In  Orland Park, IL a man without a firearms license shoots and kills a robber. IIRC, it’s illegal to have a gun in IL without proper licensure, so how can the man, who only had the gun for a moment after he took it off the robber, not face jail time?

MJ Mollenhour asks the question too and it’s a damned fine question.

If this man is let go because he acted in self defense, then what is the legal amount of time you’re allowed to physically hold a gun without a license in IL and how does that particular, arbitrary amount of time protect the public at large?
