[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2658018, member: 18914"] I agree with YukonGlocker, the data does not support a conclusion that more guns = less crime. However, at least on the face of it, it suggests that more guns do not cause more violent crime which by itself up-ends a tenet of faith to the anti-2A folks. I suspect (not know) that there is some kind of correlation between legal gun ownership and lower crime rates but that is an unproven hypothesis. Hopefully, someone working on a PhD or another book (John Lott, Jr.) would do an in-depth analysis on that. [/QUOTE]
