My opinion only Wes, but it is a mistake, IMTS is a very worthwhile event to attend. There are a lot of worthwile things to do with my time. If IMTS comes to Michigan, maybe it will make the grade. I've been to some trade shows at Cobo in Detroit over the years. You see neat things, collect and trade a lot of biz cards and get a bunch of junk mail. I'm hoping the Heller case along with the McDonald case brings sanity to Chigago gun laws. I really don't care about carrying in the show since Michigan has a restriction on carrying depending on the size of the venue. I care about the rest of the stay. I've been in places where the good part of town turns in to the bad part of town in just a block or two. Something I wouldn't know about until it was too late if something goes wrong. Chicago isn't a safe city. Wes Wes -- "Additionally as a security officer, I carry a gun to protect government officials but my life isn't worth protecting at home in their eyes."

Well, that is better. d8-) My old girlfriend from Wilmette, at 18, could have told you how to get around Chicago without running into trouble. But if it's a personal boycott, then, as Iggy says, it's too bad but that's your prerogative. Jersey Boy would walk around Chitown without a piece? Ballsy. Paranoid freakishness seems to be rising on the right. -- Ed Huntress |
