FBI agents can show, I do not know, put a show. But the fact that our local law protects everyone in the state in Illinois. Our state soldiers protect any person in Illinois, and not that you are not from Federal Angates, and therefore you are not from the state legislators. The legislators cannot be arrested. ”
