Glad to hear these stories anywhere, but really happy it was in Chicago. In these kind of debates with non gun owners I have been using this argument to great effect. Where is it that the authorities have the greatest control and thus should be the safest place to be. I usually get a blank look. I then lead the conversation..... They don't allow guns or knives, the cops watch you 24/7, there is no privacy, they control everything possible, strip searches are common...... At this point they get it: Prison. Then the simple question, so in the most draconian locked down situation possible, why do they still have drug issues and people killed on a regular basis. Because taking away all forms of self defense only allows those with ill intent to make the rest victims. Bad guys don't follow the rules by definition. This guy/story shows what can happen when the would be victim is able to defend themselves. Love it.
