there is no credible evidence that permissive laws prevent or deter crime.

Really?

Let's look at it the other way -- Chicago has extremely strict laws about firearms. It's permissive at all. How is Chicago doing in regards to preventing or deterring crime?

In Chicago, is black on black murder actually a crime to be pursued by cops?

That's no longer the case. Since 2010, when the SUpreme Court struck down the Illinois gun laws, Illinois has been a "shall issue" state, with 246,769 active CCW holders as of June 2017, all of which are allowed to carry in Chicago.
