... you may have had heard about an onerous gun grabbing bill proposed in Cook County. ... distance restrictions from schools, etc...
Additionally ...registration requirements and other issues which would further erode our second amendment rights along with a lot of other garbage included. It’s good thing the bill called “Safe Streets/Weapons Registration Ordinance” died last year. It’s the typical misnaming of a bill, as they are doing the same with the so called “fairness doctrine” to control conservative talk radio, to make it seems as if it’s good for society.
... you can still participate in a telephone poll being taken by the Cook County Government by calling 312-603-6400. To move quickly through the survey hit 1 and 1 to get to the ban question. Pressing 1 says you support it, 2 says you’re opposed.
Concealed carry may finally come to Illinois. Only Illinois & Wisconsin don’t’ have CC laws. The irony of this issue is the recent news that the Illinois Sheriff’s Association wants to have concealed carry for the entire state, a move which would reduce crime as has been historically proven in other areas where’s it’s been done.
... another cleverly misnamed bill called the “Ammunition Accountability Act.” It’s been proposed in 18 states so far. This is the website of the group who wants to limit your freedom: http://ammunitionaccountability.org/Legislation.htm
These people want to limit your ability to buy ammunition without saying you’re second amendment rights may be violated. The result is the same in that with ever increasing tightening of the noose, it will make it difficult to use your gun and protect yourself.
This is a further reminder to contact people who don’t vote to wake up realize Big Brother is just around the corner if we allow it.

Are you going to sleep on it or call now? How can you sleep?
Another thought, What if local governmetn and law enforcement is bribed with stimulus money to support gun grabbing and other takings of our freedoms.
How many billions is for prostitutes? Afterall increasing prostitution is increasing employment, right?
And the prostitutes get to do the rest of us while they get paid.
Be sure to give up all of your ammo first!
