Breitbart-
A study on state-level gun control laws in the U.S. shows that bans on “high-capacity” magazines and “assault weapons” do not lower homicide rates.
The study was headed by Boston University School of Public Health’s Michael Siegel and another listed study author was Harvard gun control advocate David Hemenway.
The study, The Impact of State Firearm Laws on Homicide and Suicide Deaths in the USA, 1991–2016: a Panel Study, isolated four states to study ten different types of gun control to see if certain gun controls were successful in reducing homicide and/or suicide rates. Via their research, they discovered that “high-capacity” magazine and “assault weapons” bans do not lower homicide rates. more
FBI study shows five times as many people stabbed to death in America than killed by assault weapons, where’s that outrage?
Wow. I’m shocked that limiting something never used in a crime doesn’t reduce crime.
Shocked.
When there are assholes, hell-bent on destroying America….Facts don’t matter.
prior to the rise of the drug cartels and resulting gun and other deadly violence, there were basically no guns in non governmental hands in Mexico.
Yet their murder rate was double ours.
The favored weapon was a knife.
Imagine that, twice our murder rate with only knives and no guns available.
“Gun control” is not about the guns.
It’s about the “CONTROL.” 😡
And anybody who comments on this is in danger of being doxxed and “Roger Stoned.”
As the politicians live in homes behind walls staffed with armed guards, they’re real concern has never been about reducing the homicide rate. It’s always been about being afraid of an armed citizenry and wanting us disarmed.
