Message to criminals, Illinois is now a concealed carry state. This thug didn't know this.....

It would seem to me that to disable a person with a single shot is far more reasonable than to fill them with lead. Or is it these shooters just can't shoot straight?

How do you know he was "filled with lead" ? the piece of shit criminal might have only been shot once in the chest

A concealed carry permit holder ended the criminal career of a violent teenage thug. We will never know how many lives were saved by the actions of this concealed carry permit holder, but keep in mind...this teenage criminal was willing to point a gun at another human being in order to take their money....does anyone think that this teenage thug would not one day have murdered someone?

Chicago teen fatally shot by CCP-holder during attempted robbery

A 16-year-old boy is dead after he allegedly tried to rob a man outside of a bank in the Oak Park area of Chicago Saturday morning.

Police say it appears the teen, who was armed with a gun, approached the 24-year-old victim just after 11 a.m. intending to commit a robbery. However, the would-be victim was also armed and an exchange of gunfire occurred.

The teen, who was identified as Damon Phillips, was shot multiple times in the chest and fled the scene in a waiting car. He later showed up at an area hospital where he was pronounced dead about half an hour after the attempted robbery. It wasn’t immediately known how Phillips got to the hospital or whether there was a second suspect involved.

The victim, who authorities confirmed has a valid permit to carry a concealed weapon, was not injured.

No charges have been filed at this time, although the incident remains under investigation.

I just love happy endings.

It's too bad we can't just shoot to kill tax evader criminals or corporate banker criminals. How many lives has wells Fargo destroyed? Surely that's worthy of a self-defense shooting of one of their execs.

Let us know how that works out for you bed wetter.

Are you sure that basing policy on childhood cowboy and Indians fantasies is a good idea?

Only for criminal loving libs like you.

I don't love criminals. You and I just have different understandings of what and how bad a criminal is. And probably what is acceptable punishment for said crimes.

Killing someone committing armed robbery is an acceptable punishment.

The best shot to disable is right between the eyes. They usually don't fight back much after that one.

That's not the easiest shot to make quickly. Center mass is the best option.

I could shoot you several times center mass with a .22 and you could STILL kick my ass!

I would never use a .22 for self defense.

I guess this shows how dangerous people with no respect for humans can be. This kid most likely did not even have his gun loaded.

Were you hoping to look stupid ?

You succeeded.

Would you be willing to bet your life on the kid's gun not being loaded?? ....

Being as how I have been shot before I can honestly say yes to the question. I also know kids who hold guns generally have no intention to use them, they just hold them because it is a method of intimidation. Also I would make an effort to get the kid to lay down his weapon.

Go ahead.

That is your perogitive.

Me, I'll aim for the heart and forehead.

Once it's on...it's on.

Shoot until the threat is incapacitated or dead.
