More guns, less crime.

Great post. These results are similar to those found by the U.S. Academy of Sciences, where they found that stringent gun control did NOT correlated with lower crime rates, but usually the opposite was found. Of course, this distinguished group hardly believed their own data and the hundreds of articles, books and other information they reviewed for their study, plus their own results. Could it be the same problem that liberals and anti-gun zealots have, the inability to distinguish between a gun and a criminal with a gun. Disarming law-abiding folks just does not cut it, then leaving the bad guys with guns. Kind of stupid isn't it? Now you take Mayor Bloomberg, PLEASE take Mayor Bloomberg. :D

Amazing how the truth occasionally slips into a major publication. Armed with facts like these, we can sometimes show people that guns are not evil things to be feared, but many people's defense mechanisms will never allow them to come to this realization.
