There are approximately 28,000 active Carry Permits in the City of Philadelphia -- compare that to the five boroughs of New York City where there are 16,000 permits. We were compelled to issue more gun permits in Philadelphia in one year --2003 -- than there are permits in the entire state of New Jersey.

In Philadelphia, how many -- IF ANY -- shootings and murders by shooting were committed by people with carry permits? And how many of the recent murders were by people who acquired their guns lawfully?

Yep. How many CCW holders committed a crime? The mayor's charge is hooey and he knows it.
