      Buying ammo out of state?

      So what's the legality of in-person purchase of ammo in another state. Ok, it's Illinois, so almost a foreign country... A friend of mine saw a FB post I made where I said something about rarity of .22LR and he was mocking me thinking I was joking about that. Apparently around his area, stores...

      ILLINOIS: Closing prison and mentally ill care facilities...

      The state is bankrupt. They just won't admit it. Not just financially but it also faces a bankruptcy of ideas and leadership. So now the governor is closing down a prison, releasing prisoners. And closing down homes for the treatment of those mentally ill, turning them out onto the streets...

      New Law! Purple Means "No Trespassing!"

      In Illinois, that is. Purple paint means no trespassing | wthitv.com I'm not sure I see the benefit of switching from an actual sign that say "no trespassing" to a purple post. :dunno:

      Illinois tax increases chase away business

      See what happens when you crank up the taxes on business owners? Raising taxes doesn't add to the public coffers. Ask Illinois! Illinois manufacturer plans Indiana move

      Thinking ahead

      Coming up in August, I'm going to a party on the Indiana/Illinois border in the Chicago land area. It's a party they have every year, and I've gone the past two times. It's a fairly large party that covers 3 days and camping, full of people I do not know. I've read on here that the Illinois...

      Illinois Governor Signs Internet Tax Bill, Drives Businesses To Indiana

      Sweet. The idiot in chief of Illinois doesn't even understand recent history. He signed an internet tax bill into law and didn't think businesses would leave to avoid the tax, like they've done in virtually every other state that's implemented a similar tax. Oh, well. At least we'll benefit from...

      Jimmy John's Founder Bails On Illinois

      And so the exodus begins. The founder of Jimmy John's is moving to Florida and may well be taking his business out of Illinois, too. Can't say as I blame him, either. You can only be robbed by the politicians so many times before it gets tiresome and you move to better and safer pastures. I...

      Illinois Punts On Gun Bills

      Looks like our neighbours to the west went into recess and left all their bills regarding guns in committees, all but insuring their deaths. On the good side is the fact that they sent their anti-gun bills to committee, too. At least that's something the people of the PRI can be thankful for...

      IL Changing the FOID age?

      Not Indiana, but our neighbors to the west are looking into lowering the FOID age to 18 with no need for parental consent. Still no right to carry, but perhaps a step in the right direction if this passes? 18 should be old enough to decide to be armed--even in Illinois

      ILLINOIS committee passes CCW ... but

      Well its true, Illinois is now advancing a Concealed Carry Law that will, if it passes through the process, make it legal for some people to carry guns in the Land of Lincoln. But, as Chicago Tribune columnist Eric Zorn writes, it appears to be nothing more than political theatre...
