I guess the concealed weapon drove the owner to crime.

All of the law enforcement killings were committed with guns.

So the non-LEO statistics include many instances of Concealed Permit holders pushing people out of windows? Good to know.

I’m not clicking the link. Does it say how many of the 152 deserved to be shot?

Violence Policy Center is a left wing hate group. They are no different than the KKK, etc.

Anything they say is on the same level as any other Nazi-like organization.

Somewhere between 16000 and 18000 shooting homicides occur each year in the USA. This is a mulli-year sample.

Without knowing the circumstances of each of these shootings, the data is totally meaningless. Like most leftist out of context drivel.

I wonder how many USA citizens and other people illegal aliens kill each year?

That is 53 a year.

53/300,000,000 = 00.0000176667%

Not even statistically viable.

What percentage of the total number of concealed carry holders is this?

What percentage of the total number of gun crimes does this represent?

How many of the incidents occurred while the person was carrying, as opposed to while the person was at home?

So many questions, so little knee-jerk emotion....

Concealed Handgun Permit Holder: Randy Reddick Jr. PENDING
Date: February 27, 2010
People Killed: 1
Circumstances: On February 27, 2010, a 10-year-old boy unintentionally shot and killed his older brother, Randy Reddick III, age 11, with his father’s 40-caliber Glock pistol. The boys’ father, Randy Reddick Jr., had forgotten to take his handgun out of the unlocked console of his Dodge pickup truck parked at the family’s Deerfield Beach residence when he asked the boys to retrieve his hat and coat from the vehicle’s front seat. A neighbor, Spencer Waymen, who was helping unload a moving van across the street, witnessed the shooting. Said Waymen, “Before I could get out of the U-Haul, the gun went off.” As he approached the scene, he saw the older boy lying on the ground in a pool of blood with a gunshot wound to the right side of his face. His younger brother jumped out of the truck yelling, “It went off by itself! I killed my brother!” According to news reports, the boys’ sister and father raced out of their apartment and became “hysterical.” Randy Reddick Jr., 31, had a valid concealed handgun permit.

I'm sure the 10 year old boy wasn't a CCW holder. Now they are counting accidents as murders by CCW holders?

Concealed Handgun Permit Holder: Narcisse “Nas” Antoine PENDING
Date: June 1, 2009
People Killed: 1
Circumstances: On June 1, 2009, Narcisse “Nas” Antoine allegedly shot and killed Brandon Thomas and wounded Jeffrey Thompson after an incident outside the Mystique Lounge in West Palm Beach. Antoine had a concealed handgun permit. According to his lawyer, Antoine was threatened by the two men and acted in self defense. Antoine was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder.

Another self-defense counting the aggressor as "murdered." This document, if it wasn't so serious, would be laughable.

One other thought. We see more murders than these in a typical liberal produced Hollywood action movie.
