That group is shady as hell. I think I made a comment here about them in the past.
Look at the data they use on their site. They selectively use data from various periods of time going back two decades. So, if the crime rate is going down, they dig back to the early 90's for some info. Nothing but "Shock and Awe"..... or shock and flaw more like it.
I love their whole stance on microstamping and stating how it's a law in CA. They do nothing to say that it isnt implemented yet because of patent issues, one person owns the rights, and that it simply doesn't work. Though, I'm sure the criminals will worry about serial number data on a stolen firearm.
I'm still pooling data and more important, criteria used to gather the data used in their "statistics". Me thinks I'm going to pay more attention to them and see if I can have some "fun" correcting them at some point and time. I'd love to debate them.
Maybe Rich and I can work on a website, get it to show up right next to them in google searches and make it a bit more honest. Maybe the CT Coalition Against the Connecticut Coalition Against Gun Violence..... CCACCAGV?????
OK, we'll have to make that work somehow....... but you know what I mean......
