Police: Customer with concealed carry license kills robber; 5 wounded in other shootingsA robbery was thwarted at a Southwest Side corner store Saturday night when a patron with a concealed carry license shot and killed an armed robber, authorities said. Citing preliminary information, police said a man walked into a store in the 2700 block of West 51st Street in the Gage Park neighborhood around 7 p.m., announced a robbery to an employee working behind the counter and displayed a handgun. Another employee came from the back of the store and the gunman pointed his weapon at her, police said. He then made her go to the back of the store, which also serves as a currency exchange. After that, a customer who was also inside the business pulled out a gun and opened fire at the robber, killing him, police said. The robber was believed to be in his 40s, police said. Police said the shooter has a valid concealed carry license and a valid firearm owner's identification card. At least five people have been wounded in other shootings across the city since Saturday night, police said: this warms my heart!  |

I'm sure it will be ignored, or just counted as more "gun violence" to push the narrative.

Our CC laws don't allow for individual municipalities/cities to ban CC. So chicago has concealed carriers. That being said, it's a nightmare trying to figure out where you can and can't carry in chicago though. For instance, no CC on public transportation, which is HUGE in chicago.

A life taken over material possessions? Oh teh noes!
Some thugs from a "rich and vibrant culture" robbed a pawn shop at Admiral and Memorial in Tulsa a few years ago. As instructed by company policy, all employees were completely obedient to the punks and let them have the money without any resistance. The punk-assed little shits headed for their car in the parking lot when one of the "aspiring rap artists" turned around at the exit, and with ZERO provocation, shot a 22 year old clerk dead at the counter for no reason other than the fact the clerk was white. Let those with ears, hear.

Yea you can tell they were being pissy over getting smacked into having a CHL  I am happy they put a provision for non res driving through Although whether or not I am doing anything different than I did for the last 10 years is not going to be discussed here |

When somebody points a gun at somebody else, it isn't about material possessions anymore, it is about the threat to life. ETA. It doesn't matter if he hasn't shot anybody yet. |

Thug was trying to get store employee(s) into the back. Local precedent for that being very bad, such as the 1993 Brown's Chicken massacre in Palatine, a Chicago suburb. Something like 7-10 people were killed.

For some reason I get the feeling that this incident and the recent one in Reading, PA discussed in another thread, won't fit the BLM narrative of racist shootings. Either the bad guys wil turn out to be some other ethnicity/minority and or the CCW holders will be minorities. Thusly ignored by the media and the cause, other that as stated to be used by the Brady Bunch as lesser victims of gun. Either way, the crimes they were committing and the issue of self defense will be rendered irrelevant.
ETA: So I stand corrected after the update. It will fit the BLM narrative and the family of the suspect is claiming disbelief and shock to the official account of the incident and demanding the CCW holder be charged. I did get the rendering his crimes irrelevant to the narrative.

Homicide by definition is the killing of a person by another person. Murder, manslaughter, culpable negligence etc. are crimes defined by statutes that require a specific intent or indifference to injury or life. |
