Does an armed citzenry discourage
violent crime, or increase it?
No one who has looked can seem       So, this is an example of something
to find an effect one way or         that both the pro and anti gun factions
another.                             continually get wrong.

                                                     CRAZYIDEAS
A quote from a CDC report, in 2013:
                                              Nevertheless, I'd don't think
  "The 2005 National Research Council         you'll find that either side
   study found no persuasive evidence         is contrite about this--
   from available studies that passage        instead they're more likely
   of right to carry laws decrease or         to seize on this as another
   increase violent crime."                   example of what those *other*
                                              guys have been getting wrong.
