Although carrying a firearm in Chicago requires completing a firearm training course, the city created a major obstacle by shutting down every local training facility. Rhonda Ezell took on Chicago's restrictive approach to gun control in court and emerged victorious. An attempted robbery at Smokers Town came to a fatal end when a store employee shot the intruder, who later died from his injuries. Is this the reality of embracing the thug life? Potential robbers and criminals would be far better off focusing on their homes and churches rather than targeting legitimate businesses. Consider this a public service announcement: refrain from crime, because people will stand up for themselves. Put simply, guns in responsible hands save lives.
