content: I agree. I think it's terrible that nobody came to his aid. But I understand it. Consider this: who wants to, or is equipped to, take on 5 violent thugs? This poor man was outnumbered by like 5 violent thugs. Even if two citizens would have stepped-in to help the innocent man, they'd still outnumbered by thugs almost 2-fold.    I live in Illinois. Not in the city of Chicago. But fairly close. We desperately need concealed-carry and/or open-carry here. This shit would've never happened in many other places. Chicago has the strictest gun laws and the most "gun-free" zones in the entire country, and it's currently the current leader in gun-caused murders in the country. No one wants to step in and confront these thugs with no firearm because they will lose to the thug that most likely has a firearm.    That's literally the way it is: None of the law-abiding citizens can carry firearms, but all of the criminals are packed with at least 1 firearm. Chicago Chiraq*
