Illinois specifically discriminates against orphans: parental consent is required for any gun possession between ages 18 and 20. That is significantly crazier than even the Soviet laws, and a good indication of how far the state politicians and judges are overdue for a vulture feeding as guests of honor.
Does this apply to 18 and 19 year-old GI’s and Marines in A-stan?
When I was active duty in IL at age 18-20, I still had to have signed parental approval for a FOID.
You can get an abortion without parental consent, but you can’t legally defend yourself.
Well, you CAN, but only with a note from Mommy in your hand.
I’d LOVE to know how the court rationalized this driveling idiocy. On the other hand, I’m not sure that the blood vessels in my head could take the pressure.
Don’t take it too hard. Insanity is what it is. Anyway; the insane WANT you to be upset– It brings you closer to the Dark Side, where they dewll. Like vampires, they bite you (emotionally) and then feed on your misery.
“What’s troubling you is the nature of my game”
Don’t feed the vampires! Starve them.
Nothing pains a psyphopath more than seeing contented people, cooperating, being productive, minding their own business and reaping the rewards of their labors of love. They feel mocked. It is more than they can bear, and they’ll attempt to snuff it out as fast as they can. They react to you like an arachnophobe seeing a big spider near their face; “Eeek! Kill it! Kill it!” Panic.
Their life’s work is to derail you, to prevent you from living the bright, innocent life you were meant to live. They do it by infecting you with their disease.
Once so infected, you become a carrier, infecting others as you stumble through life in a fog of irritation, anger, frustration and dread. Like a Typhoid Mary you spread it everywhere you go, multiplying the number of vampires, and it snow-balls into all-out destruction in war.
The only antidote is to get back on path.
I know you we were somewhat tongue-in-cheek regarding your blood vessels, but there it is anyway.
Let the insane ones panic. Ignore them. Stand up for principles every time. They will destroy themselves like lemings.
… and yet they get to vote.
Just think, at that age I was serving in the military.
Yet Chicago wants a note from your Mommy to let you own a gun.
