Chicago Gun Owners Special Status Post Heller

Chicago—If you own an unregistered handgun, today you’re safe. If you don’t have a Firearm Owner’s Identification Card now there’s no need to worry. As long as you’re not prohibited by any other law to own firearms you will escape being convicted of anything.

There are serious issues of FIOD card applications disclosing two incriminating things. One is that you reside within the City limits of Chicago and two that you probably own a gun in violation of the city gun ban.

The state FIOD process violates Chicago handgun owner’s rights against self-incrimination. Of course you were prohibited from registering a handgun by that unconstitutional city gun ban.

As long as you live in Chicago under current laws you need not have an FIOD or worry about the gun ban.

If Chicago by a new law demands and does not block your registration of handguns you will then have to get that FIOD card and register your gun with the city for sure.

Lots of people will escape prosecution until the City of Chicago follows the law of the land.

If you find yourself arrested be sure to remind your lawyer about the Heller case and ask him to sue the City for violating your civil rights so you can make some money.

I don't understand the issue with FOID in Chicago. Just because someone applies for a FOID card thru the state doesn't necessarily imply that they actually own a firearm. Perhaps they wanted one so that they could go to a range and shoot a friends pistol. How would applying for FOID have anything to do with self incrimination?

Giving the government information that you live in the city of Chicago and are asking the state for permission to OWN firearms is indeed incriminating if a city law does not allow you to possess them.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive. Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning. That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed. It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide. Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community. Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
