Gun buying in California has increased since the 1990s and the gun crime rate has gone down....
Even in an anti gun state like California..the truth, the reality and the fact is that Americans owning and carrying guns in California did not increase gun crime.....the entire premise of the gun control movement is wrong...
More Guns = Less Crime; California Style | CalGunLaws | On Target Legal Resources Online
Nonetheless, gun control advocates continue to wrongly claim that the supply of guns, particularly handguns, defines how many gun deaths there will be. But while DOJ figures show that the rate of handgun sales has grown 250% since 2008, in the same period violent crime fell 23%, murder 24%, rapes 33% and even aggravated assaults fell 20%.
Oh, and firearm homicides fell 19%.
To echo the title of a well-known and ridiculously well-researched book, we have “more guns and less crime.” That a regression analysis shows a strong correlation between handgun sales and falling crime (with statistically small odds that the covariance was based on random chance) positively certifies that California is safer when its people exercise their right to own the most effective tool available to defend themselves or their families.
