Anyways, yeah, concealed carry seems to have very little to do with this, weather was probably the main factor.

However, there has been at least one instance of a CCW holder stopping a crime, thus far: http://cdn.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/04/06/A-Whole-New-World-Chicago-Resident-With-CCW-Turns-Tables-On-Armed-Attackers

I never did claim the illinois allowing rights (conceal carry) reduced crime already. I merely posted the article to show hoplophobes that the passage of conceal carry, the expansion of rights does not at all make more blood in the streets, as gun grabbers would have you believe.

Though i came accross this article, which seems related and funny:
