In the course of the classes I took as a requisite for CCW, a city police officer came in and detailed the legality of handgun possession, CCW usage and response in my city. According to him, in 2006, an FBI survey came through to analyze the average response time to a 911 call in our city and it recommended additional staffing as a result of the discovery that following an emergency 911 call it takes police officers on average 14 minutes to respond to the location. I can put out a lot of fires in 14 minutes with my 'fire extinguisher'.
