And yes, I agree with the points also.

Edited to add some words from the author:

"I was thinking the other day, not about the rabidly anti-gun forces and how to reach them (they are pretty much a lost cause) but about how much could possibly be done if the more or less apathetic non-gun crowd could be reached and educated. So I came up with 10 things I’d like non-gun people to know about most CWP holders.

Tell me what you think and add your own points too if you like.

There’s a lot of misinformation out there these days about people who have chosen to exercise their right to carry a concealed weapon according to the provisions made by state governments.

Here are a few things that CWP holders want people to know about them. Now of course there are exceptions to these general rules but I think you’ll find these things to be true about the vast majority of your legally carrying neighbors."

I believe this to be an outstanding piece of writing. And with regard to citations -- I've been a member of this discussion board for a very brief time, and already I've seen a number of citations for claims listed here, which only goes to prove that many pro-control folks
really aren't that interested in learning the facts.
