AUSTIN, TX \u2013<\/strong> The anti-campus carry professors behind Gun Free UT love to cite statistics suggesting that a concealed handgun license (CHL) holder is more likely to commit a mass shooting than to stop one; however;<\/p>\n

Gun Free UT\u2019s statistics\u2014which are never offered with any type of context\u2014are at best misleading and at worst untrue.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Gun Free UT likes to claim<\/a> that concealed handgun license holders have committed twenty-nine mass shootings since 2007; however, an examination<\/a> of those twenty-nine incidents reveals twenty-six in which licensed concealed carry played no part whatsoever, two in which it is highly unlikely that licensed concealed carry played any part, and one in which licensed concealed carry very well may have played a part. The one incident in which licensed concealed carry may have played a part resulted in only three murders (the minimum to qualify as a \u201cmass killing\u201d<\/em>), took place during a confrontation at the home of the perpetrator\u2019s ex-wife.<\/p>\n

The perpetrator should never have been ineligible to own a gun, much less obtain a concealed handgun license, but still received a Pennsylvania license due to an error in the criminal database.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Gun Free UT points out<\/a> that one CHL holder was paralyzed while attempting to intervene<\/a> in a mass shooting; however, the group fails to include the context that this incident took place in a state with no training requirement<\/a> for license applicants [not that it should be needed] and that the license holder broke one of the first rules<\/a> of licensed concealed carry\u2014he inserted himself into a crime that did not already involve him.<\/p>\n
