More guns equal more murders - study

From correspondents in Washington

Article from: Reuters


AMERICAN states where more people own guns have higher murder rates,
including murders of children, researchers at the Harvard School of
Public Health have reported.


Oz, you are either damned gullible, or patently disingenuous. This study
includes illegal gun ownership, in fact it was specifically designed to not
only include illegally-owned guns, but to highlight them. Nearly every
inner city gang thug and/or drug dealer/trafficker owns a gun or twelve.
And the "children" in the study include anyone up to and including 20 years
of age, expressly including the gang members and druggies who are killed
every day in this country.

Eliminate the gangs and the drug subculture and the conclusion of this study
is completely invalid.
