Judge delays Missouri's concealed weapons law

ST. LOUIS, Missouri (AP) -- A judge temporarily blocked a law that would make Missouri the 45th state to authorize concealed guns.

Circuit Judge Steven Ohmer ruled Friday that the law needed a further review by the state Supreme Court and would have caused irreparable harm had it taken effect Saturday.

The judge cited comments from debate at Missouri's constitutional convention of 1875 that carrying concealed weapons is "a practice which cannot be too severely condemned" and is connected to "incalculable evil."

Hmmmm.... awful strange... all the data from Texas, Florida, and every other state that allows concealed carry indicates that crime DROPS very quickly after it is implemented.

Must be another case of "dont confuse me with the facts".
