pike county's civic leadership is a batch of little heroes, at least to me. they must have forty-pound balls of titanium to stand up to Daley and blagojevich, at least from what i've read so far. i hope amagi turns out completely right.

someone update soon
 
visited store...

I visited the store over Christmas for some shopping and support and had a very interesting talk with one of the older gentlemen who work in the gun section. He stated that Hoffman Estates has told the Cook County Board to "piss off".
The store has been built in a new development section that has gone through a lot of development, but little traffic. The Cabela's injection was needed very badly and H.E. can not loose them.
Daley and Urkel (County Pres. Stroger for those of you blessed with not living around here), from what I understand, are not very happy.

The voices of reason throughout Cook County have been silenced for so long that most just look at you and ask "but why do you need a gun away?" or the comment I had this morning, "why do I care about that" from a friend who lives in the city.

Our democratic governor is a crook. So many prosecutors are waiting in the wing building up their cases against him. The GOP is in shambles and loosing ground rapidly. The only glimmer of hope was in the last election when the libertarian party captured 10%, meaning matching funds for the next go around.

Well, we did give the country Obama...I guess that is something, isn't it?

Go Ron Paul!
 
From that link that was posted:
If I fail to zip up the case entirely, will I be guilty of a felony?

No, as long as the firearm is unloaded, and none of the aggravating factors of the Unlawful Use of Weapons
(UUW) law are present. The way to avoid this situation is to make sure firearm cases are completely zipped or
otherwise completely fastened shut.
Wow...you shouldn't even HAVE to ask this.
 
I was at the Cabela's yesterday. The store was very crowded. It was a pleasure to see lots of regular folks in the gun section, including many families. I signed their petition. Hope it helps.
