I think the RMGO website also has a list of sheriff's who submit their list of permit holders to the CCIC. I'll see if I can find that.

Looks like it was last updated on 03/07...but here's the link. It may have changed a bit since 07:

Just sitting here thinking... how many incidents where bystanders are shot by LEOs in the line of duty. I know it is horrible to think about, and may be a difficult subject. I know they spend hours training.
DO NOT GET ME WRONG... I am just looking for a comparison here....
I am NOT knocking our LEOs in any way, shape or form.... I truly appreciate and admire the work they do everyday.
If I wasn't too old, (or too fat) I would love to be involved in LE.
Just wondering....
Asbestos undies are on... just in case...

I'll have to look it up but I read a statistic not too long ago from either a Kopel or Kates study that said police officers shoot the wrong person at a rate 6.5 times higher than armed civilians in certain types of confrontations/disturbances.
It's not because cops suck at their jobs...it's most likely caused because they are thrust into so many unknown situations where people, good guys and bad, are waving guns around.
In other words, if you've (as an armed citizen) been robbed and are holding a bad guy at gunpoint, there's no doubt in your mind who the bad guy is. But when the cop shows up and everyone's got guns, it's sometimes hard to sort out who is a threat and who isn't.
I thought it was a given that you are much more likely to be shot by the police than a ccw holder. However it is just a numbers thing since there are so many more police responding to crimes than private citizens. Could you imagine if we had volunteer police like wr do fire fighters?

I just got a Droid. I feel like an idiot. This thing literally does everything.
I know. I wish it screamed "my niece was using our computer since she doesn't have one at home," but in reality, it really just screams "geek."![]()
