Which would have been the wise thing. However this thread has gotten me "fired up."

3. I carry a gun cause a cop is too heavy.
6. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity.

Too darn obvious. And noone, I hope (I really do  ) we're adults. In States where cc is legal violent crime goes down.

I would like to see non NRA inspired research to support this.
Aside from the "confidence" a gun may afford someone, they are likely to only make a threatening situation worse.
Lot's of studies support this.

I especially like the "Never fight w/an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you..." These idiotic young "Gangsta" wannabes would do well to remember this...

Hey, there's a LOT of anti-gun groups out there, why don't they have the info published? Because it's accurate.
Ohio won't often be mistaken for a progressive state. Before we allowed CC they spent YEARS watching the other states.
Finally, the state troopers dropped their opposition based on the accumulated info and the Gov signed.

One of these days, when I'm not at work, I'll look into it.
But again, why doesn't the anti-gun guys have stats available?
