Chicago carry?

[miguel's sister]

Isn't there a fault line right around Chicago area for when the big earthquake hits it will sink in Lake Michigan??? Like California...

Yep, the New Madrid Fault Line. Supposedly bigger than the San Adreas Fault Line actually.

The Dim party will never be ousted in Chicago, unfortunately. Too many maroons are dependent on the party and vote for them over and over and over.

Maybe not, but the Republicans have to do more to destroy its power.

Turn it into Detroit and let it collapse from within.

This has been the bane of my carrying. I live in the North west Indiana area, but the majority of my family live in the Chicago area. Every time I go visit, I can't carry and it just bothers me to no end

The Republicans in Ill are no better than the Dems. More than anyone else the Illinois republican party put into motion the chain of events that led to Obama being the president.

Mike Madigan, Daley, and a dozen others need to go to jail in order to break the status quo.

Yea, here you go driving into one of the highest crime cities in America, which has massive amounts of gangs and murder, the place where your 10x more likely to be assaulted, and they prevent you from defending yourself. They don't even want you to have a stun gun or mace! If I didn't know better, I'd think the gangs ruled the street, and the government was doing their bidding....

New Illinois Law on stun guns and tasers - FREE SHIPPING on pepper spray, mace, tasers, stun guns

if you have ever been to ****cago you would understand why they dont want you to have a handgun

No argument. The Jack Ryan election is a tragedy that should be studied for its political consequences. Unfortunately the Illinois Republican party still thinks that they did the right thing.

And most of them with Judy Barr Topinka being the most visible are still running the party and she was elected back in office after the fiasco. Every one of them should have fell on their swords and gone away in utter disgrace.

As I understand it, Chicagoan's may now have one handgun in their house, if they buy a state license, a city license, register the handgun, and take training. But they may not carry the gun to protect themselves, only use it to protect their home.

dont forget about the bloodwork

 

[Excalibur]

I'm starting to think of alternative ways of defense in Chicago. Like if there's a ban on swords or ancient weapons. I'd start fashioning make shift weapons that they don't have a law against. If they haven't banned metal baseball bats, I'll walk around carrying one in a bag over my shoulder.

You failed to specifically mention Rahm Emmanuel.

Shame on you.

so, what's everyone's take on the folllowing... There is 'kinda' concealed carry in Illinois.. (maybe not chicago, but illinois in general)

not sure if state law trumps city or local law but here's a link for those interested in reading up on it...

Seems as if you can have a 'fanny pack' that unzips (I've seen these before) that is specific for a pistol and magazine and you can be within the letter of the law..

Any ideas ?

Yea, as long as it is unloaded, lol.

"How do I take advantage of this law to increase my personal safety?

Purchase a concealed carry fanny pack and carry an unloaded gun with magazines at the ready in the compartment. You will be just “Six Seconds From Safety” as you can open the case and quickly lock and load your handgun should a use of lethal force situation arise. Not as good as a concealed carry law, but a lot better than it used to be!"

It was a debacle.

And here is the problem...the whole state is corrupt, no matter the party.

Welcome to the club.

 

[nemo97]

If the whole state is corrupt, maybe we should build a warzone fence around the place and keep its subjects held within so they do not pollute the rest of the nation... same goes for New England and California.

 

[CPT Nervous]

Hey now there is still some good ole boys up here in the NWI...

Thanks for thinking of us.

 

[CPT Nervous]

Then why don't they vote out the Democrats like Rahm Emanuel?

He has a lot of support from the dead community...

 

[Excalibur]

It really is only a matter of time. IL is the last state with no provision for carry. Eventually it will cave in and compromise some how

 

[jazzy1993]

Most of my friends that live in Chicago think guns are for BGs. It is pointless to have any conversations with those people in that blue state, let alone get their government to change anything. I live on the Indiana border and it is a pain sometimes when I want to skip traffic on Calumet and take Wentworth. I have to skip it all together.
