More Californians Obtain Carry Concealed Weapon Licenses

Twenty-eight percent more Californians carry concealed weapons legally than in 2000, says the LA Times, likely a reaction to September 11th. The City and County of Los Angeles issue far fewer concealed weapons licenses than other jurisdictions. Sheriff Lee Baca, David Yochelson, Attorney and plaintiff in a lawsuit against the City of LA and the LAPD over the issuance of concealed weapons permits, and John Lott, Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute join Host Larry Mantle to discuss how concealed weapons licenses are issued, and why LA City and County are so tough on giving them to citizens.
