Fact: Illinois doesnt allow concealed carry of any fire arms. State and federal officers can carry concealed. Criminals can carry concealed, not legally though.
So where does that leave the average Joe? It leaves them hoping that officers will be there when needed. Yea right, that would mean every single person would have to have their own personal officer for protection. That would happen right about the same time that pigs learned to fly. Which would be, NEVER. Seeing that the only people who get the luxury of feeling safe are cops and criminals, wouldnt it be beneficiary to be one of them? Survival of the fittest, which includes the people who are willing to do anything to maintain their survival. Poor average Joe, you be screwed.
Of course the argument would be had. That if no one had guns, no one would be ever shot. In a perfect delusional world, that would happen, but this is the real world. After you wake up for that night mare, you would see that if guns were completely outlawed, the number of stabbings would go up. Either that or violent batteries would escalate. People in general are violent and will find a way to hurt each other. We arent New Zealand, so let average Joe carry.
Fight the man!
