What's up with HB0245 (Illinois Concealed Carry)?

[F14Scott]

I just learned of this impossibly good news. Does it have a snowball's chance?

C'mon now! Be real here, this is IL, IT WON'T PASS!
We can and will continue to hope and pray for this...:supergrin:

With Blago out, Illinoisans have a *shot* at this in the next 10 years. But.. "It will take at least 10 years to convert Springfield and Chicago in to free-minded, non-Liberal minded cities"... that's from a LEO buddy of mine.

anyone else hate this state? :rofl:

[jpforrest]

yep! i hate it, I'm from NW Indiana but i hate that i cant carry if I plan on going to Illinois. Just went camping in southern Illinois and it would have been nice to have the security of my G 19! :whistling:

There are three more CCW bills in the house and senate. The most important thing you can do is WRITE and CALL your reps and senators.

90% Vote for C&C to be reality and we still get ignored... Gotta love IL politics...

Hopefully one day this will pass. IL is of the few states that dont allow CCW and its sad.

It would be great if theis would get passed. I don't think it has a chance though. I don't hate this state, just it's taxes,gun laws, and crooked politicians.
