2% CCWers. I'm not sure any businesses care about 2% of the population that might come to their restaurant once or twice a year.

But in sales you have to understand the Law of 250. Says that the average person knows 250 people well enough to have some influence on them. If the 2% (a low estimate) population each influence 250 people to avoid a business, then we will have a serious economic impact.

It's 4.5% as of 2011, more than double the figures from 2006.
Can't wait to see what 2012's numbers look like.

Personally, I'm glad he spoke up. I wish more people would stand up for their right to bear arms while we still can.

I think the letter was spot on. And as for taking a softer tone, I've seen letters and even people complaining in person at different businesses over a wide variety of issues who were MUCH angrier and insulting than this and they got results. If the business owner thinks you're a "nut" for writing a strongly worded letter pointing out the fact that he doesn't seem to care about your rights or your family's safety, then I sure as hell don't want to patronize his business. I won't be going there.

2,710,000 people of age to obtain CCW permits in Oklahoma.
122,000 CCW permitted individuals at the end of 2011.

Where did you get your numbers? When I checked here added up those that were granted from 02-11 (176,634), and divided it by this (3,791,508) I got 4.659% of Oklahomans as of 1/1/12 were permit holders and I would imagine when the numbers from 2012 are updated on the 15th of this month that will go up quite a bit more.

If I take your numbers and apply those over 18, 2,855,006, then the percentage seems to go up to 6.187% of the poplutation.

Then if you figure out how many are over 21, it would probably increase again. Then add in people who have other states non-resident permits and I bet the percentage is probably around 10%
