Also, the Violence Policy Center, which supports more firearm regulation, has used public records to point out that the authorities in Texas arrest an average of two concealed-carry licensees a month for especially violent crimes, such as homicide, kidnapping and rape. And what percentage of those arrests are actually prosecuted? What percentage are arrested as a matter of course, leaving the DA to determine if the shooting was not a homicide, but was in fact self defense, resulting in the charges being dropped? According to the DPS website statistics available online, VERY FEW TX CHL holders are CONVICTED of much of anything. Here is the lastest data posted: http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/administration/crime_records/chl/convrates.htm VPC is full of BS.
