| As anyone with a basic knowledge of statistics can tell you, correlation does not equal causation. What that study from Everytown, a well known gun control advocacy group, did not mention was any mass shooting that tighter background checks would have prevented because there aren't any. |

"A new study by gun-control advocacy organization Everytown shows that states that require background checks prior to handgun purchases experience significantly fewer mass shootings than other states."
So how many of the mass-shootings happened in places where possession of guns by the GOBLINS as well as their VICTIMS was totally prohibited? |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
