Concealed Carry Enacted In Illinois, Guess What Happened To Chicago Murder Rate In This First Quarter?
It was a hell of a winter.
Bump
Concealed carry and the murder rate there are probably not connected. Most of the murders involve gang members taking out other gangs.
They can’t legally carry in the first place.
I think you hit on it, the cold weather kept people inside.
They went south for the winter...

6 people shot overnight in Marion County (Indy)
INDIANAPOLIS -
A weekend of violence continued overnight across central Indiana. Police are investigating six people shot in three different incidents.
I don’t doubt that concealed carry will make a difference but it won’t happen overnight. Legal carry in Detroit is building and the murder rate is creeping down but its taking time.
Last year there were 10 defensive shooting in Detroit all year, there have been 15 already this year.
For the Nth time since this story has been posted N times, the first CCW permits in IL arrived in owners hands less than a month ago...
Yes concealed carry works. It hasnt had time in Chicago and the murders there are mostly the inner city blacks killing each other over drugs and gang turf.
Be patient .. it’s barely April.
As I saw a cop on the Alaska State Troopers show say “We don’t discover a lot of our murders till spring”.
It helps to have a sheriff on the same side as the people.
“I can’t breathe..!....I can’t feel my LEGS..!”
When a criminal gasps it, you should double-over in red-faced laughter. It’s cute and sexy.
Go ahead! LAUGH AS HE DIES...!!

Low crime was due to polar vortex... so now the baseline will be set artificially low by the left so any murdering in Chicago in subsequent quarters will be played up like a huge spike, which is will “only be reduced” by confiscation of firearms from the lawful.
Thanks SeekAndFind.

One. The cold weather kept them home.
Two. Knowing the population they will make up for it.
Exactly. Way to soon to prove anything.
Of course you are right, but the point you are missing is the media hysteria over it has been non-stop for the last few months.
Now I don't expect the homies to actually read a newspaper, but the TV coverage has also been high and the sons of Obama probably think that every white man has a .44 magnum under his shirt. As long as they think this way the outcome will be fine.
