Self-Defense Is Catching on in Chicago

The reporters are also coming to understand the difference between victim and criminal. Chicago shooting: 27-year-old robbery victim shoots, kills armed 16-year-old suspect in West Pullman, Chicago police say - ABC7 Chicago

Chicago police are investigating after a man shot and killed a teenager who was trying to rob him Wednesday on the city's South Side.

The shooting happened around 3:36 p.m. in the 11700 block of South Normal Avenue in West Pullman, Chicago police said.

West Pullman is one of the 77 neighborhoods in Chicago. It is located on the far south side of the city,  about 15 miles south of the Loop.

Police did bring the 27-year-old man in for questioning, but as of Wednesday evening no charges have been filed.

Slowly, very slowly, legal self-defense seems to be coming to Chicago. Given the state of the Criminal Justice System (so called) in Chicago and Cook County, it is not really a surprise.

Self-defense is a human right. It might be your legal right in Chicago, depends on the new State's Attorney. (Hat tip to USA Carry)
