Everything we were taught and led to believe about gun control is not backed by statistics as this study from Harvard tellingly reveals.
In a nutshell, the UK disarmed its citizens and crime went up. Americans armed themselves and murder rates and crime has been steadily declining. Yet, places like Illinois have strict gun control but Chicago has high murder rates. Newtown took placed in a state with highly restricted gun laws. Even more illogical and tenuous for gun control activists is using the recent shooting in Washington as a platform to push for more gun control.
A thinking mind would at least explore why this is so.
Then there's the whole mental illness angle. Nothing more grey and least understood about human nature you can't get yet they will have you believe more "background checks" is the answer.
It's laughable and makes a mockery of the complexities dealing with mental illness.
This is why I view gun control with skepticism. The prevailing arguments just don't add up to the reality.
Now listen to liberals on the subject.
Incredible, eh?
