Over the first three months of this year, there's been a thirty-eight percent increase in applications for handguns (according to a story in today's Observer). That's following a ten percent increase all of last year.
Also, concealed handguns are perfectly legal with the right permit. In other words, be careful who you bump into around here.
Increases in gun applications are usually seen as a response to increases in crime. Percentage of NASCAR fans also appears to be a factor.

As a side note, is there a more annoying word than "Charlotteans?" There must be a better shortcut for describing people who live in Charlotte. Queens? Mecks? Charlatans?

Again with the clapping? Seriously, though, what this city really needs is more people with guns.
I like Mecks.
