Why get a Concealed Handgun Permit?
The reasons for concealed carry are many and making the decision is personal. The image above may be too late to decide to protect yourself. Don't let this happen to you, or your loved ones.
The U.S. and Nebraska constitution recognize the right of firearms ownership, however just because it is a right, why should YOU consider arming yourself with concealed carry?
Most people's primary answer is to defend yourself and the lives of your loved ones. Carrying a Concealed Handgun is a great equalizer. Whether you are a man, woman, small stature, in poor health, aging, or outnumbered by a gang of thugs, a firearm in a trained person's hands, puts everyone on a level playing field at a minimum and may possibly give you the advantage that saves your life and the lives of your family.
The vast majority of self-defense cases do not end in a shooting. Criminals are looking for an easy target and just having the handgun often will scare the criminal away.
If a law enforcement officer happens to be close enough to prevent a crime, he will certainly act. The problem is the police can't be everywhere and response times to 911 calls can take a half hour, or more. Most self-defense issues are over in seconds.
Statistics and personal interviews with felons, have proven time and time again that a criminal's worst fear is an armed victim.
A study for the Dept. of Justice found that 34% of felons had been “scared off, shot at, wounded or captured by an armed victim,” and 40% of felons have not committed crimes, fearing potential victims were armed.
All of us hope that we will never be forced into a position to have to defend our lives or the lives of a loved one. When choosing to carry a concealed firearm, you choose to live by the adage that it is "better to have one and not need it than to need one and not have it." Refuse to allow yourself or your family to be a victim.
