8. Still no explanation of 200,000+ new FOID cards in Illinois

All in less than 2 years. From 1.5 million to 1.75 million

Just inconvenient facts?

My favorite was one claim, that; "Well those are just the people getting Concealed Carry permits that had to get a FOID card."

Maybe the Illinois State Police are just NRA shills?

Anything to keep that deeply held myth of fewer gun owners alive. Otherwise, their little belief system starts to go belly up and they have to accept they already lost the gun control debate about 5 years ago.
