      Onerous and unnecessary. I suspect the vast majority of shooting instigators are by unlicensed guns, and self-defense by licensed ones.

        When you're in fear for your life, and seconds count, remember, the police are only minutes away.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          If a shooting is purely self-defense, should a person go to jail for not having the FOID card?

            Of course not.

              Hell no! Because they live in IL though, I can see a fine for not having the card.
