Study finds California gun legislation had no impact on gun deaths.

Recommended Posts

Once we get teeny tiny serial numbers etched on all of the bullets, there will be no more gun deaths.

Well you and @BSUTOP25 are both racist rapists. Pedophiles too, but not everyone else is. 

The proper initialism is RRP. That or you can just refer to @halfmanhalfbronco and I as “Roy Moores.”

Has anybody followed the money trail to establish exactly what persons provided the money for this "study"? I would not be surprised if the money was not funneled through the National Russia Association (NRA).

Is your real name Peter Puffer?

I bet like this study, the results of your hypothesis would be inconclusive as well.

Cities with lots of firearm homicides come from both ends of the spectrum ( St. Louis, Missouri (very conservative state leads the nation), Baltimore #2 (liberal state with gun control),  New Orleans #3 (very conservative state), Detroit #4 (swing state with conservative gun laws)

All well and good when it comes to the state, but you need to look at who runs the cities. St Louis, Detroit, and New Orleans have all been run by Dems for generations.

None of those cities have more strict gun laws than their state's.

No but those are cities with high crime rates. The FBI and BJS have released multiple reports about the high recidivism of criminals and I’d be willing to bet a very high number of violent offenses in those areas are committed by repeat offenders who are likely banned from owning a firearm due to their record. 

Anyway, it’s obvious you’re another one of those hellbent on shredding the second amendment so not sure there’s much more to discuss.

Gun deaths near 40,000 which is a 40 year high - 39,773 people died by guns in 2017, which is an increase of more than 10,000 deaths from the 28,874 in 1999.

Crime might be down, but deaths due to guns are up........course one guy commiting a mass shooting commits 1 crime but takes out multiple victims.

And of course suicide by guns are up............and then the gun enthusiasts who exit via the Darwin Awards are probably up also !  Blowing oneself away by accident isn't suicide or a crime.

The Urbandale Police Department says 20-year-old Anthony Taylor accidentally shot-and-killed himself late Sunday night at an Urbandale home.

Police were called to a home in the 4000 block of 70th Street around 11:18 pm on Sunday, December 9th.  Police say he was at a friend’s home when he accidentally discharged a weapon.  Taylor was pronounced dead at the scene.

No charges have been filed but police say they are still investigating.

London's murder rate last year was 1.8 per 100,000, which would make it safer than the largest 50 cities in The United States. Your attempt to draw massive conclusions about London having one more murder than New York earlier this year is funny though (especially when you consider that New York is one of our safest cities).

 

Yes there's a massive concern in London about the spike in murders, but by US standards those are still rookie numbers.

The original point that every time you pass gun control or in london, knife control seems to elude you.  Not an uncommon occurrence for you to argue a point disingenuously.
