Whatever are you babbling about? He only beat her, he didn't shoot her.

Silly person. Learn the difference between "domestic violence" and "gun violence," then come back and post.

From the article:

"Tio Hardiman, director of theanti-violence group CeaseFire Illinois, was arrested Friday morning on a misdemeanor domestic battery charge at his home in west suburban Hillside."

That says anti-violence, not gun violence.  Maybe you should learn the difference...

I think Hawkmoon was being sarcastic. I would also gently point out, from your quote, that the organization is CeaseFire Illinois, which implies a focus on guns.

I can -guarantee- it was sarcasm.

Quick tip for APS reading enjoyment: if someone whose been around awhile posts something where the two possible readings are "they're being sarcastic" or "they are an idiot or anti-gun", it is 99.99% certain it is the former*.

Best to just assume it, in fact.

* - the former of the latter however should be assumed if the long-term poster is fistful  =D

T'was indeed intended as sarcasm. Mea culpa for omitting the obligatory smily.

Per DoOT blog, he has a prior DV charge and restraining order yet, in Chicago, still had his FOID and Chicago firearm permit. Only had to surrender them and his firearm this arrest.

That's a Lautenberg violation, wonder who okayed him keeping the permits and gun the first time?

This is not surprising.
Strident anti-gun people are usually anti-gun because they know in their minds that they themselves don't have the mental discipline or stability to be safely left alone with a firearm, so in extension, they believe noone else can be trusted with a firearm either (unless of course, that person is an agent of the all-powerful, benevolent government).

ya gotta wonder.  The anti-guy I listened yammer on about road rage during one set of Illinois hearings was certainly projecting.

Tio also writes for the Huff Po: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tio-hardiman/  I like his email address that he uses on his Huff Po bio page, uic.edu. I didn't know you could get a degree in inner city studies.

Hey Monkeyleg... from that one time you met her in person, did you ever get the sense Jeri Boniva smacked her husband around?
