There are exceptions to every rule, jazz. My statement wasn't meant to say that every single permit holder never commits a violent crime, much like not all elderly people are senile. Overall, I'd say that over 95% of people with permits are decent law abiding people, but to hear the gun control groups talk, you would think that 95% of permit holders are always committing violent crimes.

this is always said when any state passes a law that relaxes the gun laws currently in effect and, to date, none of the 'doomsday' blood in the street predictions have come true.
