While we here in Ohio still have the right to keep and bear arms, our friends in Illinois appear to simply have the right to remain silent. Without our vigilance, we will eventually share their fate. This story can be found on the Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA)website.
ISRA Press Release:
ISRA Asks Senator Kotowski to Explain State Police Infringements on First Amendment Rights of Illinois Gun Owners:
CHICAGO, June 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following was released
today by the Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA):
