The FBI actively resisted access to NICS data about the number of people turned down by race and sex. They denied an access request by the Bureau of Justice Statistics. They said they could not understand why anyone would want to look at the data!

Delusional people interpret (”realize”) and therefore data according to their beliefs. It is the reason the left can cite that data creating a bogus impression with a straight face, having no concept for what that data actually says.

Do you think this is a matter of how the data are perceived and recorded or is it a matter of recording it in order to deliberately mislead?

This is yet another area for the new FBI leadership to address and correct. John’s research is impressive and his organization is worth supporting (yes, we are contributors .)

Also recommend getting a copy of Executive Director Nikki Goeser’s book, Stalked & Defenseless.

Now would be a good time to ask for the data again.
