If they follow California's rules you'll still be a long ways from actually getting a permit. In my county it can take 9-12 months total.

Carrying a gun whether concealed or in the open is not all it is cracked up to be.

Definitely not for everyone.

I am not sure what that means, but there is certainly a lot of training that needs to happen when taking on the responsibility of having one on your person.

It can bu uncomfortable, and it requires keeping an eye out for the signs and and places where you are not allowed to carry.

There is also the issue of practice, and keeping the weapon clean.

I'm sure if you are ever approved for the permit in Il they will know what time you go to bed at night, what you ate for breakfast how you drive your car and on and on and on...... It's not going to be easy that's for sure. I will apply for one when they pass the law, not because I want to carry a gun everywhere I go. But because I want to see what they are going to say, the most I have ever done wrong is a few speeding tickets. So will see, I'm sure IL will end up in contempt of the court order anyway.....

Yes I agree Greg, I don't think that if I'm running to the store to get some bread and cookies that I need to carry my Glock! But on the other hand if I'm going to do a deal on a car (insert Craig's List or eBay here) and I'm not sure who I'm dealing with and have cash on hand, well I'll feel a lot safer with some protection!

Yes lots of training needs to go into not only carrying a gun but also owning a gun or guns.

True, there are times when it is very nice to have a gun but most often it is more of a burden. 90% of the time, mine is in the safe.

Even though I have my conceal and carry permit, I really don't have a desire to carry one around for some reason. some people do, but just seems like a hassle to me. I do like to shoot them though!!

Just because someone has a CC permit - doesn't mean they're walking around the mall with a weapon on their hip.

Personally -- I leave my guns locked up... but if I'm on a road trip - where I expect to be sleeping in weird roadside places -- or perhaps be broken down somewhere - I want my handgun "handy" somewhere. That means somewhere not out in the open or on my hip - unless I felt it was needed. If you're going to have a gun - not out in the open - then you need to have a CC in most states.
