A Federal Concealed Carry Ban

New Jovian Thunderbolt: Federal Ban on Conceal Carry

This is a very well reasoned piece surrounding the issues, motivations, and outcomes that such a ban would bring. I can’t fault any of the logic.

This comment got me thinking:

Call me paranoid, but I believe the true purpose of such a ban is to increase crime. This will then be used as a call for more gun control.

    I think it is a perfect issue if you can get the snowball rolling: you disarm a few people and crime goes up, so then you have disarm a few more. Because the proposed solution is actually the cause nothing will ever get accomplished, but because of the hype nobody will ever vote against it.

  • Sometimes I don my tin foil helmet and think that these “active shooter” mass murders are actually carefully orchestrated events a la The Manchurian Candidate. Sounds crazy until you recall that Uncle Sam had a little project called MKULTRA.
