A robbery led to the shooting deaths of five women<\/a> at a Lane Bryant store in Tinley Park, Illinois, in suburban Chicago.<\/p>\n

When police arrived, they found multiple victims shot and killed in a back room of the store, Tinley Park police Sgt.\u00a0T.J. Grady\u00a0said.<\/p>\n

As of 6 p.m., police confirmed that the motive in the case was robbery. In a press conference Saturday night,\u00a0Grady said there is no indication that the suspect is still not armed.<\/p>\n

“They are taking it very methodically,” Grady said about the search for the suspect, including working with a witness to try to get a composite of the shooter. Police have also pulled video from stores and establishments in a mile and a half radius around the store to see if the shooter stopped in anywhere prior to the shooting.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I hope the police find the shooter, although it looks like the first ten hours of manhunt have gone unrewarded.<\/p>\n

It’s worth noting that while, unlike the Westroads Mall in Omaha where a shooting on December 7 of last year claimed eight, the Lane Bryant in Tinsdale Park was not <\/em>posted against concealed carry permit holders.\u00a0 The reason, of course, is that Illinois has the toughest state-level gun control laws in the country – and Chicago is worse still.\u00a0 And while there was a private-property case to be made for Westroads (and other stores) being able to bar the law-abiding gun owner from their premises, it’s the State of Illinois <\/em>and the City of Chicago<\/em> that keeps the locals disarmed and helpless in this case.
\nThe upshot another disarmed population being slaughtered like sheep.<\/p>\n

When will the\u00a0 brain-dead cretins <\/em>who legislate gun bans (against the law-abiding) learn?\u00a0 Or, better yet, be held accountable for the rivers of innocent blood on their hands?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
