Looks like things are continuing down that slippery slope in IL. This all started with the issuance of the Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card back in the early ’70’s (or maybe late ’60’s). It seems that the Senate passed it’s latest anti-gun bill last week which essentially banned the manufacture, delivery, sale, purchase, or possession or cause to be manufactured, delivered, sold, purchased, or possessed a large capacity ammunition feeding device (i.e. more than 10 rounds).

The IL House passed their version out of Committee yesterday and will be voting soon, maybe as early as Friday, May 25. It’s going to be a close vote so please call your representative TODAY. If the House passes the bill, you just know that the IL gov will sign it.

I guess in my home state (it’s where I was born/raised), people get to enjoy only Amendments 1, and 3-10, in the Bill of Rights. Seems like they have a problem with the 2nd Amendment in the Land of Lincoln. So why haven’t the ISRA, NRA, GOA, RKBA, etc come together to repeal the unconstitutional and illegal (in my opinion) FOID card after 30+ years? It’s only going to get worse in IL as long as the Dems (and Mayor Daley) are in control. Only 2 states have a total ban on concealed carry for it’s citizens, Wisconsin, and yep you guessed it, Illinois. Something’s just not right back home (I live in GA at the moment).
