I have an Alabama Carry Permit but it expired in February. Being that I live in my semi truck (no residence anywhere) I can't get a new CCW anywhere.....not that it matters as Illinois will not honor any other states CCW and you can not get a Non-Resident Permit in Illinois. Nor can I get an Illinois FOID (Firearm Owners ID) Card since I do not LIVE IN ILLINOIS with a FIXED VERIFIABLE ADDRESS.
Additionally, the gun was in my HOME and PERSONAL VEHICLE (when I am on the road my employer allows me to use the truck for PERSONAL CONVEYANCE) at all times so I don't really know why they arrested me and charged me with FELONY "AGGRAVATED UNLAWFUL USE of a WEAPON".
God does that ever BLOW. You didn't USE a weapon. Unless they call showing someone using.
Yeah it is complete BS, very expensive BS. Lawyer wants $3500 to take the case.....and I don't have it....I started a Campaign trying to raise the money but no luck yet.
