OK, I know you're wondering ... what "creds" are the best indicator that someone has their act together, and hardly ever misbehave?

CCW holders have a long history of being the best among us, even in matters that have absolutely nothing to do with crime or firearms. If nothing else, you can be sure that a CCW holder is neither felon not lunatic- however "eccentric" the media portrays them as.

To become a licensed prostitute in Nevada, there are but two requirements: No felonies and no drugs. Lots of 'respectable' folks can't pass those tests.

Yet, for some reason, employers don't want to hear about these documents.
