That’s a telling statement. Where do you find the studies/stats that show that?
That fact was bandied about almost 20 years ago.
Partially IMO, it points to the fact that criteria for concealed carry is more stringent than criteria to become a cop.
On another, psychological level, though, it illuminates the fact that little people like you and me do not have a powerful union protecting us, and we know it, and act accordingly. I posit this is the overriding factor: fear of going to prison.
Police, on the other hand, sometimes act with abandon because they think there won’t be consequences for their actions. A lot of times they are right!
“Concealed Handgun License owners, who regularly carry their weapons, have a homicide rate that is just 1/12th of that of the questionably low rate amongst police officers.”
