I'm sure the gun grabbers are going to throw all kinds of statistics to shred this, and if that fails accuse every firearms enthusiast that we just don't care about all those murdered children.

Youth murder rates at 30-year low, CDC reports - NBC News.com

Some more good reading:
Obama orders CDC gun violence study, study shreds his position

Study: Despite drop in gun crime, 56% think it's worse


It's amazing , more and more people are now legally carrying and there isn't a shoot out in the street everyday , or peope accidently shooting themselves left and right or just plain mass chaos. Don't believe the hype sheeple, a firearm is just a tool.

I think it is because so many millennials were raised by their mothers. Mothers will raise their children to less violent. Fathers imbue their sons with aggression and territorial insecurities.

Yes because all of those kids in the ghetto growing up without fathers has made them less violent and peaceful!

So in your mind the only reason for this is gun owners are becoming more responsible? I hope so, but I'm sure there are many other factors playing out, including advances in police tactics (DNA, cameras everywhere, etc.)

LOL....yea, o.k., anything to back that up?

Good, cause when all this "CCW" started many years ago, that is what they were saying "shoot out in the streets." Anti gun folks still use a term like that, still to this day...."wild west."

Is that why so many inner city kids with no father are so violent ?

Maybe it's just a North American trend with nothing whatsoever to do with guns?

Maybe that's because gun freaks tell us every day that the entire city of Chicago is nothing but a shooting gallery. (Oh, and that they suddenly care about black people dying. That's the funny part.)
