Of course, we would not want to arm decent citizens in Chicago to protect themselves and their neighborhoods after the lawmakers have failed for decades to do so!

I'm not sure if anyone else is paying attention, but if you get on the local newspaper forums (Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun Times, Chicago Reader, etc..) you'll see that some of the happiest folks that "conceal carry" (really: fanny pack carry) has passed are the blacks living in the two or three neighborhoods where all this violence is occurring.

They are quite literally celebrating at having the ability to DEFEND themselves against the gang-banging thugs.

Concealed carry has not been enacted in Chicago yet despite a recent court order and passage of a highly restrictive concealed carry law. The Attorney General is still prosecuting legal gun owners who carry concealed in Chicago outside their homes.
