  1. I'm with you, I think 99% of FOID holders give a FF the other 1% need a pill or something.
  2. CHICAGO — A Cook County judge rejected prosecutors’ requests to detain a trucker accused of shooting up another vehicle during a road rage incident on a suburban Chicago expressway this week. Illinois State Police troopers responded to calls of shots fired on northbound Interstate 55 near 1st Avenue in southwest suburban Summit around 1:38 p.m. on Tuesday, the agency said on Facebook. They located a driver who told them that a trucker shot at him during a road rage incident, according to state police. While the man was not injured, bullets did strike his vehicle. The truck driver, identified by ISP as 39-year-old Jose Gonzalez of Chicago, was arrested at the scene. He is charged with aggravated discharge of a firearm. During a detention hearing on Thursday, prosecutors asked Judge Linzey Jones to detain Gonzalez before trial as both a safety threat and a flight risk, according to clerk of court records. “Defendant pointed a firearm at victim and shot at the victim and struck victim’s vehicle during a road rage incident,” an assistant state’s attorney wrote in a pretrial detention petition. “Weapon was recovered and gunshot is visible on victim’s vehicle.” Jones rejected both requests, setting Gonzalez free with standard instructions to stay in the state, show up in court, and refrain from contacting the alleged victim. ISP did not name Jones or reveal that prosecutors asked him to detain Gonzalez. Instead, the agency noted in its Facebook post that “Gonzalez was released pursuant to the provisions in the Pretrial Fairness Act.”
  3. I didn't think police we exempt for their personal firearms. I know a lot of police and every one of them owns at least 1 personal item that fits this nonsense.
  4. What's your letter count, I decided this route is useless after two, oh wait, three 😮
  5. Todd might want to talk to him about his latest post yesterday , he's off by a couple zero's 1.618 / 2,400,000 = .0006741 in my calculator. "With a total of 1,618 individuals complying two weeks in, that would be about 0.07% of the 2.4 million FOID card holders in the state." https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_771bf3dc-6eb1-11ee-a763-f76b309d3dd5.html
  6. Excellent, I laughed my .. off when I saw that, I was prepared and drinking scotch at the time, I however switched from cigar's to a pipe due to the taxes. If you see some crazy Catholic wearing a cowboy hat, smoking a pipe, and driving a truck... That would be me. When asked by a lawyer, unfortunately too many times, my answer is almost always "I don't recall". Basically the "Hillary" defense.
  7. Wow I somewhat understand quite a few languages, kind of have to but Russian is just ... up. I guess some of the clanging garbage can lids I don't understand either.
  8. CHICAGO — A Venezuelan migrant who allegedly had a stolen firearm in a vehicle during a traffic stop in downtown Chicago failed to appear for his first court date this week, records show. Judge Robert Kuzas released Jose Aponte Garcia on September 28, the day after police arrested the 24-year-old near Millennium Park, and told him to return for a hearing on Wednesday, according to court clerk files. But Garcia didn’t show up, so Kuzas put out a warrant for his arrest. The felony weapons charge stems from a traffic stop in the 200 block of North Lower Columbus Drive around 12:50 p.m. on September 27. I'm feeling safer everyday.
  9. Independents my a... all Democrats a RINO and a open seat, all sounds fair in Illinois.
  10. "For" isn't reported on a 4473. There's not even confirmation that you completed the purchase without them coming out to inspect the FFLs book.
  11. All I get is canned response letters back. Where do you go next? Can we start a petition to recall the AG?
  12. I honestly don't believe this could pass the "vagueness doctrine" is we could find an honest judge.
  13. I can calculate when they will close the border. What's the population of Venezuela? Of and last real estimate was ~32 million 1 in every 10 is an illegal. Yale study
  14. It would be nice if I could believe the constitution didn't live under the court of public opinion that is however in the end who we elect to appoint them. Grammatically challenged today. 😮
  15. I'm not sure Newsome could win another recall, I'd not put a lot of bets on anyone he appoints either. Of course everyone I know has left the state not sure if you can still vote like in Illinois.
  16. I keep absolutely no records other than what I'm required to and those INSTANTLY hit the fire after 10 years.
  17. I was just saying from time of fertilization to until the umbilical cord is cut, extremes never compromise. I may lean very strongly one way but if we can find a happy middle without fighting about it constantly. Illinois had a extreme position on concealed carry and got bi...slapped and probably will again, I prefer it that way I just wouldn't push the full-auto (right yet).
