Self-defense May Be Legal in Chicago

Reporters seem confused. Man wounded when he shoots at a concealed carry holder, and that guy shoots back

You can file this under "Another Failure of the Victim-selection Process."

West Lawn is one of 77 neighborhoods in Chicago, on the SW side of the city. It is notable for being one the areas included in the South Side Irish description, even if not the most prominent. (There are parts of the city, where even as recently as the 1980s, you would probably be asked, "What parish are you from?" if you ventured into a neighborhood bar.)

Chicago police said the suspect, 21, approached the concealed carry license holder on West Ford City near South Kostner in West Lawn around 6:22 p.m.

The suspect opened fire.

The 24-year-old concealed carry license holder shot back and hit the suspect in the thigh.

The concealed carry holder apparently had to surrender his legal firearm, though that is not explicitly stated, because the reporter seems confused about the guy who defended himself not being arrested.

Chicago police said the victim is not in custody.

In what world would "the victim" be in custody? Oh, that's right, in the communist utopia that exists in the reporters minds.

But then "FOX 32 Digital Team" are a bunch of reporters in The People's Republic of Chicago, the ideas of individual action, individual responsibility, and individual liberty never enter into their Communist world view.
