gearhoundsChicago woman with concealed carry permit fatally shoots armed robber
Short of metal detectors on public transportation, what’s to stop her from carrying her protection there in the future? If I was forced to use public transportation, especially after this incident, I wouldn’t be caught dead without a piece. Pun intended.

Klusk2What is carefully omitted are the words "Victim" and "Offender". I'm sure that the classification of the crimes committed would have added up to misdemeanors, had the "teen" survived. More than likely he would have received no punishment if he was in fact younger than 18. If he was 18, it would have been released on an I-Bond (signature only with a promise to show up to court) and no doubt received a light sentence if in fact he was found guilty. More than likely it would have been probation. Restorative justice is the flavor of today.

Yep.
If he's yet-unidentified and an autopsy is pending, how the hell do they know he's a "teen" in the first place?

The teen remained unidentified as of Tuesday evening.
When he is identified, you can be sure the Tribune will print the interview with his momma, how he was a good boy, turning his life around, blah, blah, blah. The usual liberal-slanted shit.

That neighborhood is all black. I worked there for about 10 years.
The blm is still here. Not as loud as they once were, but they’re still here. They’ll only protest if a white Cop shoots one of them.
No charges will be filed on her. The offender was 19.

Ah, just as I suspected. A 19 year old man/criminal was killed. But the media calls this man a teen. Typical.

Do you think she'll get any future "special attention" considering that she carries on public transportation? That prohibition is ridiculous, and I'd hate to see her harassed over it.

I want to know how she got a concealed carry permit in Chicago.
Tens of thousands have CCW permits and live in Chicago.
The CCW permit supersedes other carry violations. If your caught with a gun and DON'T have CCW permit it would be MUCH harsher punishment than if you have CCW permit. With the CCW permit you can't be charged with more than a misdemeanor. After 3 CCW violations you lose your CCW permit.
Getting caught with a gun on the bus and holding a CCW permit would get you a misdemeanor charge and probably a $150 ticket.
If I travel on public transportation in the city you can bet I will most likely roll the dice and bring my gun, I will gladly take the ticket and pay the fine. If I ever needed my weapon to defend against grave bodily harm or death, it would be a small price to pay.
having tens of thousands of people with CCW permits in Chicago is confusing me when
I hear that Chicago has some of the most restrictive gun laws and we use that fact to argue that gun control doesn't help the amount of gun violence in Chicago. Can you help me to understand this?
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

This is a perfect opportunity for the NRA and ISRA to challenge that bullshit law in Illinois. Have to strike while the sentiment for the victim is strong.

OK, but she'll need Thunderwear® for concealed carry.

With our new Dem,ultra lib,Billionaire Governor Pritzker and the dems controlling both the house and senate we are going to be bombarded with gun control laws. We can forget about advancing our gun rights it will be hard to keep what we now have. Magazine capacity limits for handguns were struck down as part of the CCW bill as well as many other restrictions.
If you live outside the Chicago area the gun laws in IL. are not too bad compared to MANY other states.
We have hundreds of thousands in the state with CCW permits. All advances made within the last 5 years.

eyrichPrinting is not a felony in Illinos.
From the actual law:
----------
"Concealed firearm" means a loaded or unloaded handgun carried on or about a person completely or mostly concealed from view of the public or on or about a person within a vehicle.

Under the circumstances, especially the positive publicity, I don't see the woman being prosecuted, but I doubt she'll get away with carrying on a Chicago City bus in the future. It's a really bad law, among the worst in the country, and the reason I haven't bothered to get a CC Permit myself.
Our CPD friends would know for sure, but I think printing is a felony if you're caught. Who needs that? It's bad enough the criminals are after you, but having to fear the police is outrageous.

fiasconvaI could be wrong but I'm assuming the shooter was also black. If not, it would have been blasted all over the national news outlets 24/7.
