where did your points come from? Can you find were Kleck did that or did Hemeway pull it out of his ass like accusing Gertz's employees of faking the evidence?
Before you do the "blind study" bit, what steps did Hemenway take to avoid the same problem? I don't remember you mentioning that.
I was not hiding behind anything, I just gave his own words.

The Scalia interpretation is what? gejohnston Dec 2011 #61

Umm... no that's not what Heller basically amounted to. DanTex Dec 2011 #63

Get back to me once you graduate from third grade. DanTex Dec 2011 #87

I will, IF you spare me and everyone else, your ignoring of fact. beevul Dec 2011 #85

Oh dan.... We_Have_A_Problem Dec 2011 #102

We really don't have registration or licensing We_Have_A_Problem Dec 2011 #17

You have confused "victimized" with "punished". ManiacJoe Dec 2011 #13

So why punish more innocent people? Atypical Liberal Dec 2011 #30

That whole argument depends on the assumption that licensing and registration wouldn't do anything. DanTex Dec 2011 #35

Its not assumption We_Have_A_Problem Dec 2011 #36

Fact? LOL. DanTex Dec 2011 #37

It isnt "NRA propagand" We_Have_A_Problem Dec 2011 #39

Actually, the issues are far more complicated than you would like them to be. DanTex Dec 2011 #41

back to your patronizing self I see? gejohnston Dec 2011 #42

Speaking of cognitive issues, have you really forgotten our previous discussions about Kleck et al? DanTex Dec 2011 #43

since he addressed that gejohnston Dec 2011 #44

Would you be so kind as to find exactly where he addresses the points I made? DanTex Dec 2011 #47

"Tens of thousands of people lose their lives every year due to gun violence." PavePusher Dec 2011 #45

31,224 firearm-related deaths in 2007 DanTex Dec 2011 #48

How many due to actual "gun violence", i.e. crimes? PavePusher Dec 2011 #50

Ah yes, the old "suicides don't count". One of the classics! DanTex Dec 2011 #51

No, they do not count as "violent crime". Stop conflating the two. n/t PavePusher Dec 2011 #57

Funny how you just swapped out "gun violence" for "violent crime". DanTex Dec 2011 #59

"gun violence" is a buzz term to add suicides gejohnston Dec 2011 #62

Actually, the "suicides and accidents don't count" talking point was devised by gun propagandists... DanTex Dec 2011 #64

more likely we are both right gejohnston Dec 2011 #66

By "rather absurd", I assume you mean that it is the consensus opinion... DanTex Dec 2011 #69

as usual you are wrong gejohnston Dec 2011 #86

Suicides DON'T count. Atypical Liberal Dec 2011 #75

It's no surprise that you don't care about suicide victims. DanTex Dec 2011 #77

That's right. Atypical Liberal Dec 2011 #80

Now you are morphing an argument against including suicides in an inappropriate statistical count... PavePusher Dec 2011 #82
