Getting around Chicago... I wonder if the Illinois Department of Transportation knows how many people use 294, or swing even further west to bypass Chicago when traveling between Wisconsin and Indiana?<br />
<br />
While I don't want Illinois to be come a Balkanized patchwork quilt of gun laws, it would be interesting to see if letting Chicago have it's own way in gun laws would result in any significant demographic changes. Would there be a shift of pro-gun, Libertarian, self-determination-loving, conservative, freedom-loving individuals and their businesses out of the restrictive political boundaries into Free Illinois? And to give the devil his due (the weasels that vote against guns must live somewhere), would Chicago economically and socially benefit by an influx of hoplophobic, left-wing, cradle-to-grave socialist libtards yearning to live in a land where laws totally disarm the criminal element so successfully?<br />
<br />
Strictly an intellectual exercise, I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other, myself. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' /><br />
