Because it isn’t going to happen. This is a nonsense post. Quinn is losing the gun control battle. Black Chicago Aldermen are talking about legal concealed carry in Chicago. It’s over.

LOL, for me to travel between Colorado and Central Indiana I have the choice of

- suck it up and go through IL
- Travel from MO into IA, WI than a boat from Milwaukee WI to Michigan then down into Indiana. Want to add that IA and WI are not friendly towards drivers who drive vehicles with very dark tinting
- Other route MO into TN tan KY and up into Indiana

> Illinois is like a little California, in the middle of the country. If I were driving from East to West, I’d go around it.

You are misreading the 2nd Amendment. Unlike the 1st in which the operative phrase is “Congress shall make no law. . .,” the 2nd has the operative phrase “. . . shall not be infringed.” The plain meaning does not require the application of the 14th Amendment to make it applicable to the states and localities — “shall not be infringed” is an absolute statement, not a restraint specifically placed on the Federal government or the Congress.

Your post implies that all guns would be banned in the whole state. Am I misinterpreting what you wrote?

As someone who knows people in southern Illinois, this will not happen.

Wrong. The Bill of Rights does actually apply to all citizens. For example, a state cannot outlaw free speech. It’s bizzare to suggest the Bill of Rights and constitutional protections only apply to people in DC and military bases, etc.

We made many stops in Texas, Virginia, and other states where I could legally carry.

Y'all come back now, heah?

Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo is next month .... kicks off with giant BBQ contest, you get to wander around and try all sorts of different BBQ and "rubs". Great stuff.
