From your link...

"There's no firm, solid evidence that the growth in concealed weapons permits has contributed to a drop in crime rates," said James Alan Fox, a criminologist at Northeastern University in Boston.

So you take the one guy in the article that partially agrees with you, but left out the atf agent, the sherrif and fbi study...

I know you probably just missed those and werent at all trying to chop up an article in a dissengenuous manner so ill go aheas and post ALL OF the quote for ya...

"I don't know if you can contribute it all to conceal carry," Hilton said, but he insisted some part of that drop in crime is due to more responsible, armed citizens. More than 275,000 North Carolina residents hold active concealed weapons permits, a little less than three percent of the population.

"The tools that we have show a long-term, steady decline in violent crime and property crime both nationally," said James Brunet, an associate professor and crime expert at N.C. State's Department of Public Administration. "We really don't exactly know why. We've had so many different crime policies over the past 20 years which may have contributed to the drop, but we can't disentangle them."

I can see in the future two guys with CCW's trying to respond to a shooting, and one ends up shooting the other on first sight, in a shoot first - identify your target later situation, assuming they are the killer.

That explains nothing!!!

The moon was closer then, and the tide was slightly more violent, whice made the air a little heavier and decreased oxygen levels, which made people more angry hence a more logical explination than these "facts" you entered. Everybody knows that criminals prefer to victimized armed individuals duh!!! [Sarcasm run over]
