Illinois state Rep. Mike Bost (R-Murphysboro) launched into a fiery tirade on the Illinois House floor after Democratic lawmakers attempted to sneak in what he considered to be a significant floor amendment to a proposed concealed carry bill. Bost’s outburst actually occurred on April 17, but was only lightly covered.
The House was debating the “may issue” proposal in regards to the state’s forthcoming concealed carry law when Bost lost his cool. The proposal would allow sheriffs to decide whether a citizen has a legitimate reason to carry a gun.
“Floor amendments should be some technical small change that we shouldn’t have to worry about like this. But yet you bring a whole bill that has questions whether it is even constitutional,” Bost said. “Folks, the process is really messed up. Quit! This is not the bill that everyone has debated…it is a ploy and once again your side of the aisle keeps trying to make ploys instead of dealing with the real issue. Keep playing games!”

"May issue", or "shall issue" ? Huge difference! Which is it?
The issue is Democrats will lie, cheat, steal, misrepresent, misinform, convolute, distract... etc.
Anything to promote the agenda.
We need to revolt...
Being forced to ask the government if its okay to exercise and use the rights we have, by law and God's grace, been granted to OURSELVES (NOT by some sheriff, or congressman, or scared of the dark girlies) is such an insult that 11:39 has it correct. The ONLY way we are gonna get it right is to take this country back from the brain dead and historically stupid who think they can take these rights with a wave of their imperial hand. And do things like sign "pressure cooker bans" in the most serious manner. These are our future "leaders". THAT should scare the hell out of everyone. Actually, our CURRENT "leaders" should scare the hell out of us, too. THEY are comparable to the Nazi's of 1936-39......
