New Illinios Law Requires Photo ID To Buy Drain Cleaner
This is how you're loosing your liberty in the USA.
One piece of ID at a time. ==================================== New Law Requires Photo ID To Buy Drain Cleaner January 5, 2012 6:34 PM CHICAGO (CBS) – A new state law requires those who buy drain cleaners and other caustic substances to provide photo identification and sign a log. It’s getting a rough reception from customers and merchants alike although perhaps none more than a cashier at Schroeder’s True Value Hardware in Lombard. “They’re not very happy about it at all,” said Don Schroeder, one of the store’s owners. “One of the customers actually threatened the (cashier) and threatened to throw the acid on her.” LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio’s Bob Roberts reports http://cbschicago.files.wordpress.co...hu_mixdown.mp3 Although the customer did not make good on the threat, and no one called police, other employees of Schroeder’s said they would call police immediately if any similar threat is made. The law, which took effect Sunday, requires those who seek to buy caustic or noxious substances, except for batteries, to provide government-issued photo identification that shows their name and date of birth. The cashier then must log the name and address, the date and time of the purchase, the type of product, the brand and even the net weight. State Rep. Jack Franks (D-Woodstock) obtained passage of the new law following attacks in which drain cleaner was poured on two Chicago women, badly scarring them. “So that’s who I have to call,” Schroeder said. He said that when he called his local legislator, the legislator claimed not to know about the new law. Neither, he said, did other retailers in the area. He said he and other store personnel had to call to a number of stores before they could get details. Non-compliance results in fines: $150 for the first offense, $500 for the second and up to $1,500 for the third and subsequent violations. Schroeder estimated that there are “easily” 30 or more products in the store that must be reported when sold. Jewel-Osco has removed the few items it carried from its shelves, but Schroeder said he does not have that option as a hardware store. He said he does not believe that the precautions written into the bill will prevent such crimes from occurring. “How are they going to find out, by asking every customer, what kid might have done that? It’s not going to solve any problems,” Schroeder said. “It’s not going to cure anything.” Link to story: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2012/01/...drain-cleaner/ |

Couple of years ago, Walmart checked my age to buy a brick of .22's. I was only a kid in my late 60's at the time. Then there was K-mart that wanted to know if I was over 17 to buy a bottle of doe pee lure. When I gave the clerk a birth date that said I would be in my 40's, the women in back of me at the cashier's line damn near fell on the floor laughing. |

Yeha and it always works so well. I mean having to show ID to buy Sudafed has solved that meth problem. I initially assumed the meth problem was the reason for this restriction on drain cleaner, since that is another chemical that is commonly used to make meth. Back when I worked for a seed company, we used to sell 50 lb and 100 lb sacks of ammonium nitrate to whoever came in and asked for it. We'd joke about how it could be used to make bombs. Thanks to Tim McVeigh and his fellow terrorists, several states imposed restrictions on its sale, and the feds have been moving to do the same. OTOH, it's perfectly legal in my state to purchase syringes without a prescription, but that hasn't stopped Walgreens and a couple other chains from arbitrarily setting their own rules requiring a prescription before they'll sell them. When they pulled that on me, I asked why their company decided to regulate syringe sales when the gov't said they didn't have to. They just shrugged, I just took my business to the competition across the street, who had no issues about selling me a legal product. |

Thanks to Tim McVeigh and his fellow terrorists, several states imposed restrictions on its sale, and the feds have been moving to do the same. incidentally,ammonium nitrate fertilizer has been changed to make it useless for bombmaking.IIRC,they added sulfur and coated the prills. -- Jim Yanik jyanik at localnet dot com |

When they checked his vehicle they found he had an old ammo can in the trunk that he used to store some small tools. Apparently it violated some Canadian munitions act because it once held ammunition... |

And we don't provide fingerprints to get drivers licenses. What state requires fingerprints for DL? According to these: http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=360357 http://groups.google.com/group/misc....5d0b4be373171d As of 2003/2004: California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Texas. West Virginia asks for a fingerprint, but you can decline. Seems that Kentucky also requires it. According to this: http://clpex.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1082&p=8454 Oklahoma also requires (or did require?) finger prints. Colorado also requires them. I took a bit of an interest in this idea that in the US, that some levels of gov't was requiring fingerprints of it's otherwise law-abiding citizens back when an Oregon lawyer was charged by the FBI for the Madrid train bombings in 2004: http://community.seattletimes.nwsour...ug=mayfield25m ------------- A federal judge yesterday cleared Portland attorney Brandon Mayfield of ties to the Madrid train bombings after the FBI made the stunning admission that it erred when analyzing a copy of fingerprints. The flawed case against Mayfield raises new concerns about the reliability of FBI procedures used in fingerprint forensic science. In making the link between Mayfield and a blue plastic bag containing detonators found near a Madrid train station, FBI officials relied on a digital copy of prints that Jordan said was of "substandard quality." Mayfield said he suspected authorities had him under surveillance and entered his home in the days before his arrest under the "sneak and peek" search warrants allowed by the Patriot Act. Mayfield said he and his wife noticed that a deadbolt lock they don't use had been locked and found other signs that someone had been in their home. ------------- I found it strange that the FBI would have on record the fingerprints of an Oregon lawyer, and that his prints were (mis)identified as being a match for the ones found on the Madrid bomb evidence. At the time I asked in a few forums how the FBI would have someone's fingerprints - and was told that some US states require fingerprints when you obtain driver's licenses. |

This is how you're loosing your liberty in the USA. One piece of ID at a time. ==================================== New Law Requires Photo ID To Buy Drain Cleaner January 5, 2012 6:34 PM CHICAGO (CBS) – A new state law requires those who buy drain cleaners and other caustic substances to provide photo identification and sign a log. It’s getting a rough reception from customers and merchants alike although perhaps none more than a cashier at Schroeder’s True Value Hardware in Lombard. “They’re not very happy about it at all,” said Don Schroeder, one of the store’s owners. “One of the customers actually threatened the (cashier) and threatened to throw the acid on her.” LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio’s Bob Roberts reports http://cbschicago.files.wordpress.co...hu_mixdown.mp3 Although the customer did not make good on the threat, and no one called police, other employees of Schroeder’s said they would call police immediately if any similar threat is made. The law, which took effect Sunday, requires those who seek to buy caustic or noxious substances, except for batteries, to provide government-issued photo identification that shows their name and date of birth. The cashier then must log the name and address, the date and time of the purchase, the type of product, the brand and even the net weight. State Rep. Jack Franks (D-Woodstock) obtained passage of the new law following attacks in which drain cleaner was poured on two Chicago women, badly scarring them. “So that’s who I have to call,” Schroeder said. He said that when he called his local legislator, the legislator claimed not to know about the new law. Neither, he said, did other retailers in the area. He said he and other store personnel had to call to a number of stores before they could get details. Non-compliance results in fines: $150 for the first offense, $500 for the second and up to $1,500 for the third and subsequent violations. Schroeder estimated that there are “easily” 30 or more products in the store that must be reported when sold. Jewel-Osco has removed the few items it carried from its shelves, but Schroeder said he does not have that option as a hardware store. He said he does not believe that the precautions written into the bill will prevent such crimes from occurring. “How are they going to find out, by asking every customer, what kid might have done that? It’s not going to solve any problems,” Schroeder said. “It’s not going to cure anything.” Link to story: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2012/01/...drain-cleaner/ OK, the news media makes their living selling commercial time, to sell that they have to have viewers, crying mothers are good for grabbing viewers so that is what they do at least per newscast..., then the public demands something ought to be done about what caused the mom to bawl her eyes out on the 6PM news,... and soon there is another new law. With this latest Shotgun Sarah news don't be surprised if can get a law requiring single mom's to have a double barrel 12 gauge in their trailer home. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/01/04...cher-on-phone/ |
