Records show Chaney faced weapons charges in 2010 but those charges were later dropped. He was sentenced in 2009 to one year of court supervision for unlawful use of a weapon and failing to register a firearm.
So this creep has been in the "no guns" system before and been let off. Why? If I were to make the mistake of getting caught with a gun in this same area, they'd be quick to make an example of me, just like the woman at the 9-11 Memorial (story running in a different thread here now.) I want to print 1,000s of copies of this story and send them to every anti in the country, asking them to explain to me in detail, how these situations happen. After all, IL has a no guns policy.
Then again, I'd just be wasting my time. The facts never matter to antis.
No, they don't. People just lump all of Illinois into one pile. There are two parts of Illinois; Illinois and Chicago. They are totally different. And, yes, Illinois has a FOID (Firearms Owner ID) card that you are required to have to own a firearm, but they do allow them. There are tons of guns in outstate Illinois and some majorly good hunting in the southern part of the state.

Bottom line, don't confuse Cook County (Chicago) with the rest of the state.
