I currently have a CCL. I did some research and it appears that simply filing for and getting approved for SSID is not grounds to revoke your FOID or CCL.

-I am not adjudicated a mental defective by a court or anyone at all. 

-I don't have an intellectual disability.
-Obviously no in-patient hospital stays
-Not a danger to myself or others (clear and present danger)

So, just to check with you folks, especially @Molly B., would it be safe to say that getting disability benefits for a mental health condition is not, on its own, grounds for FOID/CCL revocation? 

For what it's worth:  It's for depression and ADHD. Not psychosis, bipolar disorder, etc. 

Thank you. 

Anybody else seeing these in their county?

A concealed carry holder pulled a gun on children outside a Chicago elementary school and threatened to "shoot this b**** up" because she thought one of the students had hit her son, who also attends the school, prosecutors said.

Kenosha Willis, 39, allegedly confronted kids outside O'Keeffe School of Excellence, 6940 South Merrill Avenue, in South Shore on the afternoon of May 6.

Prosecutors said Willis pulled a black handgun from her purse and pointed it at two children while making threats. Willis is specifically accused of pointing the firearm at a 9-year-old boy's head, according to a CPD report.

One of the children called 911 as Willis walked away. A school security guard also encountered a group of children running from the area who reported that a woman had a gun, prosecutors said.

Willis allegedly approached the guard and began making additional threats about shooting the school and students.

"They don't know who they messing with," Willis allegedly said. "I'll shoot this b**** up."

As Willis left the scene, the guard flagged down a Chicago police officer, who stopped Willis in her vehicle and found a firearm in her purse, prosecutors said. During her detention hearing, Judge Luciano Panici Jr. ordered her detained.

She is charged with making a threat to a person at a school, four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated unlawful possession of a firearm, and violating the Illinois concealed carry act.

As a kid I’d never think anyone would carry a weapon during Church, but sadly this isn’t that world. And I have zero issue with doing so on a religious level, but that is probably not a discussion needed here. 
 

Thanks for any thoughts on this.

The 33-year-old concealed carry license holder called 911 at 1:24 a.m. and told dispatchers he had shot an intruder inside his home in the 2200 block of East 103rd Street and had already begun performing CPR on the man, who had suffered a gunshot wound to the chest. His home is across the street from the South Chicago (4th) District station.

Officers arrived and took over lifesaving measures, but the intruder, who remained a "John Doe" as of Monday evening, was pronounced dead at 1:43 a.m.

According to a CPD statement, the resident told investigators the intruder charged toward him, prompting him to fire his weapon in self-defense. Detectives are investigating the shooting.

A crew of armed robbers that Chicago police have linked to at least two other holdups this month surrounded a man near the Magnificent Mile on Monday afternoon, taking his valuables and a bag containing firearms before fleeing in a luxury SUV.

The robbery happened around 4:40 p.m. in the 100 block of East Chestnut Street. Police say a 64-year-old man had just stepped out of his vehicle when a black SUV, possibly a Maserati, rolled up with four males inside. Three of them got out, displayed rifles and handguns, and stripped the man of his wallet, a high-end watch, and the bag with the firearms, according to a preliminary report.

Qwentin Howard, a registered gun owner who holds both a Firearm Owner's Identification (FOID) card and a concealed carry license, alleges in a federal lawsuit that Officers Julian Irving and Sarah Abuosba pulled him over and placed his weapon in his trunk during the stop. Howard claims two bullets were missing when he retrieved the gun from his trunk after the stop.

He then drove to the Wentworth (2nd) District station, 5101 South Wentworth Avenue, to file a report about the missing ammunition. ...

Howard alleges that when he arrived at the station, he met with Irving and Abuosba, along with their supervisor, Officer John Sanders, and informed them he would be recording the interaction to protect himself. Sanders then allegedly ordered Howard to produce a physical FOID card, despite Howard having already shown Irving an electronic version during the traffic stop earlier that day.

When Howard insisted that an electronic card was legally sufficient, as it is under Illinois law, Sanders allegedly told him, "Well, you have a problem now because you're accusing my officers of stealing your bullets."

Howard alleges he apologized if he was mistaken, explaining he simply did not want any bullets linked to him turning up later. Sanders allegedly ordered Irving to detain Howard. Howard was handcuffed and arrested. Abuosba told Howard he was being arrested because he "wanted to escalate the issue and make it bigger than it had to be," the lawsuit claims.

Howard was charged with unlawful use of a weapon for allegedly failing to carry a physical FOID card. The charges were later dismissed, according to the lawsuit.

Howard's suit alleges First Amendment retaliation, malicious prosecution, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. He contends the arrest was punishment for exercising his constitutional right to petition the government by trying to file a police report.

U.S. District Judge Manish Shah ruled this month that Howard's retaliation and malicious prosecution claims may proceed. The judge found it plausible that the officers lacked probable cause to arrest Howard, noting that Irving had already seen Howard's electronic FOID card during the traffic stop and that Illinois law explicitly permits electronic FOID cards. The judge dismissed the intentional infliction of emotional distress claim, finding that while the alleged conduct may have been improper or illegal, it did not rise to the legal threshold of "extreme and outrageous."

If it helps at all, I am not at all a supporter of all this regulation. 

To be honest, the venue I refer to above, in Wisconsin, had the metal detectors turned off, but I didn't know that. My hesitation in walking through the detector is what made the security staff focus on me, and when I was questioned, I did not deny that I was armed. My mistake might have been more consequential had it occurred in Illinois.
