Kaveman and Thirdpwer over at Days of our Trailers keep pointing out that the Anti-2A folks think they’re winning and cite numerous examples of the fact that they’re wrong.

I remember well when Texas passed CCW. Oh how the perpetual hand wringers wailed and gnashed their teeth! “It will be the Wild West all over!” “Crime will skyrocket!” “There will be shooting every where.”
Then the law passed and after a year it was firmly established that the EXACT opposite occurred. Crime over all went down and muggings and car jacking almost stopped completely. I mean those two crimes are just a fancy way of playing Russian roulette in a CCW state! 🙂
