My guess is he was not. But that is irrelevant to my point.
I think it must be axiomatic that more people will be shot in road rage incidents in a jurisdiction where guns are freely available, than in a jurisdiction in which they are are not. That was my only small point.
CC is not the issue. I'm sure there are my fine upstanding Texans with concealed handguns. Also: the few Canadian or UK examples dredged from the depths of the internet also don't alter this general proposition IMO.
There are a lot of maniacs out there. And maniacs are more dangerous with guns than without.
That said, we've already agreed in another thread that the situation in the US is entirely beyond redemption because of the number of guns in circulation. I even agreed that if I lived in the US, I would be armed to the teeth most of the time.
But imagine.....
