I don't mean this post to sound like a stand-off between the southern and northern parts of the state. I realize we have supporters of the second ammendment in the Chicago area, and believe me,...I DON'T LIKE THE STATUS QUO ANY BETTER THAN THEY DO!!!
But, let's face the facts here. Living in Southern Illinois and living in Northern Illinois are two different things.
The vast majority of Southern Illinoisians are pro-second ammendment, while the vast majority of Northern Illinoisians are not. It's not because we don't have any support in the north, it's because the majority of our lawmakers and the anti-gun nuts live there.
Most Southern Illinoisians' would love to see ILLINOIS become 2 different states. Springfield, and everything north of becoming the state of NORTHERN ILLINOIS, with Springfield, as their capitol.
Everything south of Springfield should become SOUTHERN ILLINOIS, with Vandalia, as it's capitol, like it was during Abraham Lincoln's reign.
It's been a very longtime since ILLINOIS had a downstate Governor, and you won't find a lot of Northern lawmakers support here. They don't care about the people in Southern Illinois, they just want to govern us under Chicago laws and bilk us of our tax $$$DOLLARS$$$.
