[glow=blue,2,300]Over 30 U.S. States now permit "Open Carry (link)" [/glow], where one can carry a firearm in the open (as opposed to concealed), usually without a license or a special permit.
That said, according to the Hysterical-Left, this would mean daily "Wild West" type shootouts all over the USA, with unimaginable death counts.....including Grandmothers, Grandfathers, Women, & Children.
The Anti-Gun Leftist MSM would be ecstatic, there would be a feeding frenzy --- anything to help their Anti-Gun Agendas, & it would be splashed across every front-page --- lead story material on every news broadcast......not only in America, but all over the entire world - day in, day out!!!!
Well Anti-Gunners......why are violent firearm crimes trending down across the USA over the last 20 years, & still going in that direction?
[glow=black,2,300]Aren't more guns supposed to equate to more crime? [/glow]
According to the Washington Post there are over [glow=black,2,300]390 MILLION Firearms in Civilian hands in America today[/glow].......way more than there were 50 years ago.......way more than 25 years ago......way more than 15 years ago......way more than 5 years ago.
[glow=green,2,300]Where is all this Violent Gun Crime you fellas have predicted over the past 50 years?
