First, violent cities like Chicago and New York City will be forced to change their existing laws, citizens residing in those cities would be allowed to posses a handgun for the first time in years. It would also mean the return of gun stores to those areas. Second, it would expose the true colors of groups like the Brady Campaign for who they are haters of individual freedoms and the right to self-defense; it would also show people that they (the Brady bunch) and their failed Marxist policies are responsible for the millions of deaths that THEY caused by disarming law-abiding citizens within cities like Chicago and New York city. Third, a national right to carry for law-abiding citizens (please read that again if you did not understand what I just said.) So the result will be more law-abiding citizens taking responsibility for their own safety by arming themselves, that I will always upport.
