I once heard a retired former Soviet military official comment in an 
interview (after the break up of the Soviet Union) that the United States 
would perhaps be the most difficult nation to conquer and occupy because

pronouncement for or against guns, just an interesting observation from a 
former adversary.

states that 
allow concealed carry firearms. Oddly enough, those states have lower 
violent 
crime rates than those that restrict firearms carry...
