I've met overt racists in California too. Thankfully none carry guns AFAIK. All the guys I know who have either carried or kept a handgun in their vehicles were in the south, plus a few in W.Va. and Md..
Are you saying that CCP holders, in general, are not predominantly white males?
What percentage of crime killings are white on white?
What percentage of SD killings are white on black versus black on white?
