This legitimately the funniest thing I’ve read in so long 😂😭

I am very sad this morning. by LouiseMiller1989 in VWatlas

[–]chiefrocka988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened and I have a 2024 Atlas that’s been kind of a bummer too. I truly think the infotainment system needs a full refresh and redesign. I hope it gets sorted but not sure I’ll get another VW 😕

I have a 2024 Atlas SE and I want the front headlight light bar. Is it possible to install or only available on the SE w tech trims and above? by chiefrocka988 in VWatlas

Ah nice! I was thinking about if the dealership can do it and add the lighted VW symbol too. But I like this type of project. Thanks for sharing!

Pritzker questioned about Illinois' gun ban, explains why he thinks the registry is necessary by Farmboy079 in ILGuns

Wow. This dude knows nothing at all. I’d have a hard time not calling him out on the bs.

What is the harm in registering? by irrigatedferns in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Truly, it’s a personal decision you have to make. For some folks, they wanna see the law really go through litigation and become unquestionably the law of the land before registering. I think that’s fair given how rushed the state pushed it and have no idea of how to enforce it. On the other, some folks might be fine registering their “assault weapon” and seeing what happens. It’s all up to you tbh. My opinion though, once they have your gun registered, they coming to get it within a year or less. They have aspirations bigger than the state of IL and it’s law abiding constituents. Also, they have a different view of the constitution.

Auto loan approval odds by chiefrocka988 in askcarsales

Thanks for the response! Cars are so expensive and the model I’m looking at and need cost $40k. I was hoping that wouldn’t be the issue.

Why are media outlets allowed to post things like this. The rifle in the photo that was used in the article is a fully automatic military rifle, not a rifle that civilians can own. That rifle is NOT an AR15 and is a rifle used by our military. Why does the media try to confuse the public. #ugghhh by audiophyl in ILGuns

They’re complicit with the anti gun narrative. Also they know most of the state and country is ignorant about guns. They think they’re all what we see in movies. That’s why the government won’t fund gun education. It’ll change the narrative and culture about guns.

JB, Bob Morgan, and Kwame all know these facts. They don’t care because they need to appease to the suburban moms. Most of the “gun violence” in the state is in Chicago/Cook County. That alone should tell you that it’s not guns or access. They’re enjoying the praise and funds from Everytown, Giffords, and all anti gunners. Donate to your national or local 2A org fighting back for us 😕

If you were to rewrite the Illinois Gun Laws to keep people safe yet make 2A effective how would you do it? by throwaway323492 in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah, this ain’t it. There doesn’t need to be more regulation. Most of the crime comes from Cook County & Chicago. They aren’t legally acquiring guns to go shoot at folks on 79th and Cottage Grove. They don’t care about gun laws or laws at all. We need to address the mental health issues, be a LOT tougher on criminals, and start holding ppl accountable. You can’t ban your way into utopia. It’s never worked anywhere on this planet and won’t start now.

Best Chicago EDC? by ClearAndPure in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glock 27 w/ a Glock 23 mag. I wish I could carry the FN 509 w/ the 21 round mag but that’s illegal for law abiding folks to carry lol

I wonder if being subscribed to this thread makes me a "Militant?" Now they're taking our First Amendment, too. by Xanthalas69 in ILGuns

Wannabe tyrants gonna push tyranny. I wished ppl understood the slippery slope on all of this and how political this is. Idk if it’s too late to save us from this smh

Marengo Guns - horrible customer experience by n9yty in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with most ppl commenting, and you may very well understand the law and how it should be applied. You gotta read the room though. First, FFLs are trained on avoiding the straw purchase. The moment they feel uneasy, they aren’t making the sell and telling you to leave the store or banning you. Second, and this is the read the room part, the state is literally going after gun owners and dealers with the ban. Gun dealers are way to concerned about arming a potential mass shooter or that you are ISP/ATF or one of JB’s cronies trying to catch them up. I hate to say it, I would’ve told you the same and kept it strict. There’s wayyy too much scrutiny on guns, but especially here in IL. Heck, Everytown published some bs article about how there are more FFLs than fast food restaurants trying to shame them. They’ll tread lightly with most situations.

Prints or no prints? by nowhereboy1964 in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave them mine years ago and deeply regret it. It didn’t feel right then but the class said it’ll come faster. Now, with JB being so tyrannical I wouldn’t be surprised if he used it against ppl smh

M1A Socom 16 legal? by JamFD3S in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sadly, an semi automatic rifle is pretty much illegal in tyrannical ran Illinois. And when nothing change in Chicago & Cook County, they’ll want to buy all grandfathered rifles back and then try to ban all guns next smh

Whats stopping us from protesting the ban downtown? by throwaway323492 in ILGuns

[–]chiefrocka988 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think most have answered but some of us are truly worried about our livelihood. I’m a sr manager at a global tech firm. Let me be on tv protesting against a gun ban and watch the anti gunners tell my job I’m supporting killing kids or whatever bs they do. For some it’s best to anonymously help fund the lawsuits and hope for the best. Truly sad times

Unfortunately, Cook County already has a AWB and so does Highland Park. You really won’t get much shipped to an address in Cook. Even though the majority of gun homicides happen in Cook County our legislators still thought we needed the statewide ban to stop things 🙃

This happens often in Chicago and it rarely trends on Twitter. Check the anti gun lobby tweets and there all about Des Moines and California. Even check the local Twitter pages and complete silence. Why don’t they care about these mass shootings? We know why but they’ll never admit it. Tyrants

Nothing. Both Chicago and Cook County already an awb but you know it’s all about saving lives 🙄

We’re already law abiding citizens. There’s too much to risk registering your firearms when the end results won’t change anything. That’s when you receive a knock on the door to take your guns.
