The incident unfolded around 6 a.m. in the city’s west side when a vehicle with "three males inside" approached the victim, who was inside his own vehicle...

“Chicago Police say “The offending vehicle then attempted to flee, but crashed nearby.”

Another guilty vehicle on the rampage.

True they end up doing a Biden imitation (brown alert) if they live through it.

I want to read more of these stories. Concealed carry for every law abiding citizen.

Why don’t they want us fighting back ? (rhetorical)

Three blacks attempted to rob a white guy?

The guy who wasn’t shot apparently broke his leg in the get away crash.

They should offer them assisted suicide for treatment.

These stories should be headlines in the local press as object lessons on the subject of dangerous occupations.

Hope the ferals don’t have paralysis or other permanent injuries - they will sue the victim’s homeowners insurance policy, the gun manufacturer, the city and/or the maker of their getaway car, and win.

Also, don’t assume the victim is out of the woods yet. Beetlejuice and Kim Foxxxxx are duty-bound to declare it a racist hate crime anytime a victim fights back against the ferals - even if he is also black.

Science fiction writer A.E. van Vogt in the Weapon Shops of Isher (1941) wrote:

The right to bear arms is the right to be free.

Charles Haywood wrote in a retrospective review: Feb.16, 2017:
If you are not armed, you are always wholly at the mercy of tyrants. Who can argue with such a truism? A lot of people, actually. For the phrase does not, in fact, echo down the ages of Man. It dates only to 1941, when this book, a now obscure science fiction classic, was first published—and the principle itself is not much older.
