In an effort to keep as many people from applying as they can, the Illinois State Police have decided to only accept CCW applications online.
Yeah, not going to happen. Especially w/ the wonder that is the Obamacare website, I'm sure their intentions are honorable.
Is it any wonder that pro-gun activists distrust any and all new laws/rules when in every instance, they get abused? All the ISP is going to do is generate countless more lawsuits and cost the state even more money.

A couple questions, if you can:
- Does the ISRA (or any other pro-gun group) have the funds on-hand for another lawsuit?
- Do they have standing at this point (among other things, is there a specific and measurable harm in how CCW is being implemented)?
- At what point can a judge impose harsh sanctions against the powers-that-be to force them to abide by the intent of the legislature and not add in onerous obligations that aren't part of the original CCW bill?
- Alternatively, or perhaps additionally, at what point can a judge (correctly) assume that any CCW implementation by the ISP will add in extra obligations and strike down all requirements other than the exact letter of the law?
(Yea, I know that last one is wishful thinking....)
Obstructing ANY way they can... Truly sucks!!!
Sounds like grounds for a Fourteenth Amendment suit, if you want my decidedly non-expert opinion.
