FACT: There are many reports of concealed carry permit holders stopping crimes, including potential mass murders.
In a survey of more than 15,000 law enforcement officers, 91 percent said concealed carry should be permitted to citizens without question and without further restrictions.

That anyone who carries a gun, just wants the opportunity to kill another human being. Actually had this said to me, by a coworker m because we disagreed about China Virus. True story.
Been told that myself. By more than one person @45IPAC
What does the Chicom virus have to do with carrying a firearm?
And if anyone had any doubts the left has mental issuesā¦
Great article. Now I just have to find a way to remember these stats and then convince a Democrat to listen to me
To many to list, most of what gun grabers state as fact. My favorite " you have an assault rifle!!! You donāt care about the children!!! The children!!!"
.
I donāt have an assault rifle I have a semi automatic hunting rifleā¦ Only the military and criminals have assault rifles as they have fun switches on theirs. And I do think about the children. They are one of the reasons I carry and think some teachers should be armed or have school resource officers because carrying in schools is illegal
Or worseā¦ the āfully semi-automaticā
Nothing. The guy was losing the discussion, and knew he didnāt have anything left to argue his point.
Hereās another good one,
You donāt have aim a shotgun.
I hate arguments against buying a handgun with a safety. I you know your weapon there shouldnāt be a problem
Biden/Harris is pro 2nd amendment. They donāt want to take your guns they just want to regulate them.
Jesus wept.
The children, you donāt care about the children. When more people get kicked to death, or more people die by hammers, you actually run a pretty good chance this year in Australia of dying by a Great White Shark Attack,(they are way up this year) and good sweet lord the drunk drivers. When all of those and a few dozen things all get banned.
Then I might sit down long enough to tell you that there are approximately 1-2.5 million defensive stops of crimes by the defensive use of a gun. I might also take the time to tell you that LEO of all types is 7 times more likely to be convicted of a crime than a concealed carrier is.
I might even blow your fragile little mind and tell you that legal gun owners ( bought more guns on Black Friday 2019 than the U.S. Marines Corps did for an entire year.) Also that we have between 350-600 million firearms in private hands, as well as several trillion rounds of ammunition.
I would say if legal gun owners were the problem the world would know it.
The one Iāve been hearing more is that a standard concealed carry course is enough training
Hmmm 
@Spence, based on thatā¦ all drivers are potential drunk drivers, they are drunk drivers who have not had their āmishapā yet. Perhaps we should ban their cars.
I just had a small debate with a coworker who insists that āno political party or politician is really interested in disarming the American peopleā¦ā He says itās only hyperbolic language that is meant to galvanize folks like myself (Pro 2A) to anger. He refused to accept any evidence I presented. Just casually dismissed itā¦ Who, he argued, is going to confiscate the hundreds of millions of firearms?
ā¦ Is this guy serious?
Undoubtedly. However, he misses the pointā¦or heās being disingenuous.
On the one hand, if the āhyperbolic languageā is really only intended to anger others, why say it at all? What else is being hyperbolically delivered that we shouldnāt believe? Is there anything on the platform that is truth? If not, why is it on the Democratic platform in the first place?
On the other hand, if the language is not hyperbolic at all (and I think it is quite genuine), not only do those of us who are pro-2A have every reason to worry, so does he. He just doesnāt know it yet.
Hey cāmon man theyāre working on it
Sounds like that person was contradicting themselves. If the person or politician is NOT advocating for disarming the people, why would said person/politician also use language to incite anger in 2A proponents?
Of course you and I agree: OBVIOUSLY they want to disarm us, and to use any displays of anger or frustration on our part, or our basic 2A advocacy, to paint us a nut-jobs. Always maintain your composure in such face-to-face discussions. Showing anger validates their point, even if erroneous.
A good book on the matter, in case you donāt already have itā¦
