As I said above it would not be hard to get a hold of a gun, you can buy one privately, you can steal one, not that hard.

Exactly right.

You would have to prove the connection about stricter gun laws, there could be many other variables, cause and effect is not always easy to connect nor is it wise to do so without a lot of info...but I'm not gonna research since I have two papers to write and a test on wednsday.

Have a good one everybody;
Keep it real.

Good luck on those test.

Meanwhile RTR, the study has already been done: Dr Lott.
