Do yourself a favor:
A nice concise recap of the events and timeline.

Police responded in less than 2 minutes from the 0911 call. And a quote
Feb. 10 – Police reveal a Tinley Park police officer came within SECONDS of catching the shooter. The officer was stopped in the parking lot of an adjacent Super Target, about 200 yards from the Lane Bryant store when five women were killed and a sixth was left for dead, authorities say. Unaware of the nearby carnage, he was dispatched to Lane Bryant about one minute after store manager Rhoda McFarland dialed 911, sparking the killing spree. He arrived at the store within a minute of being dispatched, but the gunman was gone.
Illinois with still no LTC.
If our women can grab a phone and dial 911 why won’t our legislators trust them to be able to grab a 1911? Should they so choose 2 minutes and 200 yards made a difference in 6 peoples life’s.
