Increase in gun sales results in decrease in crime

If you watch the news, you see stories on shootings every day.

You may have also heard gun sales have been brisk ever since we elected President Obama.

Last year, the handgun ammo shelves were empty.

Every state now allows concealed carry permits. Concealed carry permits have increased from 1 million to 8 to 10 million.

Here is what the lamestream media doesn’t often mention.

While all these concealed carry permits and increased gun sale sales have gone on, crime goes down year after year.

The FBI’s Uniform Crime Report from 2013 shows violent crime across the U.S.A. has fallen by 5.4 percent.

Robberies are down 1.8 percent. Rape is down 10.6 percent. Homicide’s down 6.9 percent.

The simple fact is more guns results in less crime.

More guns equals less crime is something the lamestream media will never tell you.

The English have no 2nd Amendment, so they were forced to register their guns.

Then, of course, the guns were confiscated. Then, of course, violent crime went up.

Obviously less guns equals more crime.

In the U.S.A., half of all new gunowners are women.

Some women refuse to be victims.

In the U.S.A., they still have that choice.
