That is the problem. You 'recon' rather than examining the data.
My 'reckoning' is just as valid as the question.
Put it another way - how many lives have been saved in cities and states with less gun regulation?
Where's your data for that?
I have given it to you several times. I also do not make that assertion - I don't need to. Weather or not guns save lives is irrelevant. YOU want to remove a right and as such YOU need to furnish proof that such will have significant advantages.
I wasn't even replying to you.
The question from Mud was 'how many lives have been saved blah blah..."
The only point I'm trying to make is that you can't quantify a negative.
It's a stupid question in other words.
Spare me your ridiculous accusations of my assault on your Second Amendment rights...it has nothing to do with the conversation.
