CCW acknowledged as an option - by Chicago media?

Was listening to the NBC5 news program this morning, and they were discussing the generic topic of "gun violence" with a CPD rep and a community policing spokesperson. After talking about the value of gun buybacks, the host mentioned that while the public was used to hearing about people carrying guns being criminals, there had recently been a case where an intended victim had defended himself against a carjacker.

She actually asked if CCW was an option for people to consider, and to his credit, the CPD officer stated that it was, if people had options for safe storage and training.

A refreshing change after the years of Daley and Streetlights insisting all guns - and their owners - were bad

The Guns and Firearms have no gender, race, etc.

 

If in making what we consider to be a proper waving of the finger at the above listed groups........we would well not us but the Media and the CPD chiefs, would be pointing fingers at people of color, all shades and NOT be talking about in large part about the white segment of society.

 

And since we don't point out these differences in Chicago, read any article or listen to any report on the radio, and it's 2 men wearing jeans with red caps.

2 girls and 1 guy running south on blah blah blah st.

 

Can't be bothered with a specific description based on what race, ethnicity someone is.

And the populace just got more easy to control thanks to legal weed.

Marijuana is the opiate of the masses?

 

I look for a lot of snacks at dem rallies next year - that will seal the deal for a winning election outcome.

Yes imagine that

A still federally illegal drug not listed in the constitution and Illinois makes it legal with the stroke of a pen!

And yet firearms which ARE in the constitution are considered the bad juju in Illinois!

And so the universe turns..........

Common sense? Sorry, not allowed.

The term "common sense" in any way applying to Ill-annoys? ROFL

Just this morning in today's Chicago Tribune (7/2/19) is an article on crime in Chicago and the head of the CPD is quoted as saying that shootings happen because someone decided to carry a gun with him that day. That if the gun was left home the shooting would not happen. I guess some guns just get itchy in your pocket and make you want to shoot people. Of course he doesn't say that maybe some parts of his city are so dangerous that it makes sense to be prepared to defend yourself if needed. Nothing has really changed over the years regarding the attitude of the powers that be in this state, and especially in the city of Chicago regarding guns and law abiding citizens. Johnson did say one thing that made sense, and that was if someone is arrested for a crime and used a gun, the bond requirements and punishments need to be tougher than they currently are. Right now the shooters being arrested are without a doubt back on the streets a lot quicker than those that were shot.
