reading and understanding is fundamental!

It was funded with tax payer money from the university. That is what universities do, research.

And since the gun industries have lobbied congress to stop collection of gun statistics at the federal level to hide the truth of their costs to society.

If the statistics were on their side and guns did do the things they claim, the gun industries would be all about collecting ALL data for dissemination.

You are welcome to read and not scan the report and actually submit your own study for peer review as a rebuttal.

If you are trying to attack the messenger by suggesting the financiers have an agenda and they were working back from a predetermined disposition then good luck with that.
