

Whenever anyone discusses CC, I STFU and leave.

I miss it.

Don't put it past J.B. to do something, unless he really does feel challenged in the next election, and he might. He's been pushing that belly around quite a bit lately. I'm worried he could go after Glocks next.

I used to belong to the Carthage Gun Club. A friend still takes me there as a guest when I go back to visit.

Seems some folks get a strange sense of satisfaction by saying Illinois has restrictive gun laws and they would never stoop so low as to live in such a place. Jeez Louise. Nothing is perfect. You quit whining and you put on your big boy panties and make the best of it, just like anything else.

Actually, it doesn't really sound all that "easy peasy" if you ask me. Clear and Present Danger is defined by statute as a person who: (1) communicates a serious threat of physical violence against a reasonably identifiable victim or poses a clear and imminent risk of serious physical injury to himself, herself, or another person as determined by a physician, clinical psychologist, or qualified examiner; or (2) demonstrates threatening physical or verbal behavior, such as violent, suicidal, or assaultive threats, actions, or other behavior, as determined by a physician, clinical psychologist, qualified examiner, school administrator, or law enforcement official. https://isp.illinois.gov/StaticFiles/docs/FirearmsSafety/Forms/CPD Reporting handout.pdf

Chicago runs Illinois. Makes it easy to see what the Democrats had in mind when they opened the border; Increase the populations in the major metro areas in order to take over the states. When the leaves are down I can see Missouri from my back yard. If things got bad I feel I have an escape route.

It's not the gun laws that bother me so much. It's knowing that the top politician in the state and his peanut gallery despise you and see you as an enemy. That's what I find most bothersome.

It's insulting that Pritzker has the gall to say what he does and expects us to believe him.

Yes our gun laws suck pond water but it's not enough to get me to pull up stakes and move. My wife would move if I threw a fit but I won't put her through that. In life you have to learn to roll with the punches. I live in a very conservative county. I've seen kids walk into town with their shotguns for a soda.
