Police chiefs are political hirelings of liberal city councils and mayors.
They keep repeating the same pablam.
Kentucky's sheriffs and street patrolmen are a different matter.

The last I heard, Joe stopped carrying a mouse gun.

''They don't think that putting more weapons out on the street is the way to solve crime.'' NOTICE THIS SENTENCE. He is not thinking about preventing crime. He is thinking about
SOLVING
crimes.
Before you can solve a crime it must be committed. And if is is commiteed on you, you are the victim.
He is saying that you haveing a gun, does not help him catch your killler.
But if you have a gun you will not be killed.
The cops are concerned about catching killers... not keeping you alive.

Usually this newspaper is anti-gun in it's content.
They can't deny this occurance with my friend Joe, however.
Carrying concealed did save his life that day.

The last I heard, Joe stopped carrying a mouse gun. Mouse gun beats no gun at all. But Joe was lucky. .25 cal rarely stops a perp in his tracks.
My most carried gun is a Colt .380. I consider it to be a rat gun. If I was built a little larger I would carry a small .45 cal.

Good idea Dan.

That Colt will do the job most times.
Do what you're comfortable with.
I'm carrying a small Kel Tec P-11 9mm.

Cops are not even required to put themselves in danger trying to save your life. We are on our own out here folks, by the time you reach for your cell phone most crimes against you have been committed. Should you get off a call to police ten minutes is the arrival time, and if the police consider the situation hot, they will not come in to see how you are doing fighting off your attacker. I'll take my chances protecting myself if no one likes that idea they can go spit.

You are so correct!

I'm so suprised!! Yeah right. It is wonderful to see a newspaper article like this.
To: the irate magistrate
You mean people other than those trusted to guard Rosie O'Donnel's children are allowed to carry guns? This is scandalous.
To: the irate magistrate
I used to carry just a reload, now I carry three guns, 1911 strong side IWB, Seecamp .32 weak hand pants pocket and a custom bobbed hammer S&W model 37 in an ankle rig .
Dumb ?, Smart ?, Too much ?, I dunno.....but just as this story goes the .25 worked for this guy and I just like to know I have access with right or left hand, standing, sitting or on my back fighting.........I don't pretend that all encounters will be from a modified weaver stance. Good read, thanks for the bump !
Stay Safe TIM !

People who commit violent crimes - some of them may have had concealed-carry permits... The press just can't resist slipping in at least one backhanded slap at concealed carry laws. In this example, the writer implies that some CCW holder somewhere may have committed a violent crime. The writer doesn't have any facts to support this premise (which would certainly have been included if any such facts existed), so the issue is instead left in the theoretical realm.
Following the same line of reasoning, pigs may fly, or there may be life on Pluto.

Birdwhistell said despite the statistics, the Kentucky police chief's association is still against an armed populous.''I don't think our membership have changed their minds,'' said Birdwhistell, a former Georgetown police chief. ''They don't think that putting more weapons out on the street is the way to solve crime.''
"No amount of FACTS will convince ME, I'm... LIBERAL MAN the steadfast bastion of Left-Wingedness! Some Superheroes wear capes, others tights, but you'll know LIBERALMAN when you see him because of the big L on my forehead. Of course, sometimes I wear tights, too, but not as part of my superhero gig..."

My mouse gun is a Baretta Tomcat, 32 ACP, filled with silvertips. It is a nice pocket gun. Many people would call it a mouse gun.

Good thing he had the guts to pull it out!
