Chicago crime rate drops as concealed carry applications surge

Law enforcement authorities described the man as “a model citizen” who “helped others avoid being victims” at an AT&T store outside Chicago where he witnessed the holdup. The man, whose identity was withheld from the press, prevented others from entering the store during the theft.

  2. This should be a wake up call to liberal Democratic politicians in Maryland. Yes, even the local ones. I live 1/2 mile from the Delaware State line. I can carry and protect myself in the Food Lion parking lot, but as soon as I go a block south into Maryland, I am breaking the law and become a criminal.

  6. Year To Date Chicago murder Totals:
    Shot & Killed: 239
    Shot & Wounded: 1443
    Total Homicides*: 279

    The truth is, Mayor Rahm is on record pace to DOUBLE the murders in Chicago this year compared to last years 12 month total of 273. It's only August!
    Police involved shootings total 34 with 13 killed.

    The whole premise of this article is Democrat LIES and DECEIT because the media actively participates in regular misinformation campaigns to cover for and shelter Democrat politicians from evidence that proves them to be inept and or incompetent.

    Gotcha DEMS!
