What is it going to take to wake up Cook County Democratic state legislators and City of Chicago politicians?

All you have to do is read this morning's Chicago Tribune. Read the front page article about the 67-year-old man who was stabbed in an apparent robbery attempt.

Did this happen late at night? In a "bad" neighborhood?

It happened inside the Westin Hotel men's room! About 6:30PM! His relatives and he were downtown for the Magnificient Mile Lights Festival.

After finding the Cheesecake Factory in the John Hancock Building overcrowded, they crossed the street to the Westin, planning to dine in the Grill there. The unnamed 67-year-old man was attacked in the restroom. The robber was not described in the Tribune article, other than he was dressed all in black.

Here is an excellent reason for concealed carry. The punk who attacked him would not have known whether he was armed. And he would not have known whether others nearby might be armed.

It'll take a few days after the passage of concealed carry for the word to get around town that it's no longer safe to attack. And, no, the streets of Chicago and of Illinois will not become the Wild Wild West. Responsible, armed citizens know they cannot shoot in restricted spaces where they might hit a bystander.
