Indiana’s constitutional carry law went into effect July 1, 2022. Good guys carrying guns can stop crime.
IMPD and the Indiana State Police have both come out and said the opposite.
Just because you want it to be true does not in fact make your statement true..
A quick data lookup shows there is only 1 account of this in the last 3 years and it was the Greenwood park mall incident where he likely saved 5+ lives.
Likely dozens upon dozens of lives lost due to that new legislation, so what is more important, human lives or a single feel good news story that backs up your claim?
If we had normal gun policies, like most of the rest of the first world countries we would be reporting maybe two dozen homicides for a city this size.
In states that have implemented constitutional carry law’s in the past, they have seen a steady rise over about 10 years as gun related crimes plateau at about a 10% higher level than before the constitutional carry law.
So if anything, it’s despite the constitutional carry law that murder rates are going down.
Celebrating the fact that we didn’t hit 200 murders. Wow, what an accomplishment. What were the murder numbers before Joe was elected town drunk?
Some people just cant get out of their deep, dark place that makes them feel miserable about anything positive that happens in Indianapolis.
Homicides were increasing under Ballard at the same rate they increased under Hogsett – until just before the pandemic, when there was a slight drop in 2019 from 2018. Then, the Pandemic blew it all up everywhere, and now it seems to be a natural waning back to pre-pandemic levels. Credit goes to the Police and Peacemakers, but ultimately, the government can only manage the aftermath of trends and curb the numbers. The street drives killings in ways that only the street can fix. Any look at the past 100 years of gun violence in America will show you there are increases and decreases that have little scientific explination.
Murders per 100,000 residents (and crime in general) was much higher in the 60’s and 70’s than it is today. The Good Old Day’s weren’t as good as most people remember.
Oh… it doesn’t help that looser and looser gun laws keep making it easier and easier to kill somebody.
