Do you carry while attending Church?
Tip replied to StuckInIllinois's topic in Illinois Right to Keep and Carry
I carry everywhere it is legal to do so. You do you. -
How about they just do away with all taxes and subsidies for Chicago Transit and simply make the system be self sustaining— set rates so income = operating expenses — those who use it should pay for it. They can add in surcharges to rates to get outta debt. (Note that I said operating expenses - capital improvements and system expansion can still be on the public’s dime via grants and taxes).

And if you voluntarily participate they offer you pennys on the dollar because if you don’t accept it they will come and take it by force, AND they’ll know where you live and what you have…. (not purple)

I am back in Illinois!
Tip replied to Flingarrows's topic in Illinois Concealed Carry Licensing Process
And having firearms you legally bought/sold/possessed in your previous state declared illegal to buy/sell/possess…. -
Hard to scream against violating the constitution and then scream for violating the constitution without it looking totally absurd….

What if the powers that be (i.e. the money brokers) on the other side decide that, because of the interest shown by SCOTUS, this isn’t the case they want before SCOTUS??? A hard core throw down ruling by a conservative bent SCOTUS might end their endless game of infringe, rewrite, infringe again… and might be difficult to overturn once issued…

Justice Department Considering Ban on Trans People Owning Firearms

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
Tip replied to Euler's topic in Illinois Right to Keep and Carry
Thought it was revoked, not suspended.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license must be clear (i.e.not suspended or revoked) and must be “surrendered” (often just defaced to indicate it’s no longer valid).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???

looks like someone on twitter doesn't like me
Tip replied to Tvandermyde's topic in Illinois Politics
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…..
