Illinois Freedom Caucus raises new questions about noncitizen police officer – Center Square

“The very first question that you’re asked when you apply for a FOID card is, ‘Are you a United States citizen,’ and now they’re pointing to a 2024 [Department of Justice] memo under the Biden administration saying that he’s allowed to carry a firearm while he’s on duty,” state Rep. Adam Niemerg said. “Now you have a noncitizen with police powers over the citizenry of the state of Illinois given a roundabout back door to violate the FOID card act and break the Constitution and the laws we have in the state of Illinois to carry a firearm.”

Get used to overweight females and casually dressed dudes with tattoos and dreadlocks as LEO’s. They represent the holistic police force your overlords want. Maybe they should promote the “ peacekeepers “ , another one of which was caught possessing an illegal firearm. Chief Wiggam could take “Yes Man” Snellings place.

And guess what else, he’s exempt from all the firearm and magazine bans that were unlawfully put in place. It’s good to be an illegal in Illinois you have more rights than a law abiding citizen
