Re: As you go about your daily activities in Greater Memphis
Posted: Mon Mar 12, 2007 5:15 pmDear CA:
The fact is; everywhere in the U.S. that citizens are legally armed, violent crime has been reduced. It is also true, that the carry permit holders of our country have an outstanding, good record for safety, using good judgment and lawfulness. I "feel" safer; because I AM safer, having the tools and training to protect myself and my loved ones in the Memphis area, that has so many violent predators. The most preferable outcome to a violent confrontation, is to avoid it to begin with, if at all possible.
Sincerely,
Pat McGarrity
