Gun Control & RKBA

(4,062 posts)How could I have been so blind! ALL gun owners are simply superior beings who are superior solely because they have obtained guns. I guess the obvious conclusion is that guns are simply a part of social evolution and that to get a CCW (which takes about four hours of classes according to the local ads I've seen) makes you suddenly without flaws.
Since your data shows no exception to your conclusion I guess we can all breath easier. My neighbor is not a borderline drunk with control issues who likes to constantly remind all the rest of us that he has guns, he's... I dunno, what... a performance artist with hyper realistic props or something? It obviously can't be that he's someone with problems cause if he had them he wouldn't be able to carry since the brotherhood apparently is really good at weeding these guys out.
Now thinking about your statistic, one hypothesis about a low revocation rate is that it is simply hard to remove a CCW from an unworthy due to the way the system is designed... hmmmmm...... seems I am not the only person who got that particular visit from Captain Obvious:
