    Could have dealt without this over dramatic story telling, going to make people think it is staged

    Just got the word I'll still be working.

    Just told them all I request is not to have a trainee.

    100% shut down save essentials. Well daughter and hubby and son essential. Her banking working from home though and them construction.
    I now keep a loaded shot gun and all doors and windows locked. Break ins and luring people to door saying they are doing CV testing.. Son called and said don't open door if someone knocks. Don't worry we have hardware cloth screwed to window frame off covered deck. Cat was shredding screen. I'll just open the window pump the action on the shot gun and ask if I can help them.

    From a credible source elsewhere, gun and ammunition manufacturers and retailers are exempt from the stay at home order here in IL.

    Wonder if it’s considered essential to be out to purchase a firearm and then pick up after the waiting period ?

    Seen a video somewhere, anti-gunners going into gun shops in CA saying they feel it is finally time to purchase a gun even though they don't like them, then complain about going through all the hurdles they wanted so badly and really mad when they were told they had to come back in 10 days to take possession of it.

    Lol. My friend is taking orders on custom built AR platforms over the phone with a 48hr turnaround. Walk in the door do your paperwork and background check, out the door in about 20 minutes.

    Good luck, we hit two in two different states yesterday and there was nothing. I try somewhere other than Walmart if need it. They were even out of dog and cat food yet went right across the street to a farm store (farm and home, tractor supply, whatever it's called where you are ha) and they were basically fully stocked.

    On another forum(firearm related) a member has posted about a gun dealer telling him about a Dem. Senator from IL being outraged that a member of government could not purchase a firearm to defend himself and his family without having a valid FOID.

    Maybe this will open the anti-gunners minds up a little bit and realize what all of these lobbying groups have been getting them to pass through.

    Yea looks like not much really changed. They shut down the stuff ppl shouldn't have been out jacking around with anyway.




    This whole thing kinda seems unavoidable really. But there's so many stupid ass people, adults mind you, that can't suck it up for week or two and not just do whatever they want. So now we're stuck with the gov stepping in and forcing it to be avoided. Was talking to someone when the announcements were goin on and first thing they said was, "oh that sucks, guess tanning salon is shut down." For the love of god, commen sense probably woulda prevented alot. Actually saw comment elsewhere that was like "if i get sick that's my buisness and my problem, government can't tell me what to do." It's like ****, (self filtered for Justin, rhymes with what goes quack tho haha) people like that are the reason you're getting told what can and can't do. Nobody gives a crap if you wanna make youtself sick. But if you are and you're too stupid, which with that attitude sure ya are, to get treatment and keep goin on about your buisness it's others that are gonna suffer. And honestly idk if would be or not, or if this is all a load of **** but why chance it out of stupidity. It's like being back in grade school again where whole class gets in trouble cause one little turd won't shut up.


    Feel like that last part shoulda been in rant thread but got sidetracked and jabbering.

    I have a coworker who is a true rebel. Low 30's, I'm nit staying home, it's the flu, wws your hands and scree the government.

    Waiting for the right opportunity to lay it on him that he out of all people could be concerned. He has a 4 month old daughter, if she gets sick here in about 3 days she may not be able to get treatment. It's only then that all of this and what it was meant for might sink in. Might. I'll feel bad for his daughter, but all he'll get from me is an I told you so.
