This is great! Looks as if the American Spirit is alive and kicking !

 

[BigMoose]

Thats normal. The Chicago pols and the rest of the state pols really really don't get along.

 

[Caleb]

did they actually pass a gun bill yet?

The video won't play in the link... I wanted to see!

@ Caleb:
Nope. June 9th, here we come.

@ SHC Devildog:
Make sure you're not blocking livestream.com.

How permanent would constitutional carry be after June 9th?

 

[CathyInBlue]

Until the IL GA pulled their collective head out of their collective posterior and passed something that the IL Gov. could sign.

So...

Quite a while.

Wasn't Drury wrong about what went to SCOTUS this week?

I thought it was the SAFE Act that got sent directly to them without going through the proper channels, not the 2nd Circuit's decision on may issue.

Either way, Bost set himself up. That's exactly what we don't need.

thread moved to legislation of 2a forum.

So why would pro-gun legislators in Ill vote for anything less than a perfect bill on concealed carry?

Because it is Illinois, gun owners are used to losing.

No bill. Illinois needs to be Wyoming!

The sponsor of the shall-issue bill (the good one) that got voted down this week was cautioning about the "Wild West" that would ensue should Constitutional Carry kick in. This is Illinois we're talking about. You would think the pro-carry crowd would use the specter of Con. Carry as the "blackmail" to getting a good carry bill, but they're only SLIGHTLY less scared of Con. Carry that the anti's in IL are.

Those were people who makes laws?

Looked like a bunch of 5 years old pointing their fingers and throwing a fit.

Just like presidential stompy foot last week?

The "bad" may-carry bill with home-rule exceptions galore went down in utter flames.

Leftist lessons learned: zero

They'll never swallow their pride long enough to get a shall-issue bill with state-wide uniformity before June 9. Constitutional Carry is as good as implemented.

I'm liking idea of an INGO invasion to Chicago
