Spokesmen for two Washington, D.C.-based national organizations that oppose concealed-carry - the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence and the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence - said they believe no American city has formally opposed a concealed carry bill before it was enacted into law.
Oh?

Karas said the resolution is not an anti-gun statement but opposes the concealed-carry proposal because it would lead to more gun crimes and gun accidents.Hey, two lies for the price of one!

We need to bury them in JPFO booklets such as "Gun Control is Racist."

The fact that it has had exactly the opposite effect in dozens of states where it's been legal for years does not seem to have influenced this decision. Where knowledge is abandoned, ignorance must suffice, I suppose.
But then, "gun control" has never been about truth, crime or safety anyway, but simply about control.

These people have to get their head out of their @$$. The majority of states have some sort of CCW with none of these ominous scenarios.

Funny thing facts. Seems to be missing in the gun debate from the liberals.
38 or 39 states and the wild west hasn't returned. But, I chicago where guns are outlawed wackos go on a shooting spree.
Yeah boys, tell your lies. We know the facts.

Isn't this reminiscient of Sharon Stone putting a sign in her front yard saying, "Gun free residence"?

Everyone knows the surest way to fight crime is to make it so only criminals carry guns. And the surest road to "gun safety" is to only let doofus drunks and gang-bangers carry guns.
