How does your county/ city rate?

I was just looking up some info and figured it would be interesting for people to post if they knew theirs

DC 2006 population ~ 581,530
Citizens with concealed carry permits 0
2007 total murders 181

My county in Florida:
2006 population ~ 170000
current citizens just with CWL 3722
(most likely 20x have guns w/o CWL)
2007 total murders 4 (2 with firearms)

yep, gun control works

My county in Florida: Orange (Orlando)

2006 population ~ 1,043,500

CCW's ~ 24,381

2007 total murders ~ 105


i dont know if thats good or not but i'd say only 105 murders out of over a million people. i guess thats not too bad. beats D.C.'s ratio, thats for damn sure.

The really ironic thing is that miami-dade, palm beach and broward are the biggest bunch of liberals in the state but they have the most CWL's

Do as I say, not as I do

yea, i dont know about palm beach, but if i lived in broward or dade id definitly want mine. i feel orlando is relativly safe for beign as big as it is. as long as you know where not to go you should be good.

regardless still a lot of crazies out there! and im not willing to take that chance.
