I'll provide you with a hint: The VPC's "Blood will run in the streets!" pronouncements haven't exactly been proven even remotely correct, with the anti-gun groups now struggling to "prove" that CCW does not lead to a decrease in criminality after CCW reform.

It's interesting to note that a law abiding person has a better chance of being illegally killed by a police officer in the US than of being illegally killed by a CCW holder, despite the fact that there are many more CCW holders than police officers. In fact, according to the statistics published by Texas DPS, status as a CCW holder is an excellent predictive factor for non-criminality, with CCW holders being far less likely to commit a crime than either the population at large or police officers. Kind of makes you think...
