I’d love to been a fly on the wall at any Illinois gun shop when the first time gun buyers discovered that they couldn’t just walk into a gun store and walk out with a firearm. That in fact they first needed a permission card from Illinois to just handle a firearm or ammunition, AND then permission ( back ground check) from a Federal institution. I’ve seen some very confused faces at most every Local gun shop I’ve been in over the last 4 months. I witnessed some very patient sales people. I swear I even saw 1 or 2 with a little blood at the side of there mouth trying not to laugh.

Well of course they are allowed guns we have to make up for thousands of years of systematic racism.
