In order to prop up the fantasy that more guns lead to more crime, they put forward the flawed Duggan "working paper" that relied on problematic gun magazine sales as a proxy for gun ownership! John Lott explains the problems at his site.

Duggan actually seems a serious researcher. A better study that he was involved in with gun shows showed that homicides declined in a statistically significant way in the two weeks following gun shows in Texas.

Does Coulter realize she just gave Obama another idea for a government program?

[hoosiermama]

Saw the show. O’Really was thrown off. He didn't expect to hear her comments.

[TigersEye]

Coulter is right. More law abiding blacks should arm themselves. They need the personal protection and they shouldn’t let the thugs in their community define them.

[mylife]

Yo Cord!
All the law abiding black folks I know are armed.

It’s the unlawful ones that shouldn’t be armed, and that goes for whites as well.

We have laws that cover that already.

Statistics show that an uptick in handguns means an uptick in homicides and death.

No they don't.

[Unknowing]

Every individual citizen should have at least a 3-gun battery: hand gun; shotgun; and a rifle. Plus sufficient ammunition and accoutrements for that battery. We would all be safer, IMHO.

If she thinks they need them for protection from White racists, she is full of horseshit.

There are many fine Black people who would be fine being armed against the criminal element in most Black areas, especially in metropolitan areas.

[Peter from Rutland]

I disagree. Look at the crime statistics. Please, no.

[EternalVigilance]

So the woman pushes a candidate for president, Mitt Romney, who bans such weaponry.

Well, such lack of moral or political consistency does make her the perfect Romney Republican, I suppose.

I have scrutinized two of Lott's books, statistical studies of the impact of gun ownership and passage of CCDW licensing, especially in "shall issue" states.

Now if you also read his work closely, you will see where some of the greatest drops in violent crime occur, from the point when law-abiding members of these groupings become enabled to carry a concealed deadly weapon:

o urban communities

o black citizens

o adult women

Putting an even sharper point on this -- where could the greatest benefit in reducing violent crimes be realized?

Obviously, in crimes against the even narrower segment of -- black urban women.

And where does one find the most resounding passionate desire for greater and broader gun control, and resistance to personal gun ownership?

Amongst black urban women!

Go figure.
