Another Mass Shooting, and Why We Need More Guns | NewsReal Blog

The U.S. Department of Justice states that of the total murders committed in 2004, 66 percent were committed with firearms. The number of murders committed by those with licensed firearms was: 4. The ratio of crimes committed by permit holders to total permit holders is a tiny percentage compared to crimes committed by those without permits. Permit holders have to demonstrate that they are upstanding citizens with clean records when they apply for a concealed handgun permit. Statistically, they are the safest and most well informed people to have carrying guns, which is why the law allows them to have them.

This is great stuff... and this is even better

In Switzerland, there are few or no restrictions on who can own, or who can carry a firearm. Switzerland’s citizens are heavily armed, and yet Switzerland has some of the lowest crime rates in the world (despite one of the highest levels of gun ownership). Maybe that’s why even Hitler and Mussolini left it alone.

That could also be why Uncle Sam will leave us alone.......
