Dear sir(s):

Some of my beliefs are stated below. I would like to know which of these, if any, you disagree with and why.

 
1. I believe that most of us are good people, and that criminals are rare.

2. I believe that good people should be empowered, and that criminals should be deprived of power.

3. I believe that firearms, including concealed handguns, empower people.

4. I believe that good people should be allowed to carry firearms, including concealed handguns, and that criminals should be deprived of firearms.

5. I believe that whenever more good people are allowed to legally carry concealed handguns, crime goes down.

 
Please note that the first four of these are just my opinion. Item five is verifiable fact for which I will be happy to provide source material.

Thank you,

 
R. Dotson
