Would like to point out that the idea that more guns = less crime is based on the assumption that almost all those packing are law-abiding citizens.

Haven’t seen any numbers, but it seems logical that as the ratio of criminals to decent citizens increases, the effectiveness of this approach to crime reduction goes down.

Bet few thought they would ever hear a Detroit police chief say this. Actually he's made quite a few good moves in Detroit like stripping the Mayor of a 20 man security detail and keeping precincts open 24 hours.

If more citizens were armed, criminals would think twice about attacking them, Detroit Police Chief James Craig said Thursday.

What's that I hear? Oh, I recognize it, it's liberal/progressive/democRATs heads exploding...

Smells like victory.

Craig has also restarted the stop and frisk program ended by Chairman Young many years ago. I know he was looking into criminally charging dispatchers for knowingly lying to callers after after 2 callers were murdered while waiting for police that weren’t even coming.

Good. Now maybe they’ll do the right and honorable thing and institute constitutional carry in MI.

He also has made two huge raids on known crime areas, apartment buildings, and hauled off many suspects in each raid. The people living there were ecstatic, cheering and thanking the police. It was a sight to behold. I’ve never heard of any police chief in Detroit doing this.

Criminals would do more than think twice if those same citizens openly carried. Do that in Detroit and watch how fast the incidence of violent crime falls.

John Lott said tonight that Jim Noble, head of INTERPOL basically came to the same conclusion.
