Re: Denied Illinois FOID card
Posted by Tim on 9/06/07

    Listen to me, here’s my suggestion. If you live in Illinois
    and you know you need mental health care, DON’T GO. I know
    you are trying to do the right thing and go get help, but
    Illinois legislators, will take your guns away. Personally I
    think it is stupid for them to take your guns away, because,
    once the word gets out to all the people who need mental
    health treatment, no one will go get help. They will be
    afraid that they will lose their guns. Bottom line, Illinois
    will have a lot of people out there who wont get help,
    because they will be to scared to get help. Guess what now we
    have a bunch of mental case’s not getting help carrying guns.
    Stupid laws Illinois have, doesn’t anyone ever think before
    they pass a law like that?
