One of the suspects confronted him onsite.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police say the burglar started shooting. The CCL holder was armed and began to shoot back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the shootout, the suspects left and got in a sedan. Police do not know what direction they went in.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCL holder called the police. He reported what had happened and described the suspects and the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCL holder was not injured and police have not announced if he will be charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-realistic-look-at-violent-crime\">A Realistic Look At Violent Crime<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This incident, while scary, is not an extreme one. No innocent bystanders were hurt.  But what is concerning is that we see articles like this practically every week.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of them are far more extreme than this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCL holder doesn\u2019t always escape unscathed. Sometimes people die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/home.chicagopolice.org\/statistics-data\/crime-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"chicago-ccl-holder-gets-into-shootout-with-burglary-suspects\" title=\"Chicago CCL Holder Gets Into Shootout With Burglary Suspects\">Chicago Police<\/a> released a report on Sunday documenting the city\u2019s crime rates. In District 5, where this shooting happened, there have been 106 reported shooting incidents so far in 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Citywide, there have been over 1,000. There have been thousands of cases of assault and aggravated battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are barely halfway through this calendar year, but 313 people have been murdered in Chicago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reports for the whole United States are significantly fuzzier. Still, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/article\/early-2024-data-show-promising-signs-of-another-historic-decline-in-gun-violence\/#:~:text=Looking%20at%20the%20national%2012,were%204%2C333%20total%20gun%20homicides.\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"chicago-ccl-holder-gets-into-shootout-with-burglary-suspects\" title=\"Chicago CCL Holder Gets Into Shootout With Burglary Suspects\">The Center For American Progress <\/a>claimed that \u201cAs of April 30, the GVA had records of 5,043 total gun homicides.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That was over 2 months ago. The number has almost definitely risen since. And those numbers only account for those who the guns killed. Many more people have been put in the hospital.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-need-to-defend-yourself-increases\">The Need To Defend Yourself Increases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a heavy topic, to be certain. It is painful to think about people wanting to harm others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it is real. These numbers all represent real people, with families.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What percent of these numbers are due to citizens not knowing the gun laws? How many people have died because they didn\u2019t have a firearm to protect themselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If every homeowner in the neighborhood had a gun, burglars would start to hesitate. If every person in the local grocery store carried, assaults would not last long in society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlawful uses of guns make the news. This CCL holder had a gun. He knew how to defend himself. How many others in Chicago, or the United States, can say the same?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/homeowner-shoots-protects-child-from-alleged-murder-suspect\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"chicago-ccl-holder-gets-into-shootout-with-burglary-suspects\" title=\"Chicago CCL Holder Gets Into Shootout With Burglary Suspects\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Homeowner Shoots, Protects Child From Alleged Murder Suspect<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-be-like-the-ccl-holder\">Be Like The CCL Holder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You never know if you will be put in a situation to defend yourself.
