Having It Both Ways

According to Brady Campaign spokesman, more people are legally carrying concealed guns even though violent crime is decreasing:

Doug Pennington, spokesman for the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said statistics actually show reported violent crime decreasing. According to the FBI, violent crimes reported to police decreased 2.5 percent between 2007 and 2008.


On the other hand, Brady statistics show that violent crime increases when people legally carry concealed guns.

Got that?

    Nah, that's a Smith with a shrouded hammer. You can see the cocking spur on the top of the hump.

    Front sight too small for a S&W, its the Taurus copy of the S&W snubbie with a shrouded hammer.
