Yup, no causal relationship. Thanks.



More Guns = More Gun Homicides, Statistically Speaking

In 2008, we explored the issue of whether more gun ownership meant more or less gun violence. What
we found, and it still holds true, was that some studies had shown a statistical relationship
between those factors ? areas with a higher prevalence of guns had higher prevalence of gun
homicides and homicides in general. But studies **haven?t been able to show a causal relationship**
? that the mere presence of guns, as opposed to other factors, caused the higher rates of gun
violence. It?s doubtful, however, that a study could ever beyond-a-doubt prove a causal
relationship. [Asterisks added]

Funny, you cherry pick a few words..... so the rest of the text means
nothing to you? If so, no wonder you are so ignorant and narrow minded.

The rest of the text says basically the same thing. Go read it, or have ESAD read it for you.
