Bad enough ,but I would think it would be way more lop sided.

You misread it. The 1% for "only for defense" is actually another percent for yes. Total yes, then, is 47%.


"Only for self defense" is an ignorant response. How could you legislate and enforce such a law?

"Honest officer, it's for self-defense." How would you prove otherwise?

It is not about enforcing up front, but rather an extra charge after the fact. Something else for leverage when the perp is looking at plea options.

I think it is dumb, but I do see some value.

I just wish some of the idiots would realize they are not doing our side any good by carrying...



I heard you the first time ( grin) but that makes no sense. There are already a bunch of laws on the books that add to the charges when a firearm is used in the commission of a crime, with stiff penalties. And they apply in both public and private spaces.

It's just an ignorant-ass question from MSNBC.



A wise man is frequently humbled.
