Blah, blah, blah for ignore the facts, listen to the two men in the white lab coats.
The gun control crusade today is like the Prohibition crusade 100 years ago. It is a shared zealotry that binds the self-righteous know-it-alls in a warm fellowship of those who see themselves as fighting on the side of the angels against the forces of evil. It is a lofty role that they are not about to give up for anything so mundane as facts-- or even the lives of other people. ~ Thomas Sowell

Sorry Reiv, I'll stick with the raw data because you have shown nothing to prove your hypothesis at this point.
That will only ensure a complete inability to support your argument. I know that's a quite popular outcome amongst you fellows, but try to break the tradition!

No, I just want a straight answer with none of the trimings.
You should be asking for a 'non-biased' answer
Guru
The idea some want to push is that "more guns=more violence" which has not been proven yet and the "raw facts" disprove.

Raw data cannot prove or disprove. It can only be used within an empirical methodology that can reject or fail to reject. Basic stats!

In other words, no one has proved "more guns=more crime".

The hypothesis cannot be rejected, nor can the hypothesis "more guns=less crime".
