Not having lived too far from Kennesaw, I know that before the law was enacted, it was an unsafe place to live. The people there are happy about the law, it isn’t forced upon them. Knowing that it exists causes criminals to think twice about doing something to one of Kennesaw’s citizens.
Living in Los Angeles, where you couldn’t get a concealed carry permit if you PAID for it (and LA is all about getting paid), I wonder why we don’t have better laws about gun rights here.
The crime is SO high, and criminals are going to carry weapons whether anyone says it’s ok or not. So here, the only people hurt by it are the normal citizens who are not given the right to protect themselves. And if there is a liberal place in this nation, it’s Los Angeles.
Oh, and those laws were enacted WAAAAY before Obama.
