What is your stance on guns?

@HoraceGreenley What analysis is that??

This analysis says more guns leads to more killing,

@HoraceGreenley There are people who actually think that’s true

@GlitterEater
The UN Gun study and the Harvard Gun study agree.

This refers to legal gun ownership.

@HoraceGreenley Got a link?? My Harvard gun study says the opposite.

* Guns are not used millions of times each year in self-defense
* Most purported self-defense gun uses are gun uses in escalating arguments, and are both socially undesirable and illegal
* Firearms are used far more often to intimidate than in self-defense
* Criminals who are shot are typically the victims of crime
