More Guns, Less Crime. Gun Safety: Violent Crime Drops as More Americans Pack Heat | RealClearInvestigations
A new survey of 1,000 general election voters conducted last month by McLaughlin & Associates found that almost 30% of respondents said they carry a firearm. More specifically, the survey found that 13.2% respondents said they carry a firearm all or most of the time, while an additional 16.6% said they carry one sometimes or rarely. These results show a 5.5% increase in the number of respondents who said they carry firearms since a similar poll was conducted in December 2024.
These surveys are needed since a lot of states now allow the carrying of concealed weapons without the need to get a license from the state.
The detailed statistics are interesting to me. Those details include demographic data. I will share one bit.
Blacks and Hispanics also carry at disproportionately high rates.
