Effingham County a ‘sanctuary’ for Illinois gun owners; citizens ‘tired of being pushed around’

SSgt GG-15 RET Jim Lint As the article states; It's time to take a stand. I am glad that some are pushing back against the ridiculous laws that are being forced on citizens.

Awesome, good for those citizens of Effingham county.

I'm not a subscriber to the washington times and I'm not going to turn off ad blocking. Here is the AP/tribune article.

Has anyone been to Effingham? I used to drive through that county and the town every month as I traveled to my hometown, Chicago, from both FT Riley and FL Leavenworth KS. They have one of the largest crosses I've seen in the Midwest visible from I-70 as you drive thru town. They are part of the very conservative areas of Illinois. So this doesn't surprise me at all.
