This is my surprised face.
They just don't get it do they?
In all cases, where guns are most severely restricted, violent crime is up. In all cases where law abiding citizens own and carry guns, violent crime decreases. What is so difficult to understand about this simple fact?

That's just slap-in-the-face proof that an unarmed society is a victim rich society. They're told over and over by the NRA, gun-friendly businesses and people, hunters, sport shooters, and even musicians (Uncle Ted) that laws only hurt those who obey them.

Thanks, how did you fix that?Quote:

Suzanna Gratia Hupp, check out the youtube of her testimony to Texas legislature.
As far as CCW goes, the 49 states that issue permits fall into the category of either "May issue" which places the decision to issue a permit at the discretion of one person or group, or "shall issue", which means that under statute, the issuing authority must issue a permit to anyone that meets the requirements that applies. In practice "may issue" in many cases means there ain't no f**king way the average person is going to get a permit, unless they are wealthy and/or politically connected. Colorado is a Shall Issue state, one does not need to show cause for a permit to be issued, just meet the criteria outlined in Colorado Revised Statute 18-12-203. Sheriffs in Colorado can still deny a permit for cause, but they must be able to justify the denial, and it is subject to judicial review.Quote:

A few states (Vermont, Alaska, Arizona, and possibly Wyoming but I forgot) don't require a license at all, or at least not under most circumstances. AK and AZ will issue a license, just so that their own residents can take advantage of reciprocity while traveling.
The remainder are shall-issue, in that some standard for licensure is written into law and the issuing official doesn't get any choice in whether to issue a license to someone who meets the set standard.
