[00:19] DaemonFC Were Chicago its own State, it would have the worst "gun violence" statistics in the nation. [00:20] DaemonFC How do you get there? [00:20] DaemonFC The regulatory framework does not do much because it doesn't regulate criminals.

[00:20] DaemonFC Few of them get caught and the ones that get punished just do it again the minute they're out on bail, probation, or parole. [00:20] DaemonFC So it barely even slows them down. [00:21] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: NICS is not a database of mentally ill people. It's a database of whatever States and cities have put in it. [00:22] DaemonFC It has about 4 million records of mental illness prohibitors in a nation of over 340 million people (counting illegal immigrants), and several can be about the same person.

[00:25] DaemonFC The police are much more likely to charge a wobbler as a felony if the suspect is black. [00:25] DaemonFC That's part of the reason why blacks are more likely to get a felony, but they also commit most of the crimes that are GCA disqualifiers. [00:25] TR News OSINT in 90 seconds.

Mind reading on TV | Pen Test Partners [00:26] DaemonFC A "wobbler" means that either the statute itself permits charging it as a felony or misdemeanor -or- more broadly, when a prosecutor could indict you but decides to make it a misdemeanor instead for whatever reason. [00:27] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: In STATE OF ILL, domestic violence can be a felony or a "really bad misdemeanor". As a "really bad misdemeanor", if you get convicted you are GCA-prohibited for life and you can't expunge it and you will do 100% of the jail time. [00:27] DaemonFC Which makes it unusual for a misdemeanor. [00:27] DaemonFC It's a Class A Misdemeanor but with "felony-like" consequences. [00:28] DaemonFC Furthermore, if he is convicted of this or pleads guilty to battering me (as a normal Class A Misdemeanor), the court will enter an order of protection making it illegal to come near me or contact me for at least two years, maybe 4-5, and that is another prohibitor all by itself.

[00:30] DaemonFC Under the FOID Act, you are not allowed to have a gun (although you are allowed to have a FOID Card) on public property or a public way, or in a vehicle on a public way, for 2 years after the OOP expires. [00:30] DaemonFC Or else it is Felony Unlawful Use of a Weapon. [00:30] DaemonFC So you can purchase a gun, but as soon as you leave private property with it, you're a felon. [00:30] TR News Judge Certifies Apple App Store Class Action https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2024-02-02/judge-certifies-apple-app-store-class-action [00:30] TR Bot stream 1 was not closed cleanly: INTERNAL_ERROR (err 2) ( status 0 @ https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2024-02-02/judge-certifies-apple-app-store-class-action ) [00:31] DaemonFC So what you would have to do is have another FOID card holder who doesn't have that transport it to your home and it must not leave your home again until the 2 years after the OOP expires. [00:32] DaemonFC Not having a FOID Card would also be an offense. [00:32] DaemonFC Either a Class A Misdemeanor if you were eligible but just chose not to have one. [00:32] DaemonFC A felony with up to 5-7 years in prison if you were not eligible and that's why you didn't have one.

[00:33] DaemonFC So he gets off on probation and buys another gun on the way home from court. :) [00:34] schestowitz[TR2] ok, whatever [00:34] DaemonFC So we have the same "gun violence" as Florida. [00:34] schestowitz[TR2] you interjected race into it [00:34] schestowitz[TR2] so ii stopped r eading there [00:34] DaemonFC It's a racist set of laws. [00:34] DaemonFC The background of the law is that an NRA terrified of black rioters in the 60s pushed for these laws. [00:35] DaemonFC You can't honestly talk about the gun control framework in the US without mentioning it was a bunch of Nazis and the Klan that pushed for them as a way to suppress black people during the Civil Rights Era.

[00:36] DaemonFC They didn't want him that bad so they failed to enter two MENTAL HEALTH entries that should have gone into NICS in 2019.

[00:38] TR News Lots of SPAM/hype/sponsored junk for Apples "Vision Pro"... trying to elevate sales of something that does not exist. Because demand has been slow. [00:38] DaemonFC But NICS should have stopped Crimo because the police were legally required to report a weapons removal and mental health stay and didn't. [00:38] TR News It took Apple almost a year to get 400,000 pre-orders. Slow. And low demand. [00:38] DaemonFC When they removed the weapons and put him in the mental hospital, it was NOT a voluntary stay. They used civil commitment on him, in 2019. [00:39] DaemonFC Why was this not in NICS? This did not occur in 1977. [00:39] TR News By comparison, iPhone stuff was selling at like 250 million per year. [00:39] DaemonFC State LAW says that the police and courts SHALL enter this, and not only that but they MUST go back to January of 1989! [00:39] DaemonFC He was 20 years old in 2021.

You pay your taxes every year and then they follow you around and "make something of it" on something they can show when there's something they don't like that you're doing which they can't get you for. [23:02] MinceR yeah [23:03] DaemonFC MinceR: I complain a lot about STATE OF ILL, but one thing the Demonrats actually did do for gun owners, by mistake, with the FOID Card system, is that if you pass FOID you're not on the "bad boys" list with NICS. So as long as your FOID Card is active, you know NICS doesn't have any prohibitors that would make it possible for the feds to charge you with a felony for filling out Form 4473 "wrong". [23:03] MinceR over here everyone the party state doesn't like is a "pedophile", and even people protecting pedophiles must be punished, but if someone close to the party state tries to protect pedophiles from being punished, they get pardoned by the president [23:03] DaemonFC It's a felony to not tell them something that they already know about you and did not tell you! [23:03] MinceR strange how that works [23:04] DaemonFC You have no other way of knowing whether the NICS check will be DENIED and have a cop showing up at your door in most States because only one of them has FOID and checks you with NICS every day. [23:04] DaemonFC And normally there is no other way to get your answer except buy gun, fill out 4473, and either they take your money and hand you the gun, or they tell you no gun and a cop shows up and you have your "other answer". [23:05] DaemonFC :) [23:05] DaemonFC MinceR: Isn't it swell that you can't just call the FBI and ask if you'd fail a NICS check? [23:05] DaemonFC But the State can through FOID, in fact they do check me every 24 hours because that's how FOID works. [23:05] DaemonFC So if you ever are in NICS, your FOID Card will be revoked within 1 day. [23:06] DaemonFC MinceR: Orbanistan sounds fun. [23:06] DaemonFC You did say the State is just one big party.
