You appear to accept a lot of studies at face value. I have to admit that I stopped reading gun related social science studies roughly a decade ago. That's when I realized that a growing majority were financed by gun control groups, left-leaning state governments and left-leaning foundations. Many were conducted under the auspices of left-leaning universities. The results were predictable and you didn't have to be a statistician to see how the studies were designed and data was distorted to reach a politically motivated conclusion. Has this area of research cleaned up its act? How do you decide if a study was conducted and analyzed in an unbiased way? Have you thought about including footnotes in your articles? - Thanks for your time!
