Marksmanship is one of the best ways to teach youth respect for weapons, and at the same time remove…Read More the romantic fascination with guns.
I consider myself rather progressive and believe this would be a good program for ETHS for those that wanted to learn proper skills and be part of the team.
FYI... The rifles tend to be bolt action, classic design.

The US Government CMP program also uses "service rifles".....Garand, M1 Carbine and guess…Read More what AR-15 for the high school kids as well. ETHS had a rifle team for years before it was eliminated. I am a Certified NRA Instructor and would even be willing to commit some time if the interest was there. It is perhaps the BEST way to remove the mystique associated with firearms.

The writer of the post is illiterate....that is clear. The Evanston Police, in general, do a great…Read More job in this community. There ought be a new category created specifically for membership in a gang that has demonstrated committed acts of violence...it goes back to the first smart thing which Mark Kirk ever said which was locking up each and every one of the 18.5K members of the Gangster Disciples. The second thing that can be done is that each and every law abiding Evanston resident that is legally able to do so should avail themselves of the right to obtain a new Illinois Concealed Carry Permit for a handgun. An armed society is a polite society.
