Ohio --(AmmoLand.com)- On Friday the Ohio Attorney General’s Office Released the 2009 Annual Report on Concealed Handgun Licenses, and the numbers are quite impressive.

By the end of the 2009 calendar year almost 200,000 Ohioans had been issued a license since 2004.

Good for Ohio !!! That's good start....
If everyone carried one & knew how to use it,
there would be a lot less helpless victims in the hospitals & morgues..........

50,000 in just one year! With the military and cops failing miserably at providing security, it's good to see people protecting themselves.

Now we just need to allow airplane passengers to carry guns on flights. That'll eliminate the need for air marshals, and we can save taxpayer dollars!

There was a city where they made it mandatory for every home to own a gun. That is all the scant info I can remember. I wonder if their crime rate has dropped a great deal. Maybe someone remembers where this was.

It's actually a country....In Sweden, the government gives all adults a gun & trains them how to use it....
Sweden has the lowest gun related crime rate of all countries in the world !
