Dr.
Suzanna Hupp is recognized worldwide as one of the
leading advocates for an individual's right to carry
a concealed weapon. In 1991, after leaving her gun
in her car in order to comply with the law, Suzanna
watched helplessly as both her parents, along with
21 others were gunned down in a mass shooting at a
local restaurant. As a survivor of this tragedy, her
impassioned calls for the right of citizens to
self-defense have thrust her into the national
debate on the right to keep and bear arms. Since the
Killeen massacre, she has testified numerous times
across the country for the restoration of the Second
Amendment.
Event
Details & Transportation
It is
important that we put our best foot forward and
present the best image of Illinois firearm owners -
friendly, courteous, and respectful of the other
attendees and our surroundings. Suggested
attire is casual/business casual. The rally is
outside on the plaza, bring sunscreen if you are so
inclined. There is a food court in the downstairs
portion of the Thompson Center if you need to grab a
quick bite before or after the event. We have been
instructed to keep the entrances to the Thompson
Center clear and also that we stay out of the street
and not cause a traffic hazard.

ways to get to the Thompson Center via public
transportation: CTA Trains and buses, Metra,
