The content of her character should have barred her from ever having weapons in the first place.

What about new .499 barrels marked as .499?
And ammo marked the same way?
Never mind. I see its actually .510 bullet diameter.

cwbchicago.com article from today says they're increasing the number of judges who handle the workload by 50%. 6 judges now upping it to 9. Wonder why they'd do that?

Is this from one of the PowerPoint and pdf slides?
Is that Molly without glasses?

Why no expiration date? Now they track ammo sales and try to mess you up when you don't renew on time.

Nice but I want to finally go for a walk in the woods today.

Really, what difference would it have made if they took his foid away 6 years ago when he tried to get a ccl when they first came out and he did it just like all the others do with a stolen gun bought off the street?
Example.
No foid in Florida but oh well!
- Kizer Pontoon, 28, was arrested for the 66th time on Wednesday in Sarasota, Florida
- '[Pontoon] was most recently featured in October 2019 for failure to appear, possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon, possession of marijuana, high speed vehicle pursuit while fleeing to elude, and driving while license suspended,' they wrote.

Those are sad numbers. Twelve percent of gun owners have a carry license. It's like owning cars but not having a drivers license.

Anyway, I think it's pretty much agreed that I screwed up but am I screwed for the long haul? The question is: is there a good chance an appeal will succeed? If you guys believe it won't, then I can save myself the effort. Or, what can be done to increase the odds that an appeal will be successful?
If you put forth a good effort, I think you can get this situation resolved and your guns back.
In any case, you should definitely try. At the worst, you might need to hire a lawyer to help out and at the very worst you can always move out of state if necessary.
Doesn't his "clear and present danger" thing in illinois make him prohibited in every state?

NoThere's this thing called jurisdictions. A Cook County Sheriff has no ability to serve notice or arrest outside of the jurisdiction of the office they represent. They can only retain powers while in fresh pursuit or if acting on a call for assistance from an agency with jurisdiction. Personally, I'd make a royal stink about it with local PD.
If I recall correctly, one of our members had cops from another jurisdiction show up on his door to confiscate his guns. He dialed Todd and added them the phone. When Todd was thru with them they handed the phone earlier back and slicked away.
Do you have a link to that?
No, it was a while ago and doesn't come up in a search. Maybe the guy it happened to would want to tell the story again, or not. I'll leave it up to him.
It happened to a member whose firearm had been stolen and turned up in the city. Chicago PD traced the firearm back to him and came calling with a list of other firearms he had purchased and wanted to see them.
This situation is different. Main thing is that his FOID is still valid and has not been revoked.
Thanks. I try not to miss anything around here. Did they revoke the foid in the stolen gun case?
Ok. So the cops wanted to see the other guns they knew he had to make sure they weren't missing and not reported stolen or sold illegally etc. That doesn't sound too bad. Thanks for the info.

How do you know that these guy were really deputies and not some criminals using phony uniforms and forged paperwork? Criminals could impersonate law enforcement officers and potentially confiscate guns and ammo as well as a FOID card. Criminals could probably alter a FOID card to enable them to buy guns and/or ammo.
I really cant know for sure. That same question is bothering me too. I have a video of the 20min visit. I can share it via PM if you like to see it. I live in a very decent area of DuPage county where police is present everywhere (160k population). It would be very risky for outsiders to impersonate law enforcement officers in the middle of the day next to a very busy street.
Wait...You're in DuPage?!
Total scam job. Call the...gulp...ATF...as well as ISP and report the attempted theft.
But how did he get found out as a foid card holder???
-
Also, maybe a cop ran your plate while you were out on the road somewhere and someone listening to the scanner wrote down your info when the name, address, "active ccl" was broadcast back to the cop in the car, and started the scam from there?
edit
When the ccl first came out, I listened to the chicago frequencies available online and heard this play out live more than a few times.
-
How about posting a still picture or two from the video? This sounds like a very clever/dangerous scam. Don't answer the door for anyone you don't know even if you live in Dupage County, Lake County, "my neighborhood is wonderful because it's not chicago"....etc. because everything has changed. The garbage travels anywhere they want looking for any opportunity...even a police profiling law suit.

Ok. Was reading the funny pages the other day and found some body armor website that had a list for the body armor laws in each state and had a link to the "new law" starting on 1/1/2024. Glad its cleared up.
"McCondichie was just released from prison on December 15 after serving half of a 7½-year sentence he received for possessing body armor. He has previous convictions for gun possession and aggravated battery, Srivastava said.
