Illinois is trying to make it harder for their residents.  Already you need
an Firearms Ownership ID Card in order to buy guns and ammo.  New legislation
will require an FOID holder to turn over every social media and discussion
forum account name and password so the state can monitor you for "red flags"
that indicate violent behavior.  This is alread a hot issue because it
violates due process of law, but it also treats those who are actually
obeying the law like they are criminals
