“What does it take for the average resident of Chicago to obtain a handgun permit?”

Take the classes. Pay the fees. Pass background check. Permit issued. Mrs. L and I both have ours. I work in Chicago and carry every single day.

You are incredibly wrong. Astonishingly wrong.

If you’re not politically connected? Not a hope in hell.


I’m not in Chicago, or even Illinois for that matter, thank God, but I think you are wrong. It certainly used to be that way, but Illinois (and Chicago) are a shall issue state for concealed carry now. I’m pretty sure that if you have a clean record, have a FOID card, take and pass a class, pay your money, you can get one.

If I’m wrong, I’m sure an Illinoian can and will correct me.

What recourse does the feral clown & his parasitic family have to file such a suit?

The Darwin Award winner pulled a weapon first and had malicious intent from the word ‘go’.

Serious question, but knowing the DA is a Jussie Smollet boot licker, your scenario may fly. Freakin’ world...!!

John Wick would have killed two guys like that with a pencil.

It’ll be the feral’s word against the Citizen’s word, and after the “proper jury is shopped for”, anything could happen.

"You are incredibly wrong. Astonishingly wrong."

Since when has Chicago suddenly become honest? I remember my father building a false wall, in the attic, when he moved to Bridgeport, to hide his gun collection. I've bought two cops, an alderman and a traffic court judge. Was there a volcano at Clark and Dearborn, that I missed?

Yes. McDonald v City of Chicago.

Look it up.

Are they expensive to keep? Did you have to add extra bedrooms for them?

Gabby Giffords was shot in the face with a 9mm.

The fact that she's now mentally disabled and will likely spend the rest of her life with her psycho husband's hand up her ass is another story.

Illinois is a Shall Issue state.

As far as I know, you need a F.O.I.D. card, 16 hrs in a classroom/range and a couple hundred bucks.

I haven't heard of any particular problems with CC in Chitcago, but I haven't really paid much attention to what goes on in that chithole either.

I suppose you are right, but if it ever got to that jury pull - the criminal record of all involved should be clear cut.

The perp’s record is probably as long as Tom Sawyer’s first three chapters.

It’s easier than it used to be. The bans on firearms were deemed unconstitutional by our supreme court, and you have to have a valid FOID (requiring $10 for the background check and submission of a current photo) along with 40 hours of training by a licensed instructor (community colleges offering courses to become security guards cover this) and a $200 fee. Gotta collect those dollars.

It’s all handled by the state police, and everything is done online unless you call and have paperwork sent to you. In which case, it takes 90 days instead of 30 to confirm all of your information. I’m considering applying for an FFL license, honestly. It’d save some time.

They're feral. You have to keep them in the yard.

And expensive. They always want enough for a condo in Arizona and a bass boat.
