The 14,000 permit holders were just the number for the last quarter of 2010, the number of permit holders in Ohio is much, much higher. http://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/files/Publications/Publications-for-Law-Enforcement/Concealed-Carry-Publications/Concealed-Carry-Statistics/2010-Q2-Concealed-Carry-Stats

Choose any state that allows concealed carry then compare the violent crime numbers to the actual number of times a concealed weapon permit holder used said weapon. Now in just a few minutes someone is going to tell you that there are over 2 million defensive uses of a firearm this year. After you stop laughing, make sure they know there are not that many in Iraq and there's a war going on there.
