YouTube Description
as posted by the channelConcealed carry is becoming increasingly common across America. A new survey commissioned by the Crime Prevention Research Center finds that nearly 30% of likely voters carry a firearm at least occasionally, a significant increase from previous years. The trend comes as more states adopt constitutional carry laws, eliminating permit requirements for law-abiding citizens to carry concealed handguns.
In this episode of The Miller Report: Real Clear Journalism, Maggie Miller speaks with John R. Lott about what’s driving the surge in concealed carry, whether predictions that expanded carry laws have increased violent crime, the debate over correlation versus causation, and a message to critics.
