IN LTCH holder shoots and kills robber in Chicago.

Or when they lump 16 and 17 year-old gang members into "children shot or killed with guns."

I think they may go up to 20 or so.
That was another complaint how they put their fingers on the scale.

Good grief ... somebody somewhere is counting this as "another victim of gun violence."

While I agree it's BS, I'll give the site credit for copping to, and giving an explanation for why they choose to include those who died while committing criminal acts: About us

Though I'm sure most don't read that page, and just assume it was just another "senseless death".

It looks as though there were no charges against the self defender. My point is this was Illinois and the defender was obviously carrying outside his auto.

But, don't assume you will be treated the same.

Great news, there's justice to be had even in chicago!
But I'm betting the DA decided the case might be a hard sell to a jury rather than being embarrassed about bring charges against someone for self defense. Bernie Goetz wasn't this lucky though
