Chicago defense options

[the1kidd03]

Same as it always is, manufactured political dependency. Substitution if that makes sense. You substitute your ability to defend yourself for an iron soup bowl.

The Machine needed to control political opponents who may resist the ward taxes and the population as a whole who would become more and more dependent upon the government for their own safety.

I just don't understand how willingly so many people give up their liberty.

Ok, wait, you said Chicago. Is it Chicago or a burb, big difference?

IDK. The address is "Northbrook." It doesn't appear to be all that close to downtown Chicago.

I don't know if this link will work in the manner I hope, LOL. https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&...ei=msM8UMOeHoKsyAGHr4CwAQ&sqi=2&ved=0CJcBELYD

GSD? I don't think I'm familiar with the acronym??

German Sheep herder...

That's Northbrook, not Chicago. Chicago thinks it is a lot bigger than it is.

I heard a Chicago real estate broker refer to Lafayette as "Greater Chicago".

Do you know Illinois state laws as to knives?

Like I said, I AVOID that state at all costs (as well as CA, DC, NY). I know nothing of their laws other than no carry and locking gun and ammo up in vehicle when passing through.

Typically, my response to show my disgust with Cali is that I'll be glad when it finally falls in the ocean. But, there's not gonna be any such luck with Illinois.

You could always hope it gets small asteroid falls on it and creates a crater and then Lake Michigan fills up the crater with water.

GSD? I don't think I'm familiar with the acronym??

One of these deadly and loyal doggies..

cant you carry a gun as long as it is "6 seconds to safety" or is that everywhere in IL except cook county?

You can carry a gun in IL EXCEPT CITY OF CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY, IL.

1) Unloaded
2) In a secure container (ie. something that fully encases the gun (fanny pack, gun case, etc.)

To the best of my knowledge you can't carry a gun anywhere in that backwards state.

See post above.

It's done ssssssllllloooowwwwwlllllyyyy over a period of time. We are now into 3rd or 4th generation of people that depend on "uncle sam" for help so it's now "normal".

Back to topic.
One of these can come in handy and keep you just as safe of all the laws.

I'm going there to visit a site I'm engineering so I'll already have several of those too.

Thanks for the info. Shall I start running a tab?

 

[jgreiner]

F***ing SERIOUSLY?!? I don't even think I own a pocket knife less than 3"

Just another reason I hate that state

Go buy a Louisville slugger (Pro Maple or Aluminum), and toss it over your shoulder. If anyone asks, you just came from ball practice.

 

[the1kidd03]

Oh and I do have a GSD. He's not ready to take on a strong arm yet though. 70lbs at 7 months, I think he's got a bright future

Pray you aren't attacked by a really fat guy!

 

[BlueEagle]

Pray you aren't attacked by a really fat guy!

Or that you don't ACTUALLY need to cut anything open while you're there...that's freaking ridiculous.

Here's my Illinois defense. I always keep it between me and everyone in Illinois, and I keep moving pretty fast; it's a blunt-force trauma thing.

 

[the1kidd03]

I know, right. I've seen people have NECKS with 3" of fat. So much for exploiting that vulnerability.

& see this is why we need to BAN this objects! You can kill someone with it. At the MIN there should be a 10 day waiting period to get one.

Yeah, I'm sure after driving through Chicago I'll need that "cool down period."

I'd go with the vomit defense

Illinois is dumb
