Data Point – It is “settled” with Law Enforcement head Honchos

by

The 28th Annual National Survey of Police Chiefs shows that “76 percent” of respondents believe armed citizens reduce violent crime.
An even higher percentage–nearly 88–stated their conviction that “any vetted citizen” should be able to purchase a gun “for sport or self-defense.”

According to the survey, nearly “87 percent” of police chiefs support national reciprocity of concealed carry permits. National reciprocity would treat concealed carry permits like a driver’s license, making the concealed carry permit of any state valid in every state. This would do away the headaches law-abiding citizens get by trying to remember which states recognize their permit and which do not. It would also make life easier for patrol officers during a traffic stop by giving them a more unified set of permit rules to remember.

Hey, the Left is made much hay by quoting that survey that global warming scientists show a 97% “consensus” that they support AGW, so with similar percentages, shouldn’t the Obama Administration moving any and all obstacles out of the way for law abiding citizens to exercise their Constitutional Right?
