CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) - A concealed carry holder shot and critically wounded someone who approached him with a gun Monday in Little Village on the Southwest Side.
He was walking into an apartment alley about 4:15 p.m. when a man approached him in the 2500 block of South California Avenue and took out a handgun, Chicago police said.
The man, 25, took out his own gun and shot the 20-year-old in his head, police said. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition.
The older man was uninjured and showed officers a valid firearms ownership card and concealed carry license, police said.
Area Central detectives are investigating

"What does it take for the average resident of Chicago to obtain a handgun permit? Is it even possible?"If your uncle is an alderman, or otherwise minor nobility, sure, it's possible, even likely. If you're not politically connected? Not a hope in hell.

"Advise getting a larger caliber weapon. " No kidding. What was he using, a pink 25 caliber lady's gun? Either that or the perp has a really thick head.

So someone successfully defended himself using a gun. But as far as statistics, the liberal media will still record this as an occurrence of “gun violence” so that they can take them away.
To: TigerClaws
Not to judge a survivor of an armed encounter, but really he should have gone for the center of mass.
Good result, though.

Years ago was in school with a guy who was clerking at a local D.A. office. One of the cases he was working on involved a man who was shot point blank in the face with a 9mm and survived.

It is no harder than most other big cities. No clout required as per the USSC.
