    People who complain about their right to free speech without actually knowing how it works. On a privately owned forum the management have the absolute right to ban and censure. Stop it triggered idiot, you are wrong. This is at another website BTW.

    You're trying to hard. And it's apparently bothering you way more than me.

    What morons? Cause those morons are already in charge here, which is what me, dnoodles, and cls are talking bout. You said take it to SC, it has been several times and been overturned then reinstated. The firearms id card is goin back and fourth through the courts right now. But again morons we haveta deal with and now that there's anothe dem governor it'll get way worse before it gets better.

    So I'm really on the edge of 3 sheets to the wind. Why because I don't drink and I have had 2 big grapefruit and vodka. I just wrote that 4 times..hahzhzhaja. Not correcting that! I got tired of taking aspirin to curve the daily arthritis pain. 2 months behind tThaksi to a mis diagnosis and rain every day since May 1.. Raining right now! So I'm feeling a tad b----y. Hubby got home and said wow mouthy too..lol Got to give him a break for being spot on.
    So I'll stay away from commenting on politics BECAUSE. I like my freedom..hahahha

    Monday worked 14 hours. Tuesday-Wednesday 30 hours straight. Got home, had one whiskey and half a beer and passed out for 3 hours. Just woke up and my body refuses to believe it's not Friday night. Nope, it's still Wednesday.

    FFS.

    Wow, in Oklahoma it takes longer to fill out the background check than the wait for approval and leaving the store with purchased gun in hand. We even have shooting ranges with bars that serve alcohol. Yeehaw.

    If you really want to hear/read some ranting, go to the Michigan State facebook page for parents for incoming freshman. If little miss did not get the dorm she wanted parents go ballistic. My daughter has done this all on her own, she got her dorm, roommate and everything else set with no help from us. well besides hey Dad write me a check for this amount:lmao2:

    You'd be risking a lot of cash to get there in hopes of SCOTUS actually accepting to hear the case.

    First you would have to file locally, a loss if you are in Cook county. Then file the appeal, likely another loss. File an appeal to the ILSC, likely loss, then file it with the 7th circuit, likely loss, but this circuit did give us a win with concealed carry. Then take it to SCOTUS. Would probably take 15 years min.

    I'm sure one of the other states already has a case going that is better for this, 10 day waiting period is an even greater burden to excercise a constitutional right.

    SCOTUS has at least one case they have agreed to hear in the Fall. If they start taking on more 2A cases, which they have not been, I would think they would take on some of these type cases as well.

    So , hitch up your britches and batten down the hatches because it is going to be a world ****e show from now to Nov . 2020.
    Why you ask, because the Democrats have been bent on weakening this country on the world stage. They can't get out of their own heads to see what they are doing to the US on the world stage. Trump in his efforts to pull the US out from under the feet of Europe, Asia and the Middle East has tweaked both friend and foe. Though I say friend with a grain of salt. What you see is the Democrats weakening the Government in full view of the world instead of supporting their countries leader, ever widening the crack our foes are stepping through. They are effecting the trade talks, they are allowing God only knows into our borders . They are emboldening Iran, N. Korea, China and Russia to spread out our attention to weaken us.
    I do not understand why there are no Republicans organizing mass protest in Washington against Congress. Bus people in from across the country. People will gather for the Macy Day parade, new years in Time Square, the superbowl, concerts but they won't in an effort to get their law makers under control.

    Because if that many of us gather in one place at one time it creates too large of a TRE.
