I get that you don’t like the NRA tactics, and I respect that. However, gun ownership is a PROVEN deterrent to crime. Where gun control is in place like you are describing, crime is through the ROOF! The Constitutional carry states collectively have the lowest violent crime rates in the country. In states where conceal carry permits are available, CHL holders are statistically less likely to have a firearms related charge against them than police officers themselves. Outlaw guns and the outlaws will be the only ones with one. Ever heard of Chicago?
