Illinois legislation, House Bill 3320 and Senate Bill 2279, seeks to impose financial liability on firearm manufacturers in response to the alarming rise in mass shootings.

For others, it’s a literal threat to their manhood. As with nearly everything on this good Earth, there are pros and cons, and many people unfairly condemn appendix carry without fully appreciating its benefits.
