JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 25 - Concealed Carry

Adults should have the right to carry a concealed handgun. According to the website Procon.org, "criminals are less likely to attack someone they believe to be armed" (source link). This shows that if criminals have an INDICATION that people might have a gun, they might be scared that the people who are carrying a gun might shoot them This also shows that it can lead to a decrease of crimes. According to David Burnett, spokeman for the group Students for Concealed Carry, "allowing licensed concealed carry would give potential attackers pause and ultimately give innocent victims a fighting chance" (source link). This shows that civilians can carry weapons to defend themselves. This also shows that it will help them fight back, and that will be JUSTIFICATION as to why they shot or injured the attacker. In conclusion, by ESTABLISHING the rule that allows adults to carry a concealed weapon can save their lives.
