Leave it to the "Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research" to manage scraping up some microscopic "evidence" of the result they're hired to find. If that's "science", then voodoo is modern medicine.

Ultimately, laws such as "one gun a month" are only another sad example of the willingness of the anointed to have criminals to dictate the rights allowed the law-abiding.

To such "leaders", the Constitution is not even a dead letter.

Another study, done in 2001 by the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research, found evidence of a slight decrease in gun violence associated with Maryland's one-gun law.

This is weasel wording in the press at it's finest. "Associated" does not really mean "caused by" It just means found together. All people who drink water die. A statistical test for association would show 100% correlation between water drinking and death. Doesn't meant that there's any causal relationship between the two. I'd love to get ahold of the actual data and run my own statistics on it. Of course anti-gun organizations never make their raw data available, because honest researchers like John Lott would quickly show them to be the liars that they are.

My guess that any decrease in Maryland's crime stats are due to random fluctuations
