CDC Gun Violence Study's Findings Not What Obama Wanted In fact, the CDC confirms most of the findings that the NRA regularly publishes concerning defensive uses of guns, the deterrent value of guns and the ineffectiveness of gun "turn-in" programs. Imagine that.
Could you link to the actual study. Not that I disagree, I just prefer to read the original source as bloggers and editorials are notorious for spin and that author doesn't even bother to link to the study which means he is a rank amateur and I don't trust him.
Not sure if this is it. http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=18319 - - - Updated - - - Believe it is. Here is another link. http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=18319&page=
OK thanks.......nuts its not free though. I thought government studies were free to the public at least the ones I have looked at have been. I know the CDC study done back during the Bush administration was free although that was years ago. Edit: nm.......DUH! there is a free online version.
Let us START with the title "priorities for research to reduce the threat of fire-arm related violence" Actually does NOT sound like it is actually either a) an actual research paper or b) would contain the conclusions that the editorial mentioned in the OP maintains that it does
I don't know, I think that pretty much started an interest for me to read, then when they posted the other details...kinda clinched it for me. Seems pretty straight forward.
hardly an editorial or anecdotal exploration. Pretty definitive The second link ( http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=18319&page= ) Gives the report in its entirety. Already attacking a good source.............why is that? Just because you don't want to accept it?
