I hate to be THAT guy, but I wonder if they are going to adopt the "justifiable need" criteria. If not, go IL!!

Provide for home rule preemption. That is the sticking point. Illinois will become a patchwork quilt State where you can carry in some towns and cannot and many others. Obviously Chicago and almost all of Cook County will be a big no no.

Then the gun owners of IL have every right to challenge the law stating it is still hamstringing the court's ruling.

All shall issue states have specified qualifications. You meet them, you get the permit. Not like the wishy washy may issue bs. Don't read too much into that.

[lunker 274]

Michigan is a shall issue State that also provides for local preemption, so there is a precedent.

I would like clarification on what you mean by that. Because I think that is not true in most shall issue states.

So tell me why the pro 2A politicians don't hold out and simply allow the court ordered time to run out and have constitutional carry. I know this would be a huge change for IL, but why give in now?

LIke:

 

1. Can't be a felon or prohibited persons

2. Need to take a basic safety course (Florida CCW requirement)

1 - Not really.  You can't possess a firearm if you are a felon (I think there are exceptions) or prohibited so that is not really a specified qualification. 2 - No.  Not all shall issue states require a course or any training at all.

[diamondd817 827]

New shall issue CCW bill for IL = HB0097 Introduced 1/29/13

 

This bill also inlcudes universal reciprocity and allows non-residents to get a IL ccw. Preemption and OC protection is covered.

 

The bill looks good.

I don't see "universal reciprocity".

 

The Department shall enter into reciprocal agreements with any other state whose requirements to obtain a license or

permit is substantially similar to those requirements contained in Section 85.

 

With Section 85 being training:
