[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you still think that, you haven't been paying attention to the thread. It's a RWNJ fantasy to think he can break up a crime in progress with a gun. That gun is actually more likely to be used against him, mark him as the gunman when the police arrive, and/or cause death or injury to bystanders. [/quote]
Do you have stats to back up your claim that increased conceal-carry rates increases crime?  Or are you just voicing an opinion?  The raw stats show overall crime has decreased as conceal-carry rates increased.[/quote]

According to the FBI, only 3% of active shooter incidents have been stopped by civilians.

Please notice how "an average of 6.4 incidents occurred in the first 7 years studied, and an average of 16.4 occurred in the last 7 years" between 2000 and 2013. And who was in the White House. Thank you for these insightful stats, PP.[/quote]

A paltry 16.4 cases in 7 years but 77,000 gun homicides during that same time that were not deterred or prevented despite there being enough gins in America to arm every man, woman and child.  By the numbers, a "good guy with a gun" only has a 0.0002 chance of ever doing any good[/quote]
