    | The Violence Policy Center recently came out with another of its infamous “studies,” this time allegedly “proving”—by comparing criminal homicides to justifiable homicides—that guns do more harm than good. And again, the group’s so-called “research” falls short.
 
 It’s no secret why the VPC uses justifiable homicides in their numbers, as most defensive gun uses don’t involve an attacker/criminal being killed, rendering the entire premise of the study meaningless. And while not a scientific survey, we can easily prove that point anecdotally.

                      | "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |  |  |
