I was born and raised in Illinois, but you couldn't drag me back!

I'm pretty sure IL would be a red state if it wasn't for the Chicago...Most people from here (NW-IL) are more conservative-minded, IMHO...

Unfortunately, you can lump Rock Island County in with Cook Co. I just looked at the ballot for the upcoming primaries, and there are no Republicans running for about 90% of the elections.

Please don't paint all State Police with the same brush as portrayed by this post. This was some higher up political Commander that was at the heart of this crap. One of my best friends, a retired Sgt State Trooper is about as far "right" as they come. His favorite quote about concealed carry. "Would you rather be carried by six (pallbearers) or judged by 12 (jurors)."
His advice. Be discreet. Be sober. Only use it if your life is threatened. I did for a while and never felt comfortable.

Now I live in Arizona, he's moving to Kentucky.

Kentucky ROCKS.......

we have a very gun-friendly state....hell, it was a DEMOCRAT Governor who signed our Conceald Carry bill about ten years ago.....

Chicago sucks bung-hole, along with New Jersey when it comes to gun control....

my brother lives in the Republik of New Jersey and some good friends of mine lived in Communist Chicago in college......

hell, you have to get a permit to buy a godam' "caulking-gun" at Lowes in both those **** holes....LOL LOL

I was born there and moved out in 1998.

High taxes, Blue politics, horrible weather, fat women, high real estate prices, draconian gun laws....

Try and find a decent place to shoot
