Hey /k/
Living in chicago, under 21, just turned 18, looking forward to getting FOID, and legally being able to purchase a gun. So I am filling out the app, going along fine, actually one of the easier governmental apps to fill out, when I hit this one section, this one fucking section. A parental fucking affadavit. Without my parents consent, I cannot get a gun license in Illinois, its impossible. And my parents are pretty fucking liberal, they would never sign the form. Whoever designed this rule deserves to be fucking fired. So /k/, one question:
wat do?
get parents to sign it anyway
tell them you want to get into hunting
hunting is a socially acceptable reason

>Have to be 21 to buy your own gun
>A parental fucking affadavit. Without my parents consent, I cannot get a gun license in Illinois, its impossible.
This is to keep teenage thug niggers with no fathers from getting guns.

Fake a death certificate?
Son, we recieved your application and after review determined your parents are not dead
>To me they are, those dirty Murica hating commies.
Call and ask, maybe sue or something I dunno
Or move
I'm totally fine with you not being able to buy a gun. If society deems you cannot be trusted to buy your own alcohol, you shouldn't be able to buy your own firearm. Of course, I think you should be able to buy a drink at 18, like most countries, but that's besides the point. I think the age for each should line up, whatever it may be.

Does it just means a signature?

>I believe that "society" will make the right decision.
>But not this decision. They were wrong on this. Also, the first decision is based off of the wrong decision.
I think you should take the time to sit down, cross reference all your beliefs, and get rid of discrepancies like this. Because there's probably a lot more.

Move to Northwest Indiana you fucking retard
>>29749100
>Move to Ohio,
>establish residency - (only think that takes 30-90 day iirc)
>buy as many long guns as you want
>Turn 21, start buying handguns too
No parent signature required...

Git tae fuck, literally the politics of autism

This is not bad advice. Or convince your parents. Or emancipate yourself.

I wish we could just make 21 the proper adult age again. A high school diploma doesn't get you shit.

residency = in the state with the intent to make a home
proof of residency = residency plus any combination of -government- issued identifying documents which show your photo, name, and address.
Tax bills, vehicle registration, drivers license, non-drivers photo ID, concealed carry permit, et cetera.

There's nothing adult about an 18 year old.
