CCW in Missouri update

All the cries were for blood in the street and road rage. As is always the case, these claims haven’t came to light:

{Sheriff} Merritt says the law hasn’t had the effects that opponents feared.

“I have not seen any road rage, where people jump out of a wrecked car and start waving around a weapon. That’s what people were afraid of,” he said.

Records show 43 gun crimes were committed in 2003 in Missouri. In 2004, that number dropped to 32 — 13 incidents before the law became active in July 2004 and 19 more through December. There were 34 firearms crimes in 2005.

“I think it’s very much a success,” said Merritt.

    Whether or not folks shot up the countryside, it’s a human RIGHT to be armed. The only non-successful part of this is having to jump through government hoops to practice your right to keep and bear arms.

    Who the heck does this sherriff think he is? God?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
