We are a tight-knit community of normal, every-day Americans who have chosen to always be prepared to protect our loved ones. Here is some feedback from a member...  Dear USCCA, Your website and magazine have many helpful articles and most importantly, an opportunity to hear from like-minded people who take self protection seriously. For many of us that carry, it has been both an "evolution" from thinking about carrying to a full-time commitment and a "revelation" that we can enjoy freedom to protect our loved ones from attack.

Judges and juries both across the United States and in other countries who decide that a crime is "depraved," "heinous," or "horrible" can assign more severe sentences. Yet there is no standardized definition for such dramatic words that courts already use. And while we may all recognize that some crimes truly separate themselves from others, there is no standard, fair way to distinguish crimes that are the worst of the worst, or "evil." To minimize the arbitrariness of how courts determine the worst of crimes, and to eliminate bias in sentencing, the Depravity Scale research aims to establish societal standards of what makes a crime depraved, and to develop a standardized instrument based on specific characteristics of a crime that must be proven in order to merit more severe sentences. Now, you can have a say in the criminal sentences of tomorrow. Please do. It only takes about 15 minutes to complete. No matter who you are, where you're from, or what your personal and professional experiences are, your opinion counts in this international study to help distinguish what we all can agree on are the worst of the worst crimes.
