For every CC that is robbed of gun, there are dozens who do great service in protecting themselves and others.

“For every CC that is robbed of gun, there are dozens who do great service in protecting themselves and others.”

It is more like millions.

There are about 12-15 million people with concealed carry permits. I have only documented a few that have been attacked and had their gun stolen.

It is probably about 2 million to one for the ratio.

For open carry, it is likely about the same. We do not know how many people open carry, because most states do not require a permit, and there are only five states that prohibit it in most public places.

So these instances are extremely rare.

I would like to see all Second Amendment supporters adopt a version of the Reagan Doctrine.

All legal carriers are exercising their Second Amendment Rights, and all should be supported.
