Exactly like conservatives said could happen with the state issuing various licenses to own firearms. At any time, they can confiscate those guns.

Wouldn't it be nice if those Cook County sheriffs had a list of guns owned by each FOID cardholder, so they knew exactly what to seize?

In February, Dart assigned a sergeant and four investigators to a gun team that has recovered about 160 FOID cards and taken more than 160 guns from the cardholders.

My question is, were those who had their cards revoked adjudicated by a court? Or were they deemed unauthorized by a nurse comment or a bureaucrat? The devil is in the details. and the article is not very informative.

Ummm... Some of us have FOID cards without actually owning a firearm. There are a number of reasons, the first being that we want to keep the option of owning a firearm on short notice open. It also has to do with reasons as varied as being able to go shooting with friends, purchasing ammo as presents, etc. Not everyone with a FOID card is a FO.

Would be nice if the Cook County Sheriff’s office would fan out and harass gang bangers. But alas, no. Sternly worded letters are all they are willing to do.

Meanwhile, in central Illinois counties of Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford, we have had concealed carry for about 6 weeks now, while the rest of the states waits for the state police to set up a process to issue licenses.

The state’s attorneys in those counties have stated that they will not prosecute anyone for concealed carry as long as they have the FOID. I have an FOID.

I’m getting it on the cheap because you can bet that when the state gets their way it will be an expensive and long process.

The correct response:

Huh? That old thing?!? I turned it into one of those gun buyback programs months ago for $50 bucks....

C’mon! No one is talking about talking your guns! You’re just paranoid! /sarc.

Another blatant LIE from the Left, I’m getting sick of the fact that more and more of their agenda has to rest on a foundation of lies

Why have I not been reading about dead deputies? Have they really been able to do this without casualties, or have we just really come to such a low state?
