Illinois concealed carry: http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/full...cSess=&Session

This is starting to get interesting.


Issuing authorities would have to prove why someone shouldn't receive a license.

Quote:
the Department shall have the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that the applicant would pose a danger to the applicant's self, another, or public safety, or would use a firearm unlawfully, if granted a license to carry a concealed firearm under this Act.
And...

Quote:
If the court decides that the reason for the denial was arbitrary, capricious, malicious, or without merit, the court shall award punitive damages.
Concerning reciprocity:
Quote:
The Department shall enter into reciprocal agreements with any other state whose requirements to obtain a license or permit is substantially similar to those requirements contained in Section 85.
