I have a friend who has his carry permit in TN...he was traveling thru Illinois...he had his weapon in his suitcase with his clothes...he wnet thru a road block...they ask if they could search his truck...he said yes...They found his little .25 beretta...handcuffed him and then searched his vehicle with a drug dog...They told him that having a load weapon in his vehicle constituted a Felony in Illinois...and that he could be put in jail for 24 hours before allowing him to post bail...They let him pass and gave him a ticket for have an uncased weapon....IS IT REALLY A FELONY IN ILLINOIS TO HAVE A LOADED WEAPON IN YOUR CAR?...that seem extreme...I thought this was America
