In a display of valor and quick action, Chicago police officers on March 9, 2026, confronted a dangerous suspect driving a white Mercedes linked to an earlier expressway shooting near Interstate 290 and Austin Avenue. The vehicle, identified by its license plate through vigilant monitoring by the Harrison District operations…
You are not powerless when it comes to “lobbying” judges to reconsider overly compassionate rulings in considering whether or not to release a perp under “No Cash Bail.” “How?” you ask. I’m glad you asked. Everyone loves positive publicity and kudos. Compliments and positive remarks make us feel good, especially…
Illinois' gun control laws are a deliberately nightmarish maze of red tape designed to discourage law-abiding citizens from exercising their rights. But Qwentin Howard? He played by every single absurd rule. FOID card? Check. Concealed carry license? Check. This guy jumped through hoops that would make a circus lion tap…

Sigh. Darren Bailey is steamrolling the pack for the Republican nomination for Governor.

Today we present another masterpiece of taxpayer-funded theater, starring the finest minds in Lake in the Hills, Illinois law enforcement. Administrators and politicians will no doubt hail this as peak heroism—brave officers risking life and limb in the war on... loose ammo. Because nothing screams "imminent threat" like a 20-year-old…
We have a very special guest speaker at our March 12th GSL Quincy meeting. William Kirk, President of Washington Gun Law, will join us. Kirk is one of the nation’s leading Second Amendment advocates and has been educating citizens nationwide about their rights and obligations related to the inalienable right…
With the attack on Iran that pretty much decapitated that nation of its long-time leadership, we have to be careful in America. And Americans serving overseas need to be cautious as well, both those working and vacationing. Yeah, this would be a bad time to be an American tourist in…
