They have just released an issue paper by yours truly and David Kopel that includes the details of the various states that have adopted non-discretionary concealed carry permit laws, and includes details of what happened to murder rates before and after the adoption of those laws. I believe they are charging $6 for it. -- Clayton E. Cramer {uunet,pyramid}!optilink!cramer My opinions, all mine!
