Yep another GUN FREE ZONE ask this lady how that sign is working at keeping her safe.

A 58-year-old woman was punched in the face and sprayed with a chemical irritant Saturday morning in an alleged attempted robbery outside of a Gurnee bank, according to a police news release.

Police are now asking for help in identifying the suspect, who did not get away with the woman’s purse and bank deposit, authorities said.

The incident occurred about 9:40 a.m Jan. 3 in the parking lot of Fifth Third Bank, 7500 Route 132 in Gurnee.

According to a police description, the suspect is a black male who was wearing a black “puffy” jacket with a fur-lined hood. He was last seen running westbound from the bank, police said.

I think it was at the Fifth Third Bank 7500 grand Av Gurnee Il. 60031

Gun free zones, may as well have signs posted:

Attention Criminals, this is a sitting Duck Zone. No one is armed and you can rest assured, you will not be harmed by these victims. Please refrain from shooting them for sport.

It is interesting to note that to date, in Illinois, NOT one convicted Felon has yet to prosecuted for violating a 'Gun Free Zone' while committing their crimes in such zones with firearms.
"An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it." -Col. Jeff Cooper

There is also the lesson of situational awareness.

We don't know any details, but if you are caught off guard like that because either you were not paying attention or too careless to profile the people around you then you likely are not going to be able to engage the firearm quickly enough anyway.

As the saying goes "be prepared to kill everyone around you". Of course, not really, but be prepared to engage anyone.

People need to pay attention to the crime being committed around them and the people who are committing them. Neighborhoods are changing. I was at a neighborhood watch meeting about 3 months back there was about 40 resident there better than half didn't know concealed carry passed in Illinois.

The GFZ is mostly people being uneducated and only listening to the news reporters. They paint a picture of how bad they are and it was the gun that killed a person. If they did not have a gun to use they would have just used a knife or a baseball bat. They never report on the ones that the lawful people used to save either their own or a family members life.

I was listing to this on the police scanner that morning when all of that was taking place and no one had a clue what was going on. In the beginning dispatch wasn't even giving the police the correct bank name and said it was at PNC Bank. Such a cluster.

GFZ's are where you find unicorns, fairies, and invisible elves. That's why we put them around schools.

I did a report on gun free zones and found that, since 2009, 92% of all mass shootings have taken place in gun free zones. Makes you feel safe doesn't it?
