Reply #8: On shootouts at malls.

You do realize that in order to legally carry a firearm in public you need to live in place that grants concealed carry permits? And you do realize that people who have concealed carry permits are many times, sometimes hundreds of times less likely to be involved in crime than non-permit holders?

CCW-permit holders are among the most law-abiding citizens in the nation. Moreover, in EVERY state that has allowed concealed carry, crime has gone down after the enacting of that law. Every state.

As for armed housing projects, if I am allowed to be armed in my nice home in the suburbs, why can not a poor person in a housing project also enjoy the right to keep and bear arms?
