I was told this weekend by several members of CPD (at a party) that "we have no problem with you carrying, but we don't want the blacks carrying". I asked what is the difference between me, a white 40-something woman, homeowner, wants to protect family & property, law abiding citizen and a black 40-something woman, homeowner, wants to protect family & property, also a law abiding citizen?
I did't get an answer other than "well, you know" and a change of subject.
Carrying is a hot button issue with all of us Freepers in the People's Republic of Illinois. I don't know how to ping by state, otherwise I would.
Just being able to own a gun is a concern if you live anywhere near Crook County.
