[font=Arial, sans-serif]EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif] [/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]We, the ISRA Staff, Officers, and Directors want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. While our struggle to protect the Second Amendment in Illinois has been and will continue to be difficult, we still have a lot to be thankful for.[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />

[font=Arial, sans-serif]The Hyatt Gun Shop in Wilkinson, North Carolina wanted to advertise gun safes using Facebook. They were shut down by Facebook with a curt, snotty message. There were no guns mentioned, nor were there any pictures of guns anywhere in the ad they were putting on Facebook. For all of you Facebook lovers, I want to let you know they are anti-gun. So much for free speech; remember free speech only exists for those who own or control the media, not you or me.[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif] [/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]As we head into the upcoming legislative session, we must remember that Bloomberg, Soros, and other left-wing billionaires are going to remain dangerous. Moms Demanding Action are trying to ban guns everywhere they can. They are a constant, well financed threat.[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif] [/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
[font=Arial, sans-serif]The Holiday Season is bearing down on us like an express train. How about avoiding some of the Black Friday mayhem and give the gift of an ISRA membership to someone? A Life Membership would really be nice, either for you or someone special. Check us out online or call the office between the hours of 8:30a.m. and 4:30p.m. We will be closed on Friday, November 28th.[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />

[font=Arial, sans-serif]As of November 25th, total paid applications for Illinois Concealed Carry Licenses are 98,572, with 85,447 active CCL's.[/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />

[font=Arial, sans-serif]I am thankful for many things - my family, the great ISRA staff, and members like you![/font][/font][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]<br />
