I've been in a debate on another forum with someone that believes issuing CCW permits in his state would lead to more violent crime.
He wasn't swayed by the facts I gave him (State of Florida, crime rate for permit holders), and get the feeling he just doesn't like the idea of 'regular' people carrying around firearms.
So what do you tell (or show) people to convince them CCW permits aren't the end of the world, and might even be a great idea?
I've invited him here, wether he shows up or not I'd still like to talk about it.
(on a side note, I believe the Second Amendment is permit enough for anyone, but that's probably a different discussion.)
