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? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
