Illinois concealed carry still a long way from reality

Article sums it up pretty well. The sad reality is that we are still a long ways off from this being law and us getting our carry conceal permits in IL. It probably will be at least one year.

That's a good attention getter for his readers (Missouri and down-state residents), but I don't see it playing out that way. However, even if it does, we will be permitted to carry soon, soon being a relative term. 
This old guy's opinion.

Illinois Congressman Bost wants Governor Quinn to enact new concealed carry legislation
http://www.wpsdlocal6.com/home/ticke...210299021.html
There are four things that can happen.
1. The Governor can sign the bill.
2. The Governor can take no action and in 60 days the bill becomes law but that would push us passed the July 8th day. It is conceivable the court could grant another extension.
3. The Governor could veto the bill.
4. The Governor could use an Amendatory Veto (AV). Number 3 and 4 would mean it would be October 22nd before an override of the Governor's veto could happen.
No more concealed-carry delay

WASHINGTON (AP) — Prosecutors are recommending four years in prison for former congressman Jesse Jackson Jr., following his guilty plea this year on criminal charges that he engaged in a scheme to spend $750,000 in campaign funds on personal items.
The government is also recommending that Jackson pay $750,000 in restitution to the campaign.
Court papers filed in the case say Jackson used campaign money to buy items that included a $43,350 gold-plated men's Rolex watch and $9,587.64 worth of children's furniture.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on July 3 along with his wife, Sandra. She pleaded guilty to filing false joint federal income tax returns that understated the income the couple received.
Jackson is a Democrat. He resigned his Illinois congressional seat in November.
