Western Springs and La Grange members of an anti-gun violence group are asking area businesses to post signs depicting No Guns Allowed.

A new state law allows residents to carry concealed weapons, pending approval of permit applications through the Illinois State Police. The first such permits are expected to be issued beginning March 1.

“I prefer to shop in places where I feel safe,” said Katherine Mudd, a Western Springs member of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. She has children, ages 7 and 9, and has been handing out postcards to area businesses.

What, no children of 23 and 25? Obviously these asshats need to go back and re-read the messaging guide. "Gun safety advocacy" group. Geez. Give em a guide and they still can't get it right. For me, I'd feel safer knowing that there might be someone on site armed. Just in case.

They should make themselves little “No Guns” pins.

...and then they should wear those pins late at night while walking through neighborhoods that precious, rich, White women like them never go through.

You know... Experience a little of life as seen through someone else’s eyes. Like, let’s say, the eyes of a poor woman of color who can’t afford a $900 handgun for protection, let alone qualify for a carry permit.

“I prefer to shop in places where I feel safe,”

What a useless idiot. If all you care about with Liberty is to "feel safe" than there truly is no place for you. Does she honestly believe a sign will stop a criminal? How much more brain dead can she be?

Liberals actually believe that no one should have a gun because some maniac might go off. Conservative know that is the reason to be armed.

“I prefer to shop in places where I feel safe,”

So do I. And Cabela's is probably the safest store in our area. I only wish they sold groceries.

“No guns” or “Gun-free zone” signs are partly what led to the mass murders at the Colorado theater and the Sandy Hook school. Perps intent on mass murder will always strike where defenseless people are.

Stupid-assed woman with her comment about “wanting to be in stores that are safe” typifies the idiocy that permeates the anti-gun mindset.

any business that posts that nonsense, should have those sign plastered all over their entrances and parking lots.

No Guns signs should mean financial suicide.

Channeling my “Inner Ted Nugent”, that walking, talking blonde joke is too ignorant and far too much of a Libtard to understand the obvious - Shootings never occur at gun ranges! Listen up, Blondie - the Founders considered it to be the right and duty of the citizen to be at all times armed.

As you are too cowardly to be armed, and therefore must depend on others to protect you, why do you want to disarm others and/or ban their guns?

Are you a closeted Commie? Or are you just acting out your ‘inner blonde”?

Every liberal knows that. It's obvious that someone who is intent on using violence will be completely stopped by a sign prohibiting firearms.

We should do the same with drugs.
We should make laws making drugs illegal so people would stop doing drugs.
Oh, wait.
