“As a result, the question becomes whether allowing more people to carry guns actually deters crime, as gun rights advocates contend, and whether that outweighs the risks posed by the minority who commit crimes.”

A quote from the story about WI. Maybe they should have a system like MI, every year we release a report that covers the kind of info that the writer is complaining about.

Until then Sanctimonious is what I am.

This article belongs at the bottom level of a out-house in my honest opinion. The Author is clearly a buffoon.

I like how of all the scenarios stated from the study, the only ones that mention a firearm was used or present in was the homocides. Other than that its pretty much up in the air if during the other offenses the offender even had possession of a firearm.
