You mean they didn't slip a requirement in there that they have to pick up their permits in person between 3:46 PM and 3:47PM?

Hallelujah !

I'm a little surprised there's not more comment on this.

Currently I'm unable to afford to exercise my "right" to conceal carry.

Maybe some day I'll make enough money where I can easily afford to become a full citizen worthy of all constitutionally protected rights.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Well, we don't want a bunch of a poor people carrying guns around, obviously.

<chatterbox>

I just got off the igold bus captain conference call.  There was some chitchat about it.  Multiple people reported being "approved".  Those that were actually received would have been mailed from the Springfield PO on Friday.

Emphasis this year will be on gunfree zones.

Application number is based on when one started the app, not when it was completed.  I started mine on 12/18 when it opened for instructors, but clicked the final [ apply] when it finally opened for the general public on 1/5.  Thus a fairly low app number, still "under review".

high cost

Yeah, that needs to get worked on.  On the training side, in good capitalist fashion I have seen prices on the full 16 hours dip to just below $200.

I did bring up the high cost to our local rep (the guy who replaced Jim Sacia) when he had a town meeting to cover the new law.  He just didn't seem to get what the problem was.

Since it appears that they are actually issuing permits, I think I'll send in for mine.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

So do you still have to have a FOID or does the CCW permit replace that?

Hot diggity dog. We're now hearing from Chicago residents using their CCLs out on the mean streets.  =D

I find this all very inspiring. Anybody else?

You know what inspires me?  Links.  I will refuse to believe your stories of Chicagoans? Chicagoites? Chicagoers? carrying until I get a link out of sheer contrariness.
