Lou Posted February 19, 2015 at 07:57 AM Share Posted February 19, 2015 at 07:57 AM II am not thrilled to see so many new people here getting their permits. There are a lot of dedicated people here that worked very hard to make that happen. One small thing you can do is to become a supporting member. Lease consider it.

old1free Posted February 19, 2015 at 11:36 AM Share Posted February 19, 2015 at 11:36 AM That is pretty harsh, considering that I didn't even now this sight existed until I started taking my CC course. I didn't know anything about you or what work you have done. I'm sure that a lot of others were in the dark too about your endeavors. You SHOULD be thrilled that so many people ARE receiving their permits. As far as becoming a supporting member, no problem. I never noticed on the home page anything special about becoming a supporting member. Maybe you should make it more eye catching on your site. I thank you for all the work that you have all done and I will offer my donation immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwc Posted February 19, 2015 at 12:01 PM Share Posted February 19, 2015 at 12:01 PM I suspect that Lou typed "not" by accident... of course we're all VERY thrilled to see so many new licensees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molly B. Posted February 19, 2015 at 02:46 PM Share Posted February 19, 2015 at 02:46 PM Absolutely a typo for Lou. Probably using his smart phone while on the beach. He'll be so embarrassed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spec5 Posted February 20, 2015 at 04:35 AM Share Posted February 20, 2015 at 04:35 AM (edited) Absolutely a typo for Lou. Probably using his smart phone while on the beach. He'll be so embarrassed!!He might be more embarrassed if he accidently posts the selfies that he took while on the beach. At "lease" I think he would.

old1free Posted February 20, 2015 at 06:38 AM Share Posted February 20, 2015 at 06:38 AM Seriously though, I would like to hear more about all the work you guys have done to help us all get our licenses. When did you start? What actions did you take with the government? Do you hold any meetings people can attend? What is your history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwc Posted February 20, 2015 at 11:32 AM Share Posted February 20, 2015 at 11:32 AM (edited) old1free, If you like to listen to podcasts, episode #25 of "2A Today" has a great interview with Illinois Carry's spokesperson, Valinda Rowe, where she covers a lot of the history and actions that led us to where we are today. http://s52.podbean.com/pb/168586db8e6b89b8c2faf6a7af9ab957/54e71a7d/data2/blogs32/604585/uploads/2ATodayep25.mp3 Edited February 20, 2015 at 11:46 AM by kwc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tvandermyde Posted February 20, 2015 at 03:34 PM Share Posted February 20, 2015 at 03:34 PM Old1free Some have said there is a YouTube video of me going at it with a certain state rep if some one knows of that link maybe they can post it and u just might see some of the hostility we went up against Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old1free Posted February 20, 2015 at 06:04 PM Share Posted February 20, 2015 at 06:04 PM My license was in the mail today!... 95 days without prints. Thanks kwc. Listened to it. I know that IL has been a very difficult fight. I appreciate everyone who fought the battles. Anyone pushing for open carry? If I can help in any way, let me know. We almost moved to IN, and still may. hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaystrm Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:39 AM Share Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:39 AM Thanks for posting that video. Although when I heard the comment about people with carry permits aren't gonna be the ones out, you know, shooting out streetlights, my Mt. dew was all over the desk.

Mr. Fife Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:46 AM Share Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:46 AM (edited) Thanks for posting that video. I think it would have been just as good without the added subtitles, but I tried to ignore those anyway. The nice part is that after the video, another video cues up, and then another after that. It's like re-living the last few years all in one evening. It brings back memories. Good times!

tom28 Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:54 AM Share Posted February 21, 2015 at 03:54 AM The streetlight comment had me laughing out loud. That was the best part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRonin70 Posted February 21, 2015 at 04:39 AM Share Posted February 21, 2015 at 04:39 AM I remember when this was going on, and I recall thinking, "Dayum, I have never seen arrogant legislators handed their @sses so thoroughly and completely." I've seen many government hearings over the years as a reporter, and this was by far the most ruthless evisceration of foolish bureaucracy that I know of.

brianj - now in Kansas Posted February 24, 2015 at 07:13 PM Share Posted February 24, 2015 at 07:13 PM Man. I forgot how much fun it was watching Todd and Drury locking horns. It's also interesting watching that video now with the benefit of hindsight. We won some of those points, and we lost some. Need to put that on my playlist in YouTube.
