Justice Department Considering Ban on Trans People Owning Firearms
Tip replied to mauserme's topic in National Politics
This is what happens when “feelings” or “thoughts” are allowed to overrule actual facts. -
Know the Law, because Cook County Sheriff's Office doesn't

Thought it was revoked, not suspended. Those are two different things. Generally to obtain a DL in another state your license must be clear (i.e.not suspended or revoked) and must be “surrendered” (often just defaced to indicate it’s no longer valid). States who participate in the Drivers License Compact share data and check that database. Wisconsin is one of a few states that DO NOT participate in DLC although they may use other means to check if you are suspended elsewhere. -

DL does not establish residence. He could have had it inside the vehicle on his waistband only if he was indeed a Wisconsin resident, if he is indeed an Illinois resident he’d need an Illinois CCL. Illinois car, suspended Illinois license, Wisconsin DL, Wisconsin CCL — I agree with MAB - there is sufficient questions raised to warrant an arrest and charges and let the courts do their job of sorting it out. If the court (or potentially the DA) determines Wisconsin residence - charges should be summarily dismissed. -

Ya know…. Maybe we ought to require LEO’s to take CCL classes - that way we’d know they were at least exposed to what the CCL law says. Exempting them from them serves no useful purpose…. -
Admittedly I haven’t waded through all the videos, clickbait videos, articles and stories but I have perused a few. I have a simple question: Can the conditions be created to cause the misfire without pulling or pre-staging the trigger?

Why stop here, are they going to mandate locks on kitchen cabinets where sharp knives are stored? How about locking gas cans for your mower, or locking storage containers for fertilizer? If it’s truly “For the Kids” then they’ll need to mandate locking storage for all cleaning supplies - oh my gawd you have TidePods!!! You know, all of this boils down to a single thing - education. Maybe we ought to spend the money on mandatory gun safety courses in, say, 1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th grades….. maybe household chemicals in 2nd…, and sharp objects in 3rd…. Mandating behavior has apparently become the new dream of Illinois democrats politicians - remember COVID???

That’s where you are completely wrong. There is a another camp of firearms carriers — those who believe the carrying of firearms, regardless of method, is protected by the US Constitution. -
Perhaps the fact that one of the cases that helped sound the death toll on prohibiting CC in Illinois involved an attack in a church office…..

We looked exhaustively for the equipment that was allegedly missing and did not locate any. We can only conclude that, since we did not find any equipment that was allegedly missing that the equipment in question must not exist. Case closed… well, maybe not purple….

Notice the headline says noncompliance with FOID rules where the quoted part really says “did not comply with the requirements of the Firearm Owner’s Identification Card Act” which is noncompliance with the Law…..

And the problem is the 7th might be waiting for “more direction” from SCOTUS —> result = nothing moves…. -
Does she have the intestinal fortitude to bring federal charges….. 18 USC § 242 This federal statute makes it a crime for anyone to willfully deprive someone of a right protected by the Constitution or U.S. law, while acting under color of law.

Duncan v Bonta (Becerra) - CA mag ban (continued)

Basically seems to be saying “I explained it with words and apparently y’all weren’t smart enough to understand it so let me do it in pictures and see if you can get it.”
