Since over that same time, laws such as concealed carry (even open carry) have become more common, and the crime rates just keep going down, no reason not to move on to even more liberalized carry laws!

Of course, it does kinda ruin that whole "blood will run in the streets" thing that the anti-rights activists like to toss around whenever a more liberalized law is proposed -- maybe they'll even stop using it now, since it's been repeatedly disproven...
