Sheriff Tom Dart said Sunday that he is proposing a concealed-carry gun ordinance to keep Cook County from becoming the "Wild West."
Dart said he's worried about a stalemate in the General Assembly on a law to license people to carry concealed guns. If legislators don't meet a June 9 court deadline to pass such a law, anyone with a state firearm owner's identification card could legally walk anywhere in public with a concealed weapon, Dart said.
