Criminals expect that their victims will be unarmed.
Workplace rules, gun free zones and in Wisconsin and Illinois, a general law against carrying weapons in public. In states that allow concealed carry by qualified person who have had some training, passed a background check, criminals don't know who is carrying and who isn't. That bystander or the old woman in a wheelchair [could be a man] can carry and shoot. Criminals have never been shy about shooting people, but they have been loath to get shot. CCW laws make the criminal less safe since now any person might be a police officer, an armed citizen or even, another criminal. It is called deterrence and it works. Person on person crime goes down very soon after a CCW law is in effect. Property crime goes up, which shows that the criminal is looking for safer crimes to commit. Anyone who doesn't want to carry a gun is free to do so, the armed citizen will protect you. But the other way around, you don't have a right to tell us that we can't protect ourselves and our families. -- The people think the Constitution protects their rights; But government sees it as an obstacle to be overcome. some support http://www.usdoj.gov/olc/secondamendment2.htm See http://www.fija.org/ more about your rights and duties.
