A woman with a concealed carry permit shot and killed a teen who tried to rob her at gunpoint Tuesday morning on the Far South Side, according to Chicago police.

The 25-year-old woman was standing on a corner when the teen approached around 5:40 a.m. . . .

When the teen pulled out a gun, the woman grabbed her own and fired one shot, hitting the teen in the neck, police said. The teen ran off but was found a block away and taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead.

Seriously???

The question about her 'whiteness' or not, was simply rhetorical. It was supposed to set up the rest of my argument or comments. Did you bother to read the rest of my comments?

Ottumwa??? Is that a place where you grew up, where you are not taught to read for understanding or with context in mind?

“She wasn’t white. I can tell from the address. She was probably on her way to work when the punk tried rob her.”

Its just me, but my first choice for a maximum return for effort would not be a woman on the way to work at 5 in the morning.

This may the direction for a start for the return of law & order to Brazil. If a sufficient number of the hoods get blown away by concealed carry ladies, maybe the remainder will consider a change in occupation.

Good thing for her that Illinois was forced to have “Shall Issue” CCW back in 2013.

Soooo sad! The “teen” was destined to be either a brain scientist or a rocket surgeon.

I'm pretty sure they ran out of it, after you bought their entire inventory of the stuff. Worry not, you can always get the generic stuff when you're used up all your shipments.

I always thought that too. They would have to ask themselves “do you feel lucky, punk? Well, do ya?”
