You need to change your ways and get that chip off your shoulder.

Based on what you have said, I'd say you might be disqualified from getting a FOID card.
Pretty much as long as you are eligible to purchase a weapon, you are eligible for a FOID card.
What will exclude you from obtaining a FOID card:
Felony conviction
Commit a crime where a firearm was used
Active restraining orders
Domestic battery
The one that I am not sure of is the last question of the application, "Have you ever been adjudicated a delinquent minor for the commission of an offense that if committed by an adult would be a felony?". Depending on the significance of this question, it might disqualify you based on your assault with a knife charge.
Personally, I would call the firearms unit of the ISP and ask. If you lie on your application (even inadvertantly) and get a card, you will probably get yourself in deel sh*t if ISP catches up with you.
Good Luck to you

Dude stay as far away from firearms as possible as you are just going to get into more trouble with it.

You need to contact an attorney because any answer you get here will be hearsay.
