It is all based on lies and falsehoods.
...They ignore that the laws restricting gun ownership and carry came between World War One and World War Two...
It goes back further than that. European Royalty objected to the populace from owning guns because they feared armed subjects would soon become free subjects.
The biggest gun control failure happened on Lexington Green and the road back to Concord. This is burned into the psyche of all red blooded Americans.
I think the only study that would mean anything would be one that looks at total deaths that do not fall under the categories of natural, accidental, acts of war etc. To take one example of the flaws, the study would be meaningless if theoretically all guns could be made to magically disappear entirely but just as mysteriously, there was an equal rise in murders by knives, beatings etc. The other thing that such studies do not take into consideration is how many lives are saved by guns.... that too is not reflected.
Dogeared Page corner.
They like to couch it in saying gun murder rates. Like other murders do not matter.
The entire premise of gun control is to stop the natives of particular countries from opposing what their leaders ultimately get up to. See the current European invasion for an example.
When guns are OUTLAWED, only OUTLAWS will have guns.
