Oh yeah... charges are pending against the intruder, who is being held under police guard at a nearby hospital receiving treatment for two gunshot wounds.

Its the part about potential charges against the home owner that confused me...

HG

 

Well Wilmette has banned handguns for one thing. Another thing is Our governor, Attorney general , and most high ranking officials up that way are anti-gun.

 

Banned? Good grief. I'm glad I don't live in Cook county anymore.

HG

 

Yeah isn't it great? :roll: from the article you linked to; "NBC5's Mary Ann Ahern said it was not clear if the homeowner would be charged for using a handgun; Wilmette bans the possession of handguns."

Cook county = the People's Occupied Republic of Chicago

You have heard about Mayor Daley's C.A.G.E. Unit haven't you?

 

NBC5 reported today that the HOMEOWNER is being charged with 2 counts... one for not having a valid FOID card (that's his dumb fault) and for having a handgun while those are banned in Wilmette. Interesting...

Hmm... what is the CAGE unit??

Now that's scary....... I had never heard of such a thing. Yikes.

Maybe we had better move up north to Wisconsin? Or Texas? I think everything is legal in the republic of Texas.

HG

 

Everything I've seen up that way is scary.

I've been thinking seriously about Montana or South Dakota.

What I'd really like to see is for the state to split at about I-80 but Chicago residents would vote against that since they need downstate tax money to operate. and don't you know Chi-town is THE MOST important place in IL. I mean gosh what would us "other" residents do without their corruption and Hookers?

 

I thought all of the hookers and corruption were down in East St. Louis?

HG

 

Your mayor in Chicago sounds like a tyrannical dictator. I feel so sorry for all of you.

Well there are a bunch of them but they aren't the "real" ones.

guest, Chicago's mayor Daley , just about had himself a whole passel of power, he was Al Gore's campaign manager.

Now, about that shotgun.........

One word:STUPID!!!!! People need to learn and repect guns not get rid of them. What happened to our 2nd amendment???????

 

I can tell you what happened to Our Second Amendment, people are too complacent, 911 woke up a bunch up but truthfully, until something really catastrophic happens like a full blown invasion where gun owning private citizens are instrumental in saving the day, the slippery slope will continue.

Fear and lack of understanding have a lot to do with it also. Too many people blame the inanimate object for acts commited by the person. Look at the "assault" weapons ban, it really wasn't about for or function, hell most of the banned guns have the same operating method as the Remington 1100, the ban was because those guns "looked" scary. All one has to do to realize that is look at the quotes by the backers of it. Couple that with the facts about how often these guns were used in crimes, and there's only one conclusion.

 

Excellent post MarlandS!

Actually it was Mayor Dayley's brother - Bill Daley - who was Gore's campaign manager. But since they're brothers i'll give you the same connection that most people made between Dubya and his brother in FL.

My wife keeps talking about moving to Maine. If i had the same good paying job, cheap hunting land, oh and if we could move the Cubs to Maine, then i'd go for it!
