Citty addressed the media Friday, raising big concerns for law enforcement and Oklahomans once the permitless carry law goes into effect Nov. 1.
House Bill 2597 was signed into law Wednesday, allowing law-abiding citizens to carry a gun without a permit or training.
"You'll have more people carrying guns, you'll have more guns accessible. Studies have already shown, legitimate studies now, show the more guns you have and the easier it is to get guns, the more deaths you're going to have. Either from homicides, accidental shootings, suicides. It's bound to increase at a time when our aggravated assaults are already higher than they have been in a while," said Citty. |

| The days of charging a fee to exercise Constitutional Rights of law abiding citizens are apparently over there. |

As usual, this political appointee ignores the fact that the people most likely to shoot police officers (or anyone else, for that matter) carry guns regardless of the law.
It is those who do obey laws that benefit, and by definition, they are not people the chief needs to be concerned with.
Logic 101. |

I believe history shows that the more government guns they have and the harder it is for us to get guns, the more deaths they will cause.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
