Embracing advice from responding police following a home break-in where she hid from intruders, former Michigan State House representative and failed Detroit mayoral candidate Lisa Howze may decide to carry a gun, The Detroit News reported last Wednesday.
The officer told me its time to get my CPL license, Howze told the press. I had resisted for a long time, saying, no, Im not getting a gun, Im not getting a gun. Now Im not resisting.
Why a concealed carry permit would be useful in a home robbery was left unsaid, so the assumption must be that she intends to carry a gun in public. This has some pro-gun comment posters hopeful that they have a convert and a new ally for the cause of liberty.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
This has some pro-gun comment posters hopeful that they have a convert and a new ally for the cause of liberty.
SAVE YOUR OPTIMISM. These people are elitist hypocrits. Diane Frankenfeinstein carries a pistol in her purse and Steven Spielburg has a gun collection.
What suits them they don’t believe suits the “masses”.
Sorry, but the officer is wrong. The time to get your CCW is BEFORE the crime, not after.
I just love it when a liberal gets hit in the face by reality!!!
Hey, Yo! Lisa Howze, YOU are NOT ALLOWED to own or carry a firearm.
Liberalizm is a disease of the brain. And since you are crazy in the head, you have NO RIGHT to own a weapon under ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.
Need to defend yourself? Scared? Go buy a Pitt Bull and an aluminum baseball bat.
Or, go to the next NRA convention and grovel a little. We MIGHT reconsider.
Not likely, she'll get hers as a typical political elitist but will still go out of her way to deny the rest of us our rights to defend ourselves......
It should be noted that prior to 2001 when Michigan became a “shall issue” state, it was virtually impossible for anyone in the city of Detroit to obtain a CCW permit unless you were a member of the city council or had connections with them......
I have heard stories of some NYPD who are supposedly only trained on shooting their Glock sidearms and nothing more.
