Good info. Unfortunately in terms of anti-gunners, you can't fix stupid, no matter what the facts bear out. Any time pertinent facts are brought to the anti-gunners' table, their response is pretty much like the kid in school who covers his ears and screams "lalalalala... I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"

 

Willful ignorance is absolutely the worst kind.

They reason this study has largely been baried is they didn't get the results they were looking for.  I am sure the study was start to prove that lowing gun ownership would make people safer a grant was done to prove it and in the end they disproved their theory but since they took a grant to do the review they had no choice but to publish.

But that's not what Obama told us the other day...     He said the States with the most gun laws had the lowest crime rates.    Surely he speaks the truth...

the government, the left, the low information voter, the freeloader, and other dirt bags don't care what the facts are.  they do not want us, the normal person, to have guns.  any type of gun.  they know if we have guns they can not control us.
