Rockford, Illinois Federal Judge, Iain Johnston has ruled Illinois’ concealed carry ban on public transportation unconstitutional, yet it is clear that just days after the murder of four CTA Blue Line passengers, city officials and policymakers still don’t get it or simply don’t care. The U.S. District Judge’s decision pertains specifically to Illinois residents who have already been vetted and approved for concealed carry permits, a bad look for opponents of the ruling as they are unable to stop criminals from carrying firearms and committing murder but have instead targeted law-abiding citizens, callously leaving them unable to defend themselves in Chicago, one of America’s most violent and crime-ridden cities.
