In Detroit, they already are:
Excerpt: “....residents of Detroit are increasingly taking protection of themselves, their families and property into their own hands. Those who do so responsibly have the blessing and backing of Detroit Police Chief James Craig.
“When you look at the city of Detroit, we’re kind of leading the way in terms of urban areas with law-abiding citizens carrying guns,” Craig said recently.
Detroit if fortunate in that they have a Police Chief who knows he needs and is appreciative of their help. Imagine what would happen in Chicago if this were true there. Makes me think Chicago politicians just don’t care about what happens to Black people - one murder is just one less person they have to think about.
