As you know, laws don’t prevent crime. They only define it and set a punishment for it. DemocRats seen to think that if they ban guns for law abiding people, criminals won’t have them and everyone will be living in utopia. But here’s a question: At what time in history before firearms were invented did the strong not pray on the weak?

So what’s the murder rate in states that allow open carry?

Montana had a 5.0/100,000 for 2021. 2018 it was 3.2, 2019 only 2.5.

That's just numbers I pulled off Startpage real fast.

Was looking to see if there was a breakdown by county so I could support my WAG about the Big Towns and the Reservations being the major contributors, but I'll just leave that as a guess.

Suppose we can blame the big increase on COVID, or just all the crime we're getting up here with that wide-open Mex border/Cartel druggies coming up here?
