Chicago PD declares open season on CCW holders. One more reason to NOT get a CCW permit, otherwise the CPD may just SWAT you for daring to defy their self imposed decree.

I don’t know about most of LEO’s out there, but jackasses like this guy are putting LEO’s out there serious danger as being just as much of a threat as the criminals.

You ever go to a gun range on “LEO appreciation” days? Ever talked to or shot with LEOs? I have LEO friends in local sheriff, city PD, and highway patrol, and aside from some of the more dedicated marksman, most of them couldn’t hit the ten ring at ten feet.

There are notable exceptions. Even my shooting buddies, two of whom are LEOs, note the severe lack of proper gun regulation in newer cops. Most of the beat cops anymore are yahoos with badges. SWAT excepted, I wouldn’t trust my life to a cop since I’ve outshot most of them in competition.

I agree with that comment.

Yeah, I don't think what he actually said and the title of the article imply the same thing. If you turn toward a cop *or* a conceal carry individual with a gun in your hand on the street, you should expect the same result. The assumption here being you "turn toward" and aim or draw your weapon.

Let me get this straight.
Chicago police superintendent Garry McCarthy is declaring the intent to the premeditated murder of law abiding citizens.

Chicago citizens should not carry identification other than a lanyard around your neck.

Attempting to retreive your wallet/ID will make you DEAD.

Doesn’t this also mean that if they run across an undercover policeman with his firearm unholstered they’ll be expected to shoot them on sight without giving them an opportunity to identify themselves?

Wow, great question!

I was friends with the former police officer who was the chief of Warner Bros. security for some time. He echoed the same numskull idea that somehow American who are law abiding, exercising their God given rights to defend themselves, will make us all in more danger. Stupid and not factual.

I’m sure they’re just waiting for the right time to chime in. After all, it’s only one or two bad apples like the pinhead who made that statement, right?

Will the cop ranks be thinned by cops going to jail for murder?

If not, we have a two tiered system. Masters and slaves.

Many, many FReepers are proud to be known as low information voters. They accomplish this by refusing to read the article before commenting. Makes you proud of them, huh?

I was up there last month, and was SHOCKED what good shape the highways are in.

When the Interstate was built the Federal Government gave the option to make it freeway and get 50% fed grants or toll road and get 10% fed grants and fund the 90% with tolls. Once the construction costs are retired the toll money must by law be expended for toll road maintenance, snow removal, and wages and salaries for the work crews and the HIGHWAY COMMISIONERS. If there is any toll money left after expenses, the per mile tolls are to be reduced to make the system "revenue neutral". That happened once that I know of and it only lasted a few months before they determined a need for more Commissioners!

Illinois does a great job of snow removal every winter, two flakes and they are out with the plows and salt trucks. Best winter driving in the mid west. About the only thing I like about Chicago.

Regards,
GtG
