But give an ex-con a gun and there's a decent chance he'll use it to commit a crime. (According to a 1999 study published in the American Journal of Public Health, not allowing felons to buy guns reduces the likelihood that they'll commit a violent or gun-related crime by up to 30 percent.)

Ah, guilt by statistics. (For instance: If you're young, black, male, and from the inner city, we'll just lock you up, and save the taxpayers the expense of a trial.)

The Department of Pre-Crime is alive and well.

How on earth did they do this study? An early form of “gun walker”? Who was their test group?
