Federal Lawsuit Takes Aim At Illinois' Ban On Concealed Guns
Two private citizens and the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) have filed a Federal lawsuit challenging Illinois' prohibition of the carrying of firearms for self-defense.
According to The Associated Press, Illinois residents Michael Moore of Champaign and Charles Hooks of Percy, along with the SAF, filed the suit on May 12, eight days after a measure that would have allowed residents to carry concealed weapons failed in the State Legislature. Moore is a former corrections officer and Hooks is a farmer, the news provider reported.
