There should be a study done to correlate a one year drop in crime after every CCW law is passed.

I predict FL will have a drop in home invasions in the comming year.

Freepers, or the NRA, will have to do the study, the anti-gun MSM will never do it.

The problem of all the studies now is that they come out several years AFTER the crime rates drop. By that time everyone has forgotten WHY they dropped.

It's been done, point your favorite search engine at "John Lott", "More Guns, Less Crime" and "The Bias Against Guns", the latter two the titles of his books.

Or check this Texas State Rifle Association page of links to Lott's articles
