Well, maybe we could list Chicago on Ebay and see if there are any bids! Start with a $.99 opening bid and hope for the best.

 ;D ;D
You might lower the bid to $.97 but that could still be high.

Would I personally carry if lawful here? Sure, it would be good common sense under some circumstances.

To be perfectly honest about carrying, I probably wouldn't 99.9% of the time. I just don't live in an area that has that much crime and violence but, those times when I'm in high crime areas, you better believe it, I would definately have a surprise for the bad guys! My wife and family are far more important to me than the safety of some low life, drug crazed, punk wanting to do them harm. My personal beleif is that all Americans should have the right to defend what they love and have worked for and that criminals shouldn't have any rights to protect themselves. Some where in our laws we've made the mistake of changing that thought?
I pray the Supreme Court rulings that are about to come about, do a 180 degree turn about, on this?

The last time I looked, Illinois was one of 2 states that didn't have a carry permit. Pretty sad.
