An argument for CCW

Maybe these clubs will institute a "2 caps in yo' ass minimum"

"The bar was operating outside of its licensed hours." I would be willing to bet that Proof and whoever shot him were also operating outside of CCW licensing laws.

Sorry Thom, but this is about as relevant as saying we should not issue drivers' licenses after an unlicensed driver runs some one over.

I was trying to employ Sarcasm, but the bastard didn't show up for work.

Yeah, he's unreliable at best. Always out drinking at after-hours clubs.

So does anyone see any downside to thes rapper-thug-dickheads shooting each other? Hell, I'd like to find out how to sponsor one.

It is hard to hit what you are shooting at with your weapon tilted 90 degrees to the side, gangsta style, so they hit bystanders a lot.

You can't legally take your concealed weapon into bars, hospitals, schools and various other spots where a gun would be a "bad idea"

That's kinda what I was getting at, but you put it much more succinctly...

We could even make it a reality show.

American Idizzal Fo Shizzle

Last one standing can shoot Simon.

Banks have a dim sense of humour of someone walking in with a gun as well. Cannot understand why??

As long as they do it prior to reproducing and don't hit uninvolved bystanders, NO.

A bunch of criminals listening to and creating violence and hatred-filled "music" (rap), and anyone is surprised that these idiots shoot each other?

It's directly related to and caused exclusively by the drug prohibition lobby and the various governments.

Alcohol prohibition funded early organized crime into the huge enterprises they became; drug prohibition has lasted three times as long, with completely predictable results.

Absolutely. It's time to put an end to it.

It's pretty sad when getting shot is part of the "marketing strategy"

Interesting.

I have thought this as well for a long time.
