"It's a little scary," said Melissa Vosberg, on her way home to the Chicago area after a cruise in the Bahamas. "It's 'shoot first, ask about it later.'"

I assume Melissa "the scared" is resting comfortably in Chicago where the criminals ask the victim questions before shooting them.

If ignorance is bliss, Melissa is one happy camper.

I had a good friend mugged in the Bahamas while on vacation. He was beaten pretty badly.

Melissa should also know that she is "extra" safe in Chicago because out of state police officers (current and retired) aren't even allowed to have guns in here neck of the woods. So only police officers have have weapons and can defend others. That is why violent crime in Chicago does not exist.

note: Out of state police officers have to do lots of paperwork and take a test of some sort to have there badge recognized legally in Illinois (last I heard - may have changed). Otherwise most states recognize police and military licsense that grant right to carry.

I noticed the irony in Melissa's statement too.

The only thing is, I wonder what "Chicago Area" means. If its Chicago proper she's an idiot and a fool. If it's the suburbs Melissa better wake up - because in my suburb (in DuPage County) we are allowed to use deadly force to protect "Life and Property".

And unlike Chicago, whose gun laws consist of 96 pages (or is it 97?), my Villages gun laws are spelled out on 1/2 sheet of paper :-)
