NW Side man is first concealed carry permit holder arrested in Chicago

HenryChinaski said:
Like I said there's gonna be more CC tough guys arrested for pulling their guns over things that don't need guns pulled. People in this town are assholes by nature and giving them the go ahead to carry a gun in public is a bad idea.

Are you suggesting that assholes didn't pull guns on people before the CCW law passed?

No he's suggesting there will be more, its right there in the post you quoted. See it? I know you do.

This is OK, but if a Northerner made a crack about marrying your cousin in Alabama....

Double standards. They aren't just for Liberals anymore.

I would laugh, IF it was a good joke. If not I would tell him he needed to work on his delivery.
 
rocket88 said:
For the most part, I agree. This person still deserves punishment, and is clearly not "law abiding."

Completely agree...not because he is a "law abiding citizen" or because he is a "CCW holder" but for the simple fact that he appears to have broken the law. As a law abiding citizen and a CCW holder I would like to see ALL people that commit crimes with firearms punished, including violent offenders given mandatory minimum sentences.
 
It's like this, would anyone walk into a anger issue management class with a bunch of bricks, bats and guns and say "have at it!" That's what Chicago is like.

Well why do you think the rest of the world calls it ****cago? Da Bears.

That's a handy picture of a revolver they got there, helps the reader visualize

It's just a photo of a handgun. Although the photo doesn't match the story, which claims the person brandished a revolver, I believe most people who know something about handguns knows the diff between a revolver and semi auto.
 
American said:
So the man lost his permit for brandishing a weapon? The article doesn't say he was threatened or had a legitimate reason to pull his weapon. If you do that, then I imagine you would lose your permit. So what's the point?

It is, but I'd still say brandishing a weapon over it isn't OK.

Yep, like I said. :)
 
Keep em coming Henry, especially with baseball and tailgaiting every day now on either side of town. :lamo
I live in LaSalle county and went to high school in Will county and have been to both ballparks often.

Old County stadium in Milwaukee was a real pisshole.
We'd head there from Whitewater on buses with kegs .

Your "typical law abiding citizen" here likes to fist fight in the middle of the Field Museum over who knows what while surrounded by children. your "typical law abiding citizen" has no qualms about pissing on the El after a bender at a Cubs game then whaling on passengers who have a problem with it. Throw some guns into this mix and nothing good will happen.

Come on...you dont think it is funny that he is stating that people from his town are too stupid, infantile, and irresponsible to own a firearm or carry concealed? Thats comedy gold from my perspective.
 
I'd be interested to find out who pulled the gun on whom? The renter or the landlord.

This town is full of angry yahoo's will bill beat the **** out of someone over a parking space. Give those yahoos permission to carry guns in public and bad things will happen.

So in other words, allowing Chicagoans the same right that people in over 40 states already HAVE (and have managed quite well statistically), will result in a bloodbath? Doesn't reflect well on Chicagoans I'm afraid. :lamo


We've heard this before methinks....

Yeah, that's what happens when entire neighborhoods fill up with exports from Ohio...

It brings into question his authenticity...
 
Funny thing is this happened in Edison Park, the safest neighborhood in Chicago...

There's going to be more arrests of more people who get pissed off over some petty thing and feel justified in pulling a pistol just because the have a CCP.

CCW holders are as a group less likely to have trouble with the law, despite your implications. 13 times less likely.

I accept completely that it is likely that everyone he knows fits the stereotype he has described. Speaks volumes.

Who was that other douchebag from Chicago that cant be trusted. Seems to me he was like a community organizer or something like that.

Well...you know..."those people"...(from Chicago)

Authenticity? I've lived in this town my whole life. I can convey properly how high strung and dickish the average resident is here.

CCW is new.


But not too many people get killed over parking. That may change with CCW, I suppose.

Right after they may be struck by lightning, I suppose.
