Lott- see Chicago and Milwaukee.Kleck and Lott are clearly wrong.Yes people who want to sell more guns don't like him. I get it.
And exactly what gun store do these guys own..........and considering hemenway's ties to gun grabber groups like the former Hand Gun Control Inc. I'm sure that doesn't effect his research......
Hemenway is a hack....he hates guns and uses his research to advocate getting rid of guns........
he even disputes your fake number on the defensive use of guns.....
I'm sure all the other scientists are too right? All for science and studies till they disagree with you. Kinda funny.
hemenway has been shown to be an actual hack, as has kellerman and donahue....they are rabid anti gunners and don't do actual research......
Kleck....started out as an anti gunner...till he did his research...
Lott.....neutral on the subject but leaned toward an anti gun stance....before he did his research.....
You mean other than the fact that all of the research shows they are right.....
And here you go again.....some actual research on the topic....
A 2012 survey of the literature is available here. Some of the research showing that concealed carry laws reduce violent crime is listed here.

But in the real world violent crime up in Chicago and Wisconsin.
And both milwaukee and chicago are disasterously short of police.....Chicago is down 2,000 officers, and milwaukee is down over 240 plus forcing their officers to do massive overtime to make up for it.......
Lott himself always points out police are the biggest factor in crime deterrence.....but...studies show concealed carry can lower the interpersona crime rate about 3-5% once it reaches saturation levels.....
When it goes down it will be from policing yes.
In gun fantasy land maybe. In reality crime is up with concealed carry.And here you go again.....some actual research on the topic....

When it goes down it will be from policing yes.
If they get 2,000 more police most of it will be from cops, but 3-5% will be from people carrying guns and the criminals choosing different crimes.....
Yeah....because they did a background check as they are required to do and it came back okay....so background checks are just stupid........he could have even registered that gun...and it would have been a stupid gesture as well....and luckily he used that drum magazine because those are stupid magizines that are prone to jamming........what you don't know about this issue could fill volumes......

Guy, I was in the military for 11 years. I know as much about guns as you do. I just don't mistake them for, well, your well documented "inadequcies".
You sell a gun used in a murder, your life is effectively over. The government SHOULD ruin you.
Betcha guns never get into the wrong hands after that.
And you still can't have them. If you don't like guns don't buy one.You blame guns. I blame uncontrolled anger. Any weapon will do when one wants to kill another. Take away one, another will be found. It's been going on since mankind discovered blunt force trauma and spears.
Bullshit. We have 11,000 gun deaths a year. The Japanese have 11. The British hae 48. The germans (who actually restrict gun ownership to RESPONSIBLE citizens) have 268.
Less guns = less murders, less suicides and less accidents. It also leads to less crime.
Is sewer line cleaner a real MOS joe........so was it really 11 years in the military?
And you still can't have them. If you don't like guns don't buy one.
Spoken like an obedient Leftytoon.

My MOS was 76Y. And, yes, I was in for 11 years and got out as an E-6.
But you wannabes with your guns, you just salivate at the thought of shooting people.
And you still can't have them. If you don't like guns don't buy one.
We're going to keep hanging every dead kid around the NRA's neck.
Spoken like an obedient Leftytoon.
You don't think the NRA, which has made it easy for Loughner, Holmes and Lanza to get guns, has some responsibility for their antics?
I would ask WHY, but I know WHY LIBERALS LIE IN HE FACE OF OPPOSING FACTS!You blame guns. I blame uncontrolled anger. Any weapon will do when one wants to kill another. Take away one, another will be found. It's been going on since mankind discovered blunt force trauma and spears.

Where gun laws are more restrictive, crime rates are higher. Where guns laws are less restrictive, crime rates are lower.

The defense and protection of the state and of the United States is an obligation of all persons within the state. The legislature shall provide for the discharge of this obligation and for the maintenance and regulation of an organized militia.

A well regulated militia is sort of hard to carry around with you to stop a violent criminal......carrying a cop around with you would weigh less.......so yeah....a pistol is a great substitute for a well regulated miiltia....
