Then they could establish a government provided insurance - but only issue it to those deemed to be “of moral character”…. Hey wait, weren’t we here before??

NOPE! Not at all - I said nothing, and insinuate nothing, about the shooting. Please don’t read your twist into something not said. I am simply questioning whether he was “legally” carrying…. Resisting IS a crime.

Lawful carry Carrying lawfully Valid Concealed carry Leagally carrying Lots of similar verbiage….. BUT, I know of no laws authorizing or even allowing the carry of a weapon during the commission of a crime. Does the commission of a crime invalidate “lawful carry” or “carrying leagally”?

Or perhaps sue IN, KY, MO, WI & IA for undercutting their exorbitant gas taxes and inciting the serfs, err citizens, of this fine state to participate in interstate transportation of gasoline - a tank full at a time…..

Renewed mine a year or two ago - “just because” - when it comes up again in 5 or 6 years who knows. Hoping that by then law abiding citizens won’t need permission slips anywhere….. not holding my breath though…

Since Trump now supports decriminalizing it will the left now shift support to criminalizing it??? Waiting for the remarks from the rotund one….

You know this for a fact or is this just speculation on your part?

Nope, don’t talk to folks about carrying. Well that’s not entirely true - I don’t initiate conversations about carrying because it’s none of their business that I carry and it’s not my place to convince them one way or the other - it’s a personal decision. Now, if they wish to initiate the conversation I will gladly discuss the state of things with them and answer general questions however I will duck any questions regarding my personal habits WRT carrying, again, it’s none of their business.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!! The problem with holding your breath is though you start out RED you end up turning BLUE!

Can somebody please forward them the text of PICA?

A good part of that is probably due to the myriad of pro-gun folks who keep perpetuating the myth that Chicago has “the strictest gun control laws” in the nation…..

And update it…

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)
