Yep...more Californians are protecting themselves...
Concealed Carry Permits Soar in Sacramento County
The Sacramento Bee reports:
When Scott Jones became sheriff of Sacramento County in 2010, there were approximately 350 civilians licensed to carry concealed handguns in the county. Today there are nearly 8,000.
That means statistically, in any sizable gathering – at the grocery store, a ballgame or church – at least one person is likely to be packing legal heat.
Jones has issued permits at an average rate of more than four per day during the last five years, according to data provided by the Sheriff’s Department. The result is that Sacramento County had the third-highest number of concealed carry permit holders in California at the end of 2015, behind Fresno and Orange counties, a review of data from the California Department of Justice shows.
