Chicago reported 516 homicides in 2012 not 806.
20 or so were justifieds.
Houston reported 217 total homicides in 2012.
Detroit, St Louis, New Orleans and Philadelphia were much worse places than Chicago in the large city categories. Chicago will be striving hard to catch up this year.
The CTU should be dec.ared a criminal organization and Lewis charged with thousands of counts of child abuse.

CCL is legal in Chicago.

New York, even with a communist mayor, is the safest large city in the world.

A Hell of a place.

I lived and worked in Manhattan for a couple of years in the early 1990s (pre-Giuliani). NYC was a cesspool. Giuliani saved the city. De Blasio is quickly destroying it again.
Barely, and not until the courts forced the Democrats to permit it a couple of years ago.
I agree completely!
Don’t know what you mean by “barely”. I carry freely in both Chicago and all of the collar counties. There are surprisingly few of those stupid signs around.
We have a shall issue system that’s largely worked pretty well. Take your classes, pay the fees, (which are way too high and ripe for a lawsuit IMO) and you get your permit in about 30 days.
You can carry whatever you are comfortable with, permits are not weapon specific in any way. We have no AWB here, either. ARs, AKs, FN types, even Barrets can be had if you can afford them. Several high end gun manufacturers call Illinois home. Rock River, Springfield Armory, DS Arms, are just a few.
Chicago is a sewer to be sure. But it’s not the entire State.
