I am probably low guessing 20,000 murders, probably closer to 32,000 during the two year period. Oh boy 44 by the concealing carriers. Well less than 1%. About .0012.
parsy, who says thanks for breakdown of this alleged study!
Right, about 1/10th of 1 percent.
And most of those wouldn’t have been prevented by not having a permit.
Weigh that against the good done by permit holders. This consists not only of known lives saved, but of unknown lives saved and crimes prevented due to the fact criminals were less reluctant to commit their crimes, because they didn’t know who might or might not be armed.
