As Suzanna Hupp said to her politicians, paraphrased - "the reason we have guns is to protect ourselves from you guys up there"

It's going to be a long hard road....

They just can't tell us about it.)

And so it begins.

The next few years are going to be crucial folks, if you want to own guns, and especially if you want your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren to be able to own guns.

Watch your legislators and hold them accountable for their actions.

Watch your Sheriff and do the same.

It's two different issues. The grassroots alert refers to the new magazine law about to be voted on.

My comment regarding the NRA was in regards to the confiscation of firearms in Chicago. They will likely jump in the middle of that, as they did in New Orleans. At least I hope they do.

The .45 I bought in December of 2006 officer?
Oh, it was transferred out of state.
The AR lower?
Transferred out as well before the jack booted thugs came to round them up.

The first day I can, I will burn my FOID card and my Illinois driver's license. After this, no way will I work in Illinois. Blago and Daley can suck it! Sorry if that offends people, I'm just so sick and tired of Chicago pushing this crap on the rest of Illinois. I truly hope that SA, Arma-Lite, DSA, RRA, and any other manufacturer in Illinois moves to IN, IA, etc. and refuses to sell anything to any Illinois LE agency.

I absolutely agree! If I was the President/CEO of any of those companies I would be looking for facilities in another state ASAP. I also would refuse to sell any firearms, ammunition, accessories or do any repairs for ILSP or any Chicago Police unit (Just like Barrett did with LA)

Les Baer Custom, Inc. has said they are moving operations and leaving Hillsdale, IL for this very reason. They have already made an offer on some land in Iowa for a new plant.

We need to support businesses that make such a decision and be sure to tell them why we are using them.
