  1. Today
  2. I received an email response from defense attorney Vinoo P. Varghese, and he informs me that the statement from the judge are true. Multiple times she told him that the 2A was not to be used in her court as it did not apply. So it's true. VooDoo
  3. I looked for one at IGold this year and they weren't there. If it is the shirt Jimster is talking about, it is either an ash gray or khaki shirt with the outline of ILL-ANNOY on the front with a holstered handgun over that outline. My ash gray one is toast and the khaki is still in reasonably good shape but I wanted a replacement. I was disappointed. ☹️
  4. Browning Mark III BAR. According to every shop I’ve talked to.
  5. 36.7% - 22/60 Several of those "agree/disagree" questions I answered "neither" and only got 2 of 4 points. One question - "I have a living situation that makes it uncomfortable to get firearms-related postal mail." - I answered strongly disagree as I live alone and don't have to worry about the mail. That got me ZERO points. 😡 Then, I don't have a smartphone so I can get an app for it. They didn't like that either. And I still write paper checks as I prefer that to using a credit card - zero points. This survey was meant for those 25-45 age group that only uses "plastic" on their "smartphones", etc. Screw them.
  6. How do books get treated by a couple of "bookends"?
  7. I thought there were only 3 boxes - the Ballot box, the Jury box, and the AMMO box.
  8. This message reminded me of an early version I still have.
  9. You DAMN right. When SCOTUS sees a direct refusal to accept their precedent, they need to act. I support the long standing tradition that SCOTUS operates on, but when they notice, and according to Mark Smith they do, SCOTUS needs to act. What's the point of making a final national precedence when the inferior courts clearly ignore it. They need to take a stand and allow quick Injunctions, or some other method, until the lower courts defiance stops.
  10. None of the charges were PICA specific charges. This happens all the time in Chicago as well, yet we have not seen any PICA charges as stand alone charges.
  11. Yesterday
  12. More than old enough to drive, buy alcohol, rent a car, etc. in human years if it’s what I think
  13. Never forget California and NewYork. East coast nuts, West coast nuts…. And _______ we are in the middle. 🤡
  14. Yea, it has happened a few times in madison & st clair counties since 1/1/24. I remembered a few of the articles but I believe I've seen a few other cases in the news with similar outcomes. "Because Fair did not possess a FOID card, it would follow that the weapon was not registered under the "assault weapon" ban, which barred sale or possession of specific guns, including AR-style weapons, but granted an exception for weapons registered before Jan. 1. However, he was not charged under that law. A spokesman for the Madison County State’s Attorney’s Office noted that under the law a first-time violation is a Class A misdemeanor. “Such a misdemeanor charge was not considered here, and we charged the felony offenses we felt were appropriate given the facts of the case as presented to the State’s Attorney’s Office.” Madison County State’s Attorney Tom Haine was among the majority of Illinois state’s attorney’s and county sheriffs in opposition to the ban, with challenges still working their way through the federal court system even as it takes effect. https://www.thetelegraph.com/news/article/two-face-multiple-felonies-related-altered-weapons-18599848.php The St. Clair County State’s Attorney’s Office has charged the 44-year-old with six counts of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon with body armor and one count of unlawful use of a firearm projectile. https://www.firstalert4.com/2024/03/20/with-arrest-armed-man-metro-east-huge-tragedy-was-avoided/
  15. no. But if it's the same one I'm thinking of it isn't that old.
  16. How do we know this is not a phishing scam? If you try to go to IL-RKBA.org my browser marks it as unsafe website and refuses to enter it.
  17. Am I am the only one when seeing this subject's title immediately think of an old comedy movie.
  18. You would think, but honestly, if you read enough case law, typos are a common thing... I don't know why, especially in this day and age but they still are... I personally suspect it's because your ordinary spell checker will flag so many Latin or legal quirky sayings or words that spell check is ignored and manual proof reading is not a priority...
  19. When my wife started practicing law, incorrect spelling, punctuation, or grammar in something prepared for a client could be a career-ender, and, if repeated, usually was. Standards have slipped considerably since then. SCOTUS itself still does reasonably well, at least where those areas are concerned.
  20. Look at the Rossi RM 64. I have one. Six shot 4" barrel. Nice shooter.
