US  evening news, or hear
politicians
             disseminating this information.

             Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property
and, yes,
             gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding
citizens

            Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!

            The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please
remind them
             of this history lesson.

             With guns, we are 'citizens.'

In order to purchase a firearm in the state of Illinois the citizen must apply for a F.O.I.D. card (Firearm Owners Identification card).  The card is 10 dollars and is good for a period of 10 years.  A great way to support our second amendment would be to apply for the card even if you never purchase a gun.  This influx of applications  would show the Illinois politicians that the majority of Illinoisians are tired of seeing their right to bear arms taken away.  Click :
