Do you think he will get with the program? i think he might feel bound by his own stupidity in Friedman. He seems very fond of it.
Either way, with the DOJ taking such an active interest in this case it would seem the 7th Circuit would have a harder time just sitting on it.

Hold off on their ruling until SCOTUS changes
With three and a half more years of Trump, and then hopefully eight more of JD Vance.......it'd be a long wait.

Bevis is in the Northern District it is not done at the District Court yet as they are still in the motions/discovery phase.
Viramontes v. Cook County is also from the Northern District and had oral arguments heard by a 7th Circuit panel Nov 12, 2024. I'm not holding my breath waiting for the opinion to come anytime soon, but it is further along than the Barnett case. which has not yet had oral arguments heard.
Thanks. If SCOTUS is waiting for the 7th Circuit to give them something to work with, it might be a long wait.

Barnett is a completed case at the district level. That happened last fall.
I set the over/under on 7th sitting on it at 2 years (with the clock starting when they stayed the decision out of the Southern District of Illinois last fall).
Who wants the under?
Isn't there another case, perhaps in the Northern District of IL? With a less than 2A friendly judge?

I agree, I believe that want Illinois.
Which leads to the natural question: how long will the 7th Circuit sit on this...once it's past the district level? Which will be....when?

Denied.
"Opinions from other Courts of Appeals should assist this Court’s ultimate decisionmaking on the AR–15 issue. Additional petitions for certiorari will likely be before this Court shortly and, in my view, this Court should and presumably will address the AR–15 issue soon, in the next Term or two."
It sounds like Kavanaugh wants to rule for us (or why comment?), but can't quite do it yet. Haven't the 1st and 4th Circuits already refused to rule according to SCOTUS precedent? It would seem that would "assist" the Court sufficiently.
Here's the the SCOTUS site's link to the order. Scroll down to page 18 to start reading. Not surprisingly, Justice Thomas had something to say as well.

It's odd that they don't get that this is what tyranny looks like.
It's more likely that they don't care.

Rep. DeLuca asks the sponsor for clarity on what changes for concealed carry licensees in a car. This is interesting, coming from a fellow Democrat.
He continues with questions about a carry gun in the owners house, pointing out that you "can go to sleep with a firearm in your pocket", and that is sufficient under this bill.
She will get back to him on that.
She has to "get back to him"? It's her bill, right?

Rep. Fritts asks when the 48 hour lost or stolen reporting requirement starts. The answer is when the owner becomes aware that the forearm is lost or stolen. Mr. Fritts wonders if, while he is in Springfield, a neighbor advises him that his house has been broken in to. The tier starts then, she says, to which he asks how he an make such report when he doesn't have serial numbers memorized. Ms. Hirschauer said previously that serial numbers are required in the report. He also points out that many people winter in Floriida.
Starts then? How can a person report something "lost or stolen" until they can verify that it has been "lost or stolen"?

I'll be in recess for a while myself.
Is that allowed? 😎

What is to keep a person from going to the ISP Dashboard, and printing the page with their FOID and CCL (if applicable) information? It will have the card number and expiration date(s). Probably not a bad thing to have in one's files in any event.

......As the sponsor, Chair Hirschauer begins subject matter on SB8 Safe Gun Storage. To her, it is "common sense".
I find that unpersuasive.

Done, and best wishes.

Both done.
If/when you get discouraged and think, "What's the point?"...just consider: that's what our friends across the aisle want you to think.
Thanks for all your work Mauser. You and everyone at Illinois Carry.

I had been speculating, knowing my thoughts are meaningless, that Thomas and / or Alito were drafting a dissent (or whatever the proper word is for this scenario) but I wouldn't think it would take them this long. Hopefully, they are just waiting for some chip to fall real soon to take this on.

No. It doesn’t matter. At all. Anti-gun democrats will advance the bill regardless. They don’t care that people don’t want it
They don't care what the Constitution says, why would they care about their constituents?

As the Senate stands, and likely will continue to....It'd never get the 60 votes to invoke cloture anyway.

The House is coming to order. Representative Bob "It's a Lie" Morgan is in the Chair.
104 members are present.
He's not only in the Chair. He's in the news as well.

Done, and "thanks" Mauser.
And "thanks" to Sound Guy for mentioning "all 5". I would have looked right past that 3/13 hearing.

Ballots received. Both have been both voted, and will be mailed tomorrow.
Thanks Todd. Here's wishing you, and the entire slate, the best.

I am a NRA Life Member. My magazine subscriptions are “electronic” so I have received my ballots separately via US Mail.
Has anyone received their ballot yet? Again, a separate ballot, not with the magazine.
Also, what are the ballot deadline dates?
No ballot yet here. But it recently took something a doc's office mailed my wife about twelve days to go less than fifty miles.
