4. I see where you got this.. |
|
though you didn't even bother to credit your source. Which is understandable considering where it came from. Here I'll do it for you: http://www.csgv.org/issues-and-campaigns/concerns-about-concealed-carry/crimes-by-virginia-concealed-handgun-permit-holdersNo offense, but can't you do anything but cut and paste? I mean, it would be nice if you at least left a comment.

7. What are you going to do about it? |
|
Are you going to work to repeal CCW in your home state, or anywhere else? Have you started passing around petitions yet? Scheduled a meet up for more gun control in your living room?
Or just try and score a few cheap points with a typical cut, paste and leave post again?
Let us all guess.

8. 10 examples, spanning at least 3 years, out of some 200,000 permit holders |
|
These 10 anecdotes represent .005% of CCW permit holders in Virginia.

10. I'm sure that Major Hasan would have never shot anyone without a CCW |
|
Other than the shooting happening 900 miles from the state he had his license in and possessing the gun illegally on base, I'm confident he would have never gone on a shooting spree if he hadn't have been "emboldened" by the idea of CCW.
IIRC the military still deals with killers using the firing squad, so everyone concerned about too many CCW permits floating around can feel better there will be one less permit in a year or so.

12. Statistical proof that gun owners are a safe group. |
|
Certainly safer than licensed doctors and licensed drivers.
