I wish that I shared your optimism. The power structure in IL, based in Chicago, has been in place for a very long time and manages to continue to control elections to keep the Elite inner circle of the power structure in power. Until that changes, the diligence and persistence of the many is going to continue to be thwarted by the few. I don't expect that any of us on this forum will see, within our lifetimes, CC in Chicago that even matches what we have today in Texas. I will say the same for NY, NJ.TexasCajun wrote:Give them a break. They're 20 years behind the times. I would imagine they're following the course laid out about 45 times. That being get a chl program up & running. Then after a time where the streets aren't running with blood, start to slowly chip away at the restrictions. If they are diligent and persistent, they'll end up with a pretty good situation.
We could hope that a Washington regime change, with a more aggressive DOJ posture on this matter would help. I don't hold for that either.
We applied that day and almost 6 mo later, FOID cards arrived but she was so disapointed with the way she was treated at the shop, no way she wanted to go back. We moved to TX a few months later and she is now a proud card carrying member of the CHL club. She owns several firearms and enjoys shooting!!!
