AWR Hawkins
A concealed carry permit holder in Chicago opened fire on two alleged carjackers Monday morning, wounding one.The Chicago Sun-Times reported that the 58-year-old permit holder “heard a car alarm around 3:40 a.m.” in the West Chesterfield neighborhood and ventured outside, where he found two suspects in his car.
One of the two suspects allegedly showed a gun, at which point the permit holder opened fire, striking a 17-year-old alleged carjacker twice. The 17-year-old was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.
FOX 32 noted that the second suspect was able to flee the scene and escape the scene in a minivan.
The 58-year-old car owner has a valid FOID card and a valid concealed carry permit.

No word on alleged carjacker’s FOID card, as if that made it illegalier.

Catchy tune care of ICE:
Hat tip to AW1 Rod for the link.
“….non-life-threatening injuries.”
Damn!
I find the idea of a “FOID” for any non-felon Citizen to be distasteful. I honestly do not understand how that has not been struck down by the courts as unconstitutional. If your rights have not been removed due to criminal behavior, there should be no reason to force a Citizen to do anything other than be able to prove they are a citizen before exercising a right.
The ICEcapades have returned to the twin cities.
Uh-oh, left/libtards about the hysterical… “disparate impact” is done:

That’s a decent looking pistol. Get me a 12 pack of cheap-ass beer, a box of bullets and a country road! Yeah, I’ll pick up after myself.
