Don't Bring a Knife to a Gunfight

Armed self-defense is becoming a thing in Chicago. I don't expect the bad guys to get that memo. Woman fatally shoots knife-wielding man in Morgan Park - Chicago Sun-Times

Morgan Park is one of the 77 neighborhoods in Chicago; it is located on the far south side of the city.

The gun-hating part of the Left loves to go on about how if you own a gun, you are more likely to shoot someone you know than a perfect stranger. The implication is that you would never want to shoot someone you know, but the truth is a little different.

The shooting happened around 12:45 a.m. when a 41-year-old man who the woman knew approached her with a knife inside her home in the 11500 block of South Vincennes Avenue, Chicago police said. The woman then pulled out a gun and shot the man four times in his torso.

People you know include the creepy guy at your favorite coffee shop, the co-worker who is morphing into a stalker, ex-boyfriends, etc. They can all be a threat.

He was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead, officials said.

The investigation continues, but this seems to be a clear-cut case of self-defense, which is a human right. There isn't enough info for me to call this a case of domestic violence, but it certainly could be. (Hat tip to Hoodline, and Keep and Bear Arms.)
