I’ve had occasion to deal with the Illinois State Police Firearms Unit fairly recently to renew my FOID. I learned some rather interesting facts.
That unit is budgeted for 7 people. When I talked to them they had 3. The month I called them they had 90,000 renewals to process. The next month they had 100,000 and the month after that there were 150,000 up for renewal.
I spoke with the nicest woman who pulled my renewal to the “top of the pile” as it was about to expire. It’s no wonder this creep slipped through the system. The entire FOID system is stupid. It should be abolished entirely.

If I googled this right, FOID is required to own or carry a firearm in IL. And the bureaucracy to run it is budgeted for 7 people.
If so... assume this is by design. That libtarded officials thought they came up with a slick way to impair 2A rights. Am I right?
