But it is pointless to try to deny the link between more handguns and increased murder and suicide.

What's pointless, apparently, is to get these investigative reporter types to realize that there's more than VPC and HCI to rely upon for statistics. Kellerman's studies have been RESOUNDINGLY debunked - these were SO flawed and biased, as a matter of fact, that the result was congressional defunding of the CDC - and he still has yet to submit his methodology for peer review. Bellesiles is virtually dead in the water because of his shenanigans.

There's no mention whatsoever about the 2 million-plus who save their own lives every year because they have that gun handy. The author has painted an incomplete picture, and that's unfair to Times readership.
