Concealed Carry Laws - No Increase in Crime

While there is no way anti-rights people will admit this, the fact of the matter is that liberalized concealed carry laws have NOT increased violent crime.  Mike Stuckey, writing in this 2010 MSNBC article,  agrees:

"Statistics from the national Centers for Disease Control do indicate that the murder and mayhem predicted by many opponents of concealed-carry laws have not come to pass. But even that point, while celebrated by gun-rights activists and conceded by some concealed-carry opponents, is disputed by others.
Both sides do agree on one thing: More Americans than ever are carrying hidden guns."
 Oh, gosh! More guns in public does not mean more crime.  Joan, what ever will you say to that!
